    Abstract: A humidity sensor having a sensing component and a reference component. Each component may indicate humidity by using a transistor that has an upper gate dielectric layer with a dielectric constant which varies according to exposure to a change of moisture. The sensing component may have its upper gate dielectric layer exposed to an ambient environment. The reference component may have its upper gate dielectric layer with an absence of exposure to any environment. Sensing and reference transistor outputs may be processed with differential electronics to provide an output to indicate humidity in the ambient environment. Differential processing may reflect an output having a high common mode rejection ratio. An example of an upper gate dielectric layer deposited over a thin gate dielectric layer may be a hydrophobic polymer material. Other materials may instead be used. The components and processing electronics may be transistor circuits fabricated with integrated circuit technology.

    Abstract: An illustrative humidity sensor may include a substrate having a source and a drain, wherein the drain is laterally spaced from the source. A gate stack is provided in the space between the source and the drain to form a transistor. The gate stack may include a gate insulator situated on the substrate to form a gate insulator/substrate interface. The gate stack may further include a barrier layer above the gate insulator. The barrier layer may be configured to act as a barrier to mobile charge, humidity and/or other contaminates, and may help prevent such contaminates from reaching the gate insulator/substrate interface. The gate stack may further include a humidity sensing layer above the barrier layer. The humidity sensing layer, when exposed to humidity, may modulate the conduction channel in the substrate under the gate insulator and between the source and the drain. In some cases, the humidity level may be determined by monitoring the current flowing between the source and drain.
