Abstract: An oxygen sensor element that can achieve electric power saving without losing sensor characteristics has a structure in which an outer surface of a ceramic sintered body as a sensing layer made of a composition LnBa2Cu3O7?? (Ln denotes rare earth element) is covered with heat insulating layers. A heat insulating material having a composition Ln2BaCuO5 is used for the heat insulating layers, and that composition Ln2BaCuO5 is added with 20 mol % of LnBa2Cu3O7??. This allows a sintering behavior of the heat insulating layers to come close to a sintering behavior of the sensing layer, and can thus prevent the occurrence of separation of the layers and cracks. The oxygen sensor element has a sandwich structure where the sensing layer is sandwiched between the heat insulating layers, thereby reducing the amount of heat dissipated from the sensing layer, and making it possible to achieve electric power saving.
