<p>Voltammetric method for measuring humidity of the mixture of a ferrocene compound containing a single iron atom and a multiferrocene compound, the method comprising . determining, at a humidity of interest, a first peak potential at which a first electrochemical reaction of the mixture of a ferrocene compound containing a single iron atom and a multiferrocene compound occurs; . determining, at the humidity of interest, a second peak potential at which a second electrochemical reaction of that mixture occurs; . determining the difference between the first and second peak potentials; . converting the difference between the first and second peak potentials to a value of humidity. . Also provided is an electrochemical method for measuring both temperature and humidity simultaneously. Also further provided is a humidity sensor for carrying out these methods, and a voltammetric sensor for sensing a species, the sensor comprising a ferrocene compound containing a single iron atom, a multiferrocene compound and an ionic liquid.</p> |
