When sensor is heated to a high temperature, e.g.. 400°C, without the presence of oxygen, free electrons flow easily through the grain boundaries of the tin dioxide (SnO2-X) particles. In clear air, oxygen, which traps free electrons by its electron affinity, is adsorbed on to the tin dioxide particle surface forming a potential barrier in the grain boundaries. This potential barrier (eVs in air) restricts the flow of electrons, causing the electric resistance to increase (Fig. 1-1).
