Research Abstract |
We have undertaken the construction of high-performance solid-state electrochemical gas sensors for monitoring automobile exhausts as well as air pollutants by using stabilized zirconia as a base sensor material, through searching optimum sensing-electrode using oxide-based materials and composite-based materials including nano-sized noble metals, designing the microscopic structure and chemical composition of the reaction interface, and optimizing their operating conditions. As a result, specific gas-sensing functions were actually realised in the various YSZ-based sensors
