Abstract: The galvanic cell type SOx(x=2,3) gas sensors consisting of with Ag-β″-alumina as solid electrolyte and porous Pt as working electrode and Ag as reference electrode have been constructed and tested. The electric motion force(EMF) responses were in good agreement with theoretical values for the SOx(x=2,3) partial pressures over a range from 10 ppm to 104 ppm at the temperature 550~750℃. And CO,CO2 and NO2 having the concentrations more than 10 times of SOx didn't disturb the measurement.

Key words: SOx gas sensor, fast ionic conductor, EMF response, Ag-β″-Alumina, solid electrolyte
