摘要：

In this paper we propose a time of flight micro flow sensor for aqueous fluids using an in-situ electrochemically produced tracer. The sensor consists of two electrochemical cells integrated in the flow channel. The upstream cell functions as an oxygen producer and the downstream cell is an amperometric oxygen sensor. Oxygen is produced at the upstream cell and detected at the downstream cell. Since the geometry setup of the flow channel is known, the flow rate is derived from the time difference between the signals. There is no need of delicate microstructures in the sensor. The measurement results are accurate and stable in virtue of its working mechanism.
