Abstract

A gas sensor including a substrate that is porous at least in a region thereof to permit permeation of gas. At least first and second porous electrodes are formed as planar elements on the substrate. The substrate is bonded to a housing in a peripheral area of the sensor. A portion of the first electrode extends into this peripheral area and is rendered non-porous to prevent the leakage of electrolyte therethrough.
