    Abstract: A gas sensor includes: a laminate formed of a plurality of layers including at least one layer of a solid electrolyte; a reference gas chamber formed in the laminate and containing a reference gas; and a reference electrode partially exposed in the reference gas chamber. A portion which is not exposed in the reference gas chamber, of the reference electrode is sandwiched between, among the layers, a first layer and a second layer adjacent to the first layer. When an area of the portion sandwiched between the first layer and the second layer, of the reference electrode is defined as a first area, and an area of a portion exposed in the reference gas chamber, of the reference electrode is defined as a second area, a ratio of the first area to the second area is 0.3 or more.

    Abstract: A sensor element includes: an element body that includes a base part in an elongated plate shape and a measurement-object gas flow part; and a porous protective layer that is formed from one end and covers at least a part in the longitudinal direction of a surface of the element body. The protective layer include: an inner layer; and an outer layer covering the inner layer and a region where the inner layer is not formed. On one principal surface in a region where the inner layer is formed, a first space exists in at least a part between the inner and outer layers, and on the one principal surface in a region where the inner layer is not formed on the one principal surface on which the first space exists, a second space exists in at least a part between the one principal surface and the outer layer.

    Abstract: A gas sensor includes: a laminate including at least one layer made of a solid electrolyte; a measured gas flow path formed in the laminate; and a pump electrode exposed in the measured gas flow path. In a part of a rear end side region, the pump electrode is sandwiched between a first layer and a second layer or is covered with a covering layer formed on the inner surface of the measured gas flow path. The area of a portion exposed in the measured gas flow path, of the pump electrode is 4 mm2 or more. The area of a portion exposed in the measured gas flow path, of the front end side region is larger than the area of a portion exposed in the measured gas flow path, of the rear end side region.

    Abstract: A gas sensor has a sensor element, first element pads, second element pads, first contact-point members, and second contact-point members. The sensor element has first and second surfaces that are positioned on opposite sides in a first direction. The first element pads are disposed on the first surface. The second element pads are disposed on the second surface in a quantity greater than that of the first element pads. The first and second contact-point members are connected to the first and second element pads, respectively. The width (Wt) of at least one of the second contact-point members is less than the widths (Wa-Wd) of the rest of the first and second contact-point members.
