Abstract
A resistive environmental sensor including an electrode stack and a sensing layer is provided. The electrode stack includes a first electrode layer, a second electrode layer, and a dielectric layer disposed between the first and second electrode layers, wherein the electrode stack includes a side surface, and the first and second electrode layers are exposed on the side surface of the electrode stack. The sensing layer is disposed on the side surface of the electrode stack, and the sensing layer s in contact with the first and second electrode layers. An environmental variation is inspected by sensing a resistance variation of the sensing layer that is between the first and second electrode layers. The above-mentioned sensor is capable of sensing gases, light, humidity, temperature, and so on. The above-mentioned sensor has advantages of low resistivity and good sensitivity.
