Abstract

Amperometric electrochemical sensors for detection of an analyte gas in air are disclosed. The sensors can be used in a gas detector to detect the analyte gas and to compensate for the relative humidity and temperature of the air. In addition, an electrochemical sensor having high surface area electrodes, and an increased sensitivity, is disclosed.
