摘要
We invent new types of ceramic sensor junctions for detection of oxygen. Their electrodes comprise thin films of yttria stabilized zirconia (YSZ) obtained by spray pyrolysis: pure YSZ and YSZ reinforced with platinum nanoparticles. The potential difference of the sensors is measured as a function of temperature and described by empirical equation. In dynamic conditions this difference exhibits a well pronounced cyclic behavior sensitive to the oxygen content. The potential difference logarithmically depends on the oxygen concentration at a fixed temperature, which is proven both experimentally and theoretically. This difference has a minimum at particular concentration of platinum in the ceramics. (c) 2006 American Institute of Physics.
