Abstract: Thermoelectric power of Nb2O5 doped β-Bi2O3 solid sclutions has been measured in air, pure O2, 0.1% NO/O2 and found to have high sensitivity to oxygen partial pressure.The possibility of developing a new type oxygen sensor based on the measurement of thermoelectric power has been discussed.

Key words: Bi2O3, Solid solution, Oxygen Sensor
