Abstract

Humidity sensors are of utmost importance in certain areas of life, in processing industries, in fabrication laboratories and in agriculture. Precise evaluation of humidity percentage in air is the need of various applications. Graphene and its composites have shown great potential in performing as humidity sensors owing to enormous surface area, very low electrical noise, high electrical conductivity, mechanical and thermal stability and high room temperature mobility. There is no such extensive review on graphene-based devices for humidity sensing applications. This review extensively discusses graphene-based devices intended towards sensing humidity, starting from the methods of synthesizing graphene, its electronic and mechanical properties favoring sensing behavior and different types of sensing mechanisms. The review also studies the performance and recent trends in humidity sensor based on graphene, graphene quantum dots, graphene oxide, reduced graphene oxide and various composite materials based on graphene such as graphene/polymer, graphene/metal oxide or graphene/metal. Discussions on the limitations and challenges of the graphene-based humidity sensors along with its future trends are made.
