In this study, planar-type gas sensors using a NASICON disc attached with Pt mixed with Bi2O3 as a sensing electrode (Pt(nBi2O3), n (0.01?30): the amount of Bi2O3 addition (wt%)) and Pt as a reference electrode were fabricated, and their sensing properties to CO and H2 were examined in the operating temperature range of 25?300 °C in dry and wet air. The sensors obtained were denoted as Pt(nBi2O3)/Pt. All Pt(nBi2O3)/Pt sensors fabricated responded to CO at all operating temperatures tested, and the magnitude of CO response increased with a decrease in the operating temperature. In addition, the magnitude of CO response largely depended on the additive amounts of Bi2O3 to the Pt sensing electrode. The increase in the additive amount of Bi2O3 to the Pt sensing electrode (0.01 ? n ? 1) enhanced markedly the magnitude of CO response, 90% response time and CO selectivity against H2. The Pt(1Bi2O3)/Pt sensor showed a linear relationship between the CO response and the logarithm of CO concentration (1?3000 ppm) in dry air at 25 °C and the CO selectivity against H2 was enhanced in wet air, in comparison with those observed in dry air. The interfacial layer, which was formed between the NASICON and the Pt(1Bi2O3) electrode, was suggested to play an important role in improving of the CO-sensing properties., Electrochimica Acta, 155, pp.8-15; 2015}, pages = {8--15}, title = {CO-sensing properties of a NASICON-based gas sensor attached with Pt mixed with Bi2O3 as a sensing electrode}, volume = {155}, year = {2015} }
