Abstract

Electrochemical sensors for Volatile Organic Compound (VOCs) based on commercial YSZ layers were fabricated using Pt and SmFeO3 perovskite oxide as electrodes, both exposed to the same gas environment. Pt was sputtered on YSZ layers while SmFeO3 p-type semiconducting oxide was deposited by electrophoretic deposition (EPD). Nanometric SmFeO3 oxide powders were selected because they have already shown good sensing performance in semiconducting sensors for oxidizing gases such as NO2 and ozone, and reducing gases, such as VOCs, Potentiometric measurements were performed under exposure to different concentrations of VOCs such as: methyl ethyl ketone (MEK), ethanol (EtOH) and acetic acid (AA). The best gas sensing response was obtained at 400°C.
