  • Patent number: 8182665
    Abstract: A sensor element is provided for gas sensors, in particular to determine particles in gas mixtures, the sensor element including at least one electrochemical measuring element exposed to the gas mixture to be determined, and at least one temperature-measuring element integrated into the sensor element. The temperature-measuring element includes a resistor track, which has an electric resistance of less than 180 Ohm at 0° C. The resistor track may thus be produced by thin-foil technology, such as screen printing, for example.

  • Patent number: 8038933
    Abstract: A gas sensor is for determining at least one physical quantity of a gas, e.g., an exhaust gas of an internal combustion engine, the gas sensor having a sensor element that is fixed in a housing of the gas sensor by a seal assembly. The seal assembly includes a sealing element, which has a ceramic and/or a metallic material. After the heat treatment, the sealing element has a maximum decrease in volume of 5 percent, or an increase in volume, based on the volume of the sealing element prior to the heat treatment.

  • Patent number: 7886578
    Abstract: A sensor element for gas sensors for determining the concentration of particulates in gas mixtures, in particular soot sensors having at least one first measuring electrode applied to an electrically insulating substrate and at least one second measuring electrode, a voltage being applicable to the first and second measuring electrodes. The first measuring electrode is at least partly covered by a porous material open to diffusion of the particles to be determined.

  • Patent number: 7872466
    Abstract: A sensor for determining the concentration of particles in gases, in particular of soot particles, has at least one substrate element, and a measuring area between at least one first and one second measuring electrode, the two measuring electrodes being configured so that by applying a voltage between the measuring electrodes, an asymmetric electric field is formed on the measuring area. The sides of the first and second measuring electrodes, facing one another, may not be parallel to one another, for example. Furthermore, at least one measuring electrode may have a structure along the side facing the other measuring electrode or along the finger electrodes.

  • Publication number: 20040011453
    Abstract: A ceramic green body made up of at least two ceramic green sheets that are glued together with a liquid adhesive is described. Further, a method of manufacturing a ceramic green body of this type is described, the surface of a first ceramic green sheet initially being provided at least in sections and at least on one side with the liquid adhesive, and the first ceramic green sheet being subsequently glued to a second ceramic green sheet. Finally, it is proposed to manufacture a ceramic body using this ceramic green body, which may be used, for example, in planar, ceramic exhaust gas sensors, or in ceramic multilayer hybrids as circuit carriers. To this end, after being glued, the ceramic green body is subjected to a heat treatment, during which the polymer matrix of the ceramic green sheets is first at least largely thermally decomposed and/or evaporated, and the body that remains is subsequently sintered.
