Capacitance type sensitive element and a manufacturing method thereof
First Claim
1. A capacitance type sensitive element comprising:
- a pair of electrodes formed on an insulating substrate and having opposite electrode faces perpendicular or slantingly formed with respect to a face of the insulating substrate; and
sensitive material disposed between the opposite electrode faces of the pair of electrodes and on both of the electrodes and having electrical characteristics changed on the basis of the physical or chemical interaction between the sensing means and a substance to be detected.

Abstract
A capacitance type sensitive element comprises a pair of electrode pairs formed on an insulating substrate and having opposite electrode faces perpendicular or slantingly formed with respect to a face of the insulating substrate; and a sensing material disposed between the opposite electrode faces of the electrodes and having electrical characteristics changed on the basis of the physical or chemical interaction between the sensing material and a substance to be detected.
A method for manufacturing a capacitance type sensitive element comprises the steps of forming a groove on an insulating substrate; forming a metallic thin film having a predetermined thickness on the insulating substrate having the groove; performing the etching of a predetermined pattern in a portion including a bottom face portion of the groove in the metallic thin film, and forming a pair of electrodes; coating the entire surface of the pair of electrodes and the insulating substrate with a humidity sensitive material, and thereafter hardening the coated humidity sensitive material; and patterning the hardened humidity sensitive material.
A method for manufacturing a capacitance type sensitive element may comprise the steps of forming a metallic thin film having a predetermined thickness on an insulating substrate; patterning the metallic thin film and forming a pair of electrodes at a predetermined distance; coating the entire surface of the insulating substrate including a pair of electrodes with a humidity sensitive material, and thereafter hardening the coated humidity sensitive material; and patterning the hardened humidity sensitive material.
