A ceramic rod of GdBa2Cu3O7-δ with Gd2BaCuO5 core was prepared using a dip coater and sintered at 950oC. A hot spot appeared when a certain voltage was applied to the rod. Oxygen sensing characteristics of the rod were investigated. It was found that the response time of the oxygen sensor using the rod with the core was shorter than that without the core, because the length of the oxygen diffusion in GdBa2Cu3O7-δ part in the rod with the core was shorter than that without the core.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
