Description
TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of energy collection and humidity sensitive material, and particularly relates to a high-efficiency humidity-driven arrayed self-powered sensing system. BACKGROUND
[0002] In smart agriculture, plant humidity monitoring is the key to ensuring the healthy growth of plants. Real-time monitoring of plant humidity dynamics not only helps to avoid water waste and soil salinization caused by excessive irrigation, but also prevents crop yield reduction caused by insufficient humidity, which is of great significance to the sustainable development of agriculture. Traditional plant humidity monitoring equipment relies on external power sources such as wired power supply or disposable battery power supply, which has many limitations such as complex deployment, difficult maintenance and insecurity. In addition, some traditional humidity sensors also have slow response speed, narrow detection range and cannot be effectively attached to leaves, which cannot meet the high timeliness and high accuracy requirements of humidity data in smart agriculture, and restricts their application in actual agricultural scenarios.
[0003] Self-powered sensing technology has attracted great attention. New energy technologies such as thermoelectric, triboelectric and piezoelectric can convert small amounts of energy in the surrounding environment into electrical signals for energy supply and information detection, forming self-powered intelligent devices with dual functions of energy collection and sensing. However, although these technologies can convert wind energy and raindrop energy in the agricultural environment into electrical energy, the generation of electrical signals is limited to specific environmental and mechanical vibration conditions, which cannot meet the continuous and stable sensing needs.
[0004] Humidity generators use the ubiquitous and inexhaustible atmospheric water resources to provide a solution for sustainable energy acquisition. Atmospheric water has natural stability and universality in plant growth environments. Whether it is a high-humidity environment formed by irrigation in a greenhouse, dew condensation at night in an open planting area, or water vapor evaporated from the soil surface, it can provide continuous energy input for the humidity generator. Using the humidity generator to realize in-situ non-destructive real-time continuous detection of plant water information has unique advantages and broad application prospects.
[0005] In summary, the current humidity sensors have low humidity detection sensitivity, and the humidity generators have low humidity energy conversion. Therefore, how to provide a high-efficiency humidity-driven arrayed self-powered sensing system with high sensitivity detection and high-efficiency energy conversion is a technical problem that needs to be solved in the field.

[0033] Example 1 The present application provides a preparation method of a humidity sensitive material based on double carbon modified molybdenum trioxide, which specifically comprises the following steps: (1) Preparation of carbon quantum dots: Fresh orange peel was washed and dried in a drying oven at 80°C for 48h, and then ground into powder for use. 0.3g of orange peel powder was taken and mixed with 50mL of deionized water in a high-pressure reaction kettle, heated at 220°C for 12h, and then naturally cooled. The solution was filtered with filter paper and then filtered with a 0.22μm ultrafiltration membrane to obtain a yellow carbon quantum dot solution. The solution was diluted 10 times with deionized water and stored at -4°C under low temperature; (2) Preparation of graphene oxide by improved Hummers method: 1g of graphite flakes was uniformly dispersed in 100mL of an acid mixture of H2SO4, H3PO4 and HNO3 (volume ratio 70:20:10, wherein the concentration of H2SO4 was 98%, the concentration of H3PO4 was 85%, and the concentration of HNO3 was 68%), and 6g of KMnO4 was slowly added under stirring at 0°C in an ice bath. Then the mixed solution was stirred at 45°C in an oil bath for 2h, and the beaker was placed back in the ice bath, and 100mL of deionized water was slowly added. The beaker was placed in an 85°C oil bath for 1h, and finally 120mL of deionized water and 15mL of H2O2 (30%) were added to the mixed solution, and ultrasonic oscillation treatment was carried out for 1h. The obtained suspension was filtered and centrifuged at 5000rpm for 30min, and washed with deionized water and hydrochloric acid solution until neutral. The obtained precipitate was ultrasonically oscillated for 1h, and finally dried in a 80°C drying oven for 12h to obtain graphene oxide; (3) Preparation of orthorhombic α-molybdenum trioxide: 0.1 g of molybdenum phosphate hydrate was dissolved in 10 mL of deionized water, stirred until completely dissolved to form solution A, 4 mL of acetic acid was added to 