## Description

- description: Nanomechanical sensors have gained significant attention as powerful
    tools for detecting target analytes; however, their signals are often influenced
    by environmental humidity. In static mode operation, the sensing signals of nanomechanical
    sensors are obtained by a concentration-dependent sorption-induced mechanical
    strain/stress. In this study, we derive an analytical model to describe the response
    of viscoelastic material-coated nanomechanical sensors by incorporating humidity
    effects based on sorption kinetics and viscoelastic stress relaxation of receptor
    materials. This model is capable of reproducing the dynamic responses observed
    in the experiments under varying humidity conditions. Moreover, it allows for
    the subtraction of humidity effects, facilitating the precise isolation of analyte-specific
    signals. These results provide a theoretical framework for decoupling environmental
    background factors, such as humidity effects, in nanomechanical sensors.
