  • Publication number: 20230400400
    Abstract: A sensor for detecting conductive particles in a gas flow, comprising a substrate having two front sides, wherein a gas flow direction is from a first front side to a second front side, wherein a resistive electrode structure comprising at least two electrodes is formed on the substrate, the at least two electrodes are electrically separated, wherein in relation to the gas flow direction, a first electrode is arranged in a first section of the sensor such that the first electrode acts as a suction electrode, wherein a sensor detection region is formed in a second section of the sensor, whereby the sensor detection region is formed by portions of the first electrode and a second electrode, wherein the second electrode is formed at least partially in a third section of the sensor.
