| Abstract |
| Oxygen sensors are used to improve fuel efficiency and to control
exhaust emissions in automobiles. The underlying principles, operation
and design of two types of established oxygen sensors based on
zirconia and titania are reviewed. Recent advances in sensor concepts
to overcome the limitations of the zirconia and titania sensors are
examined with special emphasis on sensors utilizing oxygen pumping
and thin rum technology for operation at lean air/fuel ratios. |
