Abstract: Provided are a thermistor which can have a satisfactory thermistor film using a metal substrate as well as a high humidity resistance and heat resistance; a method for producing the same; and a thermistor sensor. The thermistor according to the present invention includes a metal substrate 2, an insulating base film 3 formed on the metal substrate, and a thermistor film 4 formed on the insulating base film, wherein the insulating base film is formed so as to fill the irregularities on the surface of the metal substrate where the surface roughness of the insulating base film is lower than that of the metal substrate. In the method for producing this thermistor includes the steps of: applying polysilazane on the metal substrate; drying the polysilazane to form the insulating base film of SiOx containing nitrogen; and depositing the thermistor film on the insulating base film.

Abstract: A temperature sensor comprises: a pair of lead frames; a sensor portion connected to the lead frames; and an insulating holding part holding the lead frames, wherein the sensor portion comprises: an insulating film having the lead frames bonded on an upper surface; a thermistor portion provided to the insulating film; a pair of electrodes formed on the thermistor portion; a pair of pattern electrodes patterned in the upper surface of the insulating film; and a pair of insulating protective tapes bonded to each other to hold the lead frames and the sensor in a vertical direction, wherein both sides of the insulating film are arranged in the vicinity of and inside outer corners on bonding surface sides of the lead frames, and both sides of the protective tapes are bent outward from both sides of the insulating film toward an upper surface side.

Abstract: Provided is a temperature sensor which does not easily cause a crack in a Ti—Al—N-based thermistor material layer when the film is bent, can be directly deposited on a film or the like without firing, and has a high reliability with a high heat resistance. The temperature sensor includes an insulating film 2, a thin film thermistor portion 3 made of a Ti—Al—N-based thermistor material formed on the insulating film, a pair of pattern electrodes 4 formed on the insulating film with a pair of opposed electrode portions 4a being arranged so as to be opposed to each other on the thin film thermistor portion, wherein the pair of opposed electrode portions covers the entire surface of thin film thermistor portion excluding the region between the opposed electrode portions.
