纳米层的粗糙度对传感器的性能有很大影响。这项研究是为了量化粗糙度对传感器性能的影响实验。可以看出，顶部金属层的增加的厚度降低了传感器性能，即灵敏度和检测精度。通过分别改变中间金属层和顶部金属层的厚度，可以看到表面上的粗糙度效应。可以看出，2-5 nm厚的中间层和50 nm厚的顶层提供了更好的传感器性能。此外，数学方程包括为了理论分析，表明表面粗糙度对传感器性能的影响。(C)© 2016 Elsevier B. V.版权所有。
Roughness of the nano-layer greatly affects the sensor performance. This study is done to quantify the effect of roughness on the sensor performance experimentally. It is seen that the increased thickness of the top metal layer degrades the sensor performance i.e. sensitivity and detection accuracy. The roughness effect on the surface is seen by varying the thickness of intermediate and top metal layers separately. It is seen that 2-5 nm thick intermediate layer and 50 nm thick top layer provides better performance of sensor. Also, mathematical equations are included for the sake of theoretical analysis which indicates the effect of surface roughness on the sensor performance. (C) 2016 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
