    摘要: In this invention, an EMF oxygen sensor is subjected to an activation process applying unidirectional voltage between an atmosphere electrode and an exhaust electrode thereof. A control device controlling the oxygen sensor in which a voltage was applied with the atmosphere electrode being positive, additionally applies unidirectional voltage between the electrodes to make the atmosphere electrode positive, for example, when the oxygen sensor was used under an environment in which the air-fuel ratio of the internal combustion engine was rich relative to the theoretical air-fuel ratio. Conversely, A control device controlling the oxygen sensor in which a voltage was applied to make the atmosphere electrode negative, additionally applies unidirectional voltage between the electrodes to make the atmosphere electrode negative, for example, when the oxygen sensor was used under an environment in which the air-fuel ratio was lean relative to the theoretical air-fuel ratio.

    摘要: An oxygen amount (an oxygen storage amount OSA) stored by metal cerium during a storage cycle is obtained based on an output value of an A/F sensor in a time period immediately before an exhaust air-fuel ratio (a downstream side A/F) detected by the A/F sensor shifts to a lean region, and degradation relating to OSC of the three-way catalyst is detected. In the storage cycle, a target air-fuel ratio is set so that an air-fuel ratio of exhaust emission flowing into an S/C changes from rich to lean. Therefore, the downstream side A/F shifts from stoichiometry to the lean region at a time after reaching stoichiometry. When the three-way catalyst degrades, the downstream side A/F shifts to the lean region from stoichiometry at a time. Therefore, the calculated oxygen storage amount OSA becomes extremely smaller as compared with that at a normal time.
