What is an oxygen sensor made of?

0

An oxygen sensor is a solid electrolyte galvanic cell. Electrolyte is zirconium oxide, which is the same material synthetic diamonds are made from. This material is stabilized with a rare element called Yttria. The cell (thimble or flat plate) is then coated with pure platinum, which acts as a conductor/electrode (like battery plates).