6 mL of deionized water and mixed uniformly, then 0.1 g of chitosan (MW = 30000) was added, and stirred until completely mixed to form solution B; solution A and solution B were mixed and stirred uniformly, poured into a high-pressure reaction kettle with a capacity of 50 mL, reacted at a high temperature of 180℃ for 24 h, after the reaction was completed and cooled to room temperature, centrifuged, and the precipitate was washed with deionized water and anhydrous ethanol for 3 times respectively, and the washed precipitate was dried at 60℃ for 12 h to obtain a precursor powder; the precursor powder was loaded into a crucible and calcined in a muffle furnace at 500℃ for 2 h, the heating rate and cooling rate were 1℃ / min, and finally α-molybdenum trioxide flower-like microspheres were obtained; The prepared carbon quantum dots, graphene oxide and molybdenum trioxide materials were characterized, and the results are shown in Figure 3 The SEM analysis of the prepared carbon quantum dots, graphene oxide and molybdenum trioxide materials is shown in Figure 3 (a) and (b) of FIG. 1, the molybdenum trioxide microspheres are composed of irregular nanoparticles, and the graphene oxide is accompanied by wrinkles and folding areas due to the rich oxygen-containing functional groups and structural defects; the HRTEM image of the carbon quantum dots is shown in Figure 3 (c) of FIG. 1, the average size of the carbon quantum dots is 5.45 nm, and the interplanar spacing of the crystal is 0.21 nm, corresponding to the (100) crystal plane of graphite; Figure 3 (d) and (e) of FIG. 1 are SEM and EDS mapping of the carbon quantum dots, graphene oxide and molybdenum trioxide composite material, and it can be seen that each material is uniformly dispersed.
[0034] Example 2 As shown in Figure 2 , the present application provides a preparation of a carbon quantum dot / graphene oxide / molybdenum trioxide humidity sensor, comprising the following steps: (1-1) The carbon quantum dots, graphene oxide and molybdenum trioxide materials prepared in Example 1 are used as prepared; (1-2) Preparation of flexible and transparent interdigital electrode: the ITO on the PET-ITO flexible conductive film is patterned by laser etching to prepare the electrode of the humidity sensor, and the PET-ITO flexible conductive film is cleaned with ethanol and deionized water alternately for three times, and dried in a 60℃ drying box for 12 h, and the electrode for etching patterning is formed by instantaneous decomposition of the ITO film with laser (5W) energy, and the required interdigital electrode pattern is reserved; (1-3) The flexible interdigitated electrode prepared in step (1-2) is cleaned and dried alternately with ethanol and deionized water. The dried interdigitated electrode is immersed in a 38wt% polydiallyldimethylammonium chloride (PDDA) solution and left to stand for 10 min. A uniform positive charge layer is formed on the electrode surface by electrostatic adsorption. After cleaning and drying with deionized water, the electrode is placed in a 30wt% poly(4-styrene sulfonic acid) (PSS) solution and left to stand for 10 min. A negative charge layer is formed on the PDDA layer by electrostatic interaction. After washing and drying, the above steps are repeated to obtain the pre-lead layer film (PDDA / PSS)2. The purpose of this step is to make the humidity-sensitive film firmly and stably connected to the electrode and prevent the humidity-sensitive film from falling off. The dried electrode is placed in a mixed solution of carbon quantum dots / graphene oxide / molybdenum trioxide in different proportions for 20 min, and repeated three times to make the carbon quantum dot / graphene oxide / molybdenum trioxide film adhere to the electrode surface. After drying, a carbon quantum dot / graphene oxide / molybdenum trioxide humidity sensor is obtained. Humidity sensor performance test The sensing performance of a carbon quantum dot / graphene oxide / molybdenum trioxide sensor and the power generation performance of a wet generator were investigated by controlling humidity at room temperature (25℃) using different saturated salt solutions. The results are as follows: To optimize sensor performance and determine the optimal material ratio, the response characteristics of composite materials containing different proportions of carbon quantum dots, graphene oxide, and molybdenum trioxide at 43% RH were tested. Figure 4 As shown in (b), the sensor response reaches its maximum value when the mass ratio of the three materials is 1:0.5:1, further confirming the synergistic enhancement effect among the three. Therefore, this optimal ratio was used in subsequent experiments. When the humidity environment rapidly changes from 11% RH to 97% RH, as shown in (b), the sensor response reaches its maximum value. Figure 5 As shown in (a), the resistance of the carbon quantum dot / graphene oxide / molybdenum trioxide sensor decreased from 13.8 MΩ to 0.6 MΩ, a reduction of two orders of magnitude, and its response / recovery time was as short as 0.8 s / 1.4 s, demonstrating excellent fast response capability. The dynamic resistance response and response gradient curves of the carbon quantum dot / graphene oxide / molybdenum trioxide humidity sensor at different relative humidity levels (0-97%RH) are shown below. Figure 5 As shown in (b) and (c) in the figure, this further demonstrates the excellent sensitivity and responsiveness over a wide humidity range; Figure 5 Figure (d) shows the response fitting curve of the carbon quantum dot / graphene oxide / molybdenum trioxide humidity sensor in the range of 11-97%RH, exhibiting a good linear relationship (R0). 2 =0.972); To examine the reversibility of the sensor, its resistance change during humidity rise / fall cycles was measured, and the hysteresis characteristics of the humidity sensor were calculated accordingly. Figure 5 As shown in (e), the carbon quantum dot / graphene oxide / molybdenum trioxide humidity sensor exhibits minimal hysteresis between 0-97% RH, with the maximum hysteresis value occurring at 75% RH, at only 3.55%, indicating that this humidity sensor has excellent reliability. Figure 5 (f) shows the repeatability test results of the carbon quantum dot / graphene oxide / molybdenum trioxide humidity sensor after switching between three cycles of 33% RH, 52% RH, 85% RH and 11% RH. No obvious response change was observed, which proves that the sensor has excellent stability and repeatability. like Figure 4 As shown in (a), the resistance signals of single carbon quantum dots, graphene oxide, molybdenum trioxide (with the same amount of each component added and the same total amount of all three components), and carbon quantum dot / graphene oxide / molybdenum trioxide composites change within a humidity range of 0%RH-97%RH. The carbon quantum dot sensor exhibits a high resistance (≥200MΩ) over a wider humidity range, and notably, its resistance even exceeds its range (overload) at low humidity (0-23%RH). In contrast, while the graphene oxide sensor can operate across the entire humidity range, its electrical resistance... The resistance change is small (kΩ level), while the molybdenum trioxide sensor only shows a large change in the 23-75%RH range. The change is relatively weak in high and low humidity, which is difficult to meet the signal strength requirements of humidity sensors. The carbon quantum dot / graphene oxide / molybdenum trioxide composite material shows a significant synergistic effect, achieving stable detection in the 0-97%RH humidity detection range. It also shows a more moderate resistance change trend in a wide humidity range, indicating that the introduction of carbon quantum dots and graphene oxide effectively modulates the conductivity of molybdenum trioxide and improves the response sensitivity.
[0035] Example 3 This invention provides a method for preparing a wet generator, specifically including the following steps: The wet generator unit consists of a pair of asymmetric electrodes and a composite material of molybdenum trioxide and carbon quantum dots / graphene oxide / molybdenum trioxide, such as... Figure 6 As shown in (a), the bottom electrode is made of PET-ITO, and the top electrode is an aluminum mesh (20 mesh) to facilitate the passage of water molecules. The carbon quantum dot / graphene oxide / molybdenum trioxide composite material serves as the framework to achieve water absorption and ion migration. The material ratio is 1:0.5:1. Molybdenum trioxide and carbon quantum dot / graphene oxide / molybdenum trioxide are attached to the ITO surface through electrostatic self-assembly. For ease of comparison, a single carbon quantum dot, graphene oxide, and molybdenum trioxide wet generator (with the same amount of each component added and the same total amount of all three components) was constructed using the same method, and relevant performance tests were conducted, such as... Figure 6 As shown in (b), the carbon quantum dot / graphene oxide / molybdenum trioxide wet generator has higher output and faster response / recovery in the face of alternating humidity. This is because the carbon quantum dot / graphene oxide / molybdenum trioxide composite material constructs a more efficient and interconnected moisture and ion transport network, reduces internal resistance, and thus converts chemical energy (adsorption energy) into electrical energy more efficiently. Figure 6 Figure (c) shows the dynamic voltage changes under different relative humidity values (from 0 to 97% RH), demonstrating a significant step voltage response; additionally, as Figure 6 As shown in (d), the output voltage of the wet gas generator reverses the positive and negative signals when the electrodes are reversed, which is consistent with the characteristics of a galvanic cell.
