Abstract

The invention provides a photonic crystal humidity sensor comprising: a substrate which is polyacrylamide gel; a photonic crystal material cured in the substrate, wherein the photonic crystal material is superparamagnetic carbon-coated ferroferric oxide colloidal nanoparticles. The invention also provides a preparation method of the photonic crystal humidity sensor. In the photonic crystal humidity sensor provided by the invention, the polyacrylamide gel has strong water swelling performance, and has different absorptivity under different relative humidity; when ambient relative humidity changes, the absorptivity of the polyacrylamide gel changes, and thus the expansion rate of the polyacrylamide changes; therefore, the band gap of the photonic forbidden band of the photonic crystal material cured in the polyacrylamide gel changes, and finally the photonic crystal humidity sensor shows different colors with the change of the humidity.

Description

Technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of humidity sensors, and particularly relates to a photonic crystal humidity sensor and a preparation method thereof. Background technique [0002] Humidity sensor is a sensor that can sense the water vapor content in the gas and convert it into a usable output signal. It has a wide range of applications in agricultural production, weather forecasting, environmental protection, food storage and cultural relic protection. [0003] The prior art discloses a variety of humidity sensors, which are mainly classified into two types: resistive humidity sensors and capacitive humidity sensors. Among them, the resistive sensor is covered with a film made of moisture-sensitive material on the substrate. When water vapor in the air is adsorbed on the moisture-sensitive film, the resistivity and resistance value of the sensor change, thereby measuring humidity; The type humidity sensor is made of polymer film capacitors. When...
