Solid-state electrochemical sensors

Conductivity sensors are not strictly speaking solid-state electrochemical sensors however, they are in some way related. The fact that a variation in electrical conductivity may be produced by the adsorption of a gas on the surface of semiconductor oxides has long been known [182], Sensors of...

Finally, planar, thick-film, YSZ-based sensors for O2, and NO, are expected to reinforce their place in the maiket owing to their rapid response and potential for implementation as multicomponent gas sensors in vehicle exhausts. The performance of recently developed nltra-lean-bum engines and NO, storage catalysts depends significantly on the performance of such sensors. Thus, solid-state electrochemical sensors must reach even higher levels of performance and reliability, so continued development of these sensors is required in order to address more stringent requironents.

A liquid electrolyte contains ionic species which can migrate through solution and conduct electrical current. Polymers have been developed which have this same ability allowing them to be used as the electrolyte in the development of all-solid-state electrochemical sensors.

The purpose of this project is to design, develop, and demonstrate solid state electrochemical sensors for the various controls and monitoring on PEMFC vehicles. During this first phase of the project, we focus on the development of a hydrogen safety sensor. 

A novel solid-state electrochemical sensor for monitoring HCl has been recently developed by interfacing the protonically conducting SrCe03 doped with 10mol% of Nd, and SrCb, a chloride-ion conductor (Ahmad et al. 1996, Fray et al. 1995, Kumar 1997, Kumar and Fray 1997). SrCb is melted into the cerate tube to form a compact plug as...

This article cannot be an exhaustive review on all the sohd state electrochemical sensors which have been developed up to now. The literature in this field is abundant and we in particular mention some recent reviews. "" The goal of this paper is to explain, using solid state electrochemical concepts, the working principle of solid state electrochemical sensors and to show their limits of utilization. This theoretical treatment is illustrated by some examples. Field effect chemical transistors are not described here, and we refer to a recent review." ...
