Abstract

nanocrystals showed excellent reversible physisorption of water molecules. These perovskite nanocrystals exhibited reversible hydro-optical properties, including transparency changes in response to variations in relative humidity under ambient conditions. The perovskite nanomaterial humidity sensor was highly reliable and stable, with a linear correlation in a relative humidity range of 7% to 98%. Accordingly, the lead-free Cu-based perovskite materials developed herein have the potential to be employed as real-time, self-consistent humidity sensors.
