Large-area, size-controlled and transferable graphene oxide-metal films for humidity sensor.

The lack of low-cost methods to synthesize large-area graphene-based materials is still an important factor that limits the practical application of graphene devices. Herein, we present a facile method for producing large-area graphene oxide-metal (GO-M) films, which are size controllable and transferable. The sensor constructed using the GO-M film exhibited humidity sensitivity while being unaffected by pressure. The relationship between the sensor's resistance and relative humidity followed an exponential trend. The GO-Mg sensor was the most sensitive among all the tested sensors. The facile synthesis of GO-M films will accelerate the widespread utilization of graphene-based materials.
