Abstract

The sensor is formed by disposing an electrolyte between and in intimate contact with a first electrode on the one side and a second electrode on the other side to form an assembly, heating the assembly, treating the assembly with an alkaline solution and removing the impurities to obtain optimal sensor performance. Alternatively, an electrolyte is formed, sintered, treated with alkaline solution, and then the electrodes are applied.
