“…Conventional electrode materials, including metals, simple oxides, complex oxides, or their composites, mostly exhibit the same response polarity, i.e., negative (positive) response to reducing (oxidizing) gases, which is usually ascribed to mixed potential and conductivity change. 8,12,17,22 When two of these materials are paired up in a planar-type sensor, which features simplicity and miniaturizability, their responses (partly) cancel out, degrading the sensor performance. 17,23 Although connecting sensors in series can amplify the sensor signals, it leads to a complex, bulky, and costly device.…”