[0036] Example 4 This invention provides a method for fabricating a wet gas generator array, the structure of which is as follows: Figure 1 Specifically, it includes the following steps: To further improve output, a wet gas generator array was designed, such as... Figure 7 As shown in (a), crisscrossing non-conductive regions and nine identical square conductive regions are formed on a PET-ITO flexible conductive film by laser etching. Nine moisture generators are assembled using the PET-ITO conductive regions as bottom electrodes to form a moisture generator array. The array's moisture generator units are connected by copper wires. Under 52% RH conditions, as the number of series-connected moisture generators increases, the voltage output of the moisture generator array increases almost linearly, such as... Figure 7 As shown in (b), when the number of power generation units is increased to 9, the output voltage reaches 3.2V.
[0037] Application examples The carbon quantum dot / graphene oxide / molybdenum trioxide humidity sensor prepared in Example 2 was applied to plant humidity monitoring: To investigate the water status of plants, flexible carbon quantum dot / graphene oxide / molybdenum trioxide humidity sensors were attached to the epidermis of plant leaves and the soil surface, respectively, and continuous monitoring was conducted for 10 days. Prior to formal monitoring, the plants were subjected to a 3-day water deprivation treatment, followed by intermittent watering. A correlation model of plant water status was established based on the detected humidity responses. The response values of the carbon quantum dot / graphene oxide / molybdenum trioxide humidity sensors over time are shown in the figure below. Figure 8As shown in (a) of FIG. 1, the first watering time of the plant is taken as the monitoring starting point, on the first day after the first watering, the response value of the soil humidity sensor reaches 80%, and the response value of the plant leaf humidity sensor is lower than that of the soil but gradually increases, indicating that the soil surface water is sufficient, and the plant starts to absorb water. At this time, the leaf transpiration is strong, and the released water vapor is more; on the second day to the fourth day after the watering treatment, the response values of the soil and plant leaf humidity sensors decrease, indicating that the soil surface water decreases, the plant leaf transpiration gradually weakens, and the water vapor release amount decreases accordingly. On the fourth day, the second watering is performed on the plant, and within one day thereafter, the response values of the two humidity sensors increase, indicating that the transpiration of the plant returns to normal after watering, and the water vapor is released; The carbon quantum dot / graphene oxide / molybdenum trioxide humidity generator prepared in Example 3 is applied to skin humidity generation In order to verify the practical application value of the carbon quantum dot / graphene oxide / molybdenum trioxide humidity generator, based on the principle that the water distribution near the human skin is determined by the distance, the humidity generator can generate electricity by means of the skin humidity, and the non-contact response is as shown in (b) of FIG. 1. Figure 8 As shown in (b) of FIG. 1, when the distance between the finger and the humidity generator is reduced to 5 mm, the output voltage reaches 310 mV.
[0038] The carbon quantum dot / graphene oxide / molybdenum trioxide humidity generator array prepared in Example 3 is combined with the carbon quantum dot / graphene oxide / molybdenum trioxide humidity sensor prepared in Example 2 through a circuit board to form a self-powered humidity sensing system, as shown in (a)-(c) of FIG. 2. Figure 9 As shown in (a)-(c) of FIG. 2, the first red indicator light of the self-powered sensing system is on when it is dry, the second green indicator light of the self-powered sensing system is on when the humidity is moderate, and the third red indicator light of the self-powered sensing system is on when the humidity is high.
