Detecting humidity have been remained a continuing concern within some important areas such as structural health, food processing, industrial as well as agricultural products. In this study, a novel humidity optical sensor is introduced based on the thermionic emission of tungsten filament using the fluorescent lamp set-up. Estimated blue compliant using a charged coupling device camera in optical image of the tungsten filament was confirmed as an appropriate detection system for relative humidity (RH) sensing. The fabricated optical sensor has wide linear range (2.0-98% RH), improved detection limit (< 5.0% RH), acceptable saturated limit (> 99.0% RH), improved percentage of relative standard deviation (4.18%, n = 2), adequate hysteresis (< 4.0% RH) and a shorter rise time (< 5.0 s), respectively. The mechanism behind this detection system is based on the interaction between HO and tungsten filament during formation of W[Formula: see text].x [Formula: see text]O (x = 1-2) in terms of some spectroscopic obtained evidences as well as Fourier transform infrared and X-ray diffraction spectrometries.
在结构健康、食品加工、工业和农产品等一些重要领域,湿度检测一直是人们持续关注的问题。在这项研究中,我们提出了一种基于钨丝热电子发射的新型湿度光学传感器,使用荧光灯设置。使用电荷耦合器件(CCD)相机对钨丝的光学图像进行估算,证实蓝色符合是相对湿度(RH)感测的合适检测系统。所制造的光学传感器具有较宽的线性范围(2.0-98%RH)、改善的检测极限(<5.0%RH)、可接受的饱和极限(>99.0%RH)、改善的相对标准偏差百分比(4.18%,n=2)、适当的滞后(<4.0%RH)和较短的上升时间(<5.0 s)。这种检测系统背后的机制基于在形成 WO(x=1-2)期间 HO 和钨丝之间的相互作用,这是通过一些获得的光谱证据以及傅里叶变换红外和 X 射线衍射光谱学得出的。
