Furthermore, the terms "first," "second," "third," and the like, as used herein, are used for descriptive purposes only and are not to be construed as indicating or implying any relative importance.
Referring to fig. 1, 2, 3 and 4, a calibration-free wide-area oxygen sensor comprises an outer protective layer 1, an oxygen pump outer electrode 2, an oxygen pump inner electrode 3, a zirconia matrix 4, a reference electrode 5, an upper insulating layer 6, a heating electrode 7 and a lower insulating layer 8,
the oxygen pump internal electrode 3 is arranged in the zirconia matrix 4, a first diffusion layer 9 and a second diffusion layer 10 are also arranged in the zirconia matrix 4, and the oxygen pump internal electrode 3 is positioned between the first diffusion layer 9 and the second diffusion layer 10;
the wide-range oxygen sensor is a complex of a limiting current type oxygen sensor and a concentration difference type oxygen sensor, in the working process of the wide-range oxygen sensor, certain voltage is applied to a heating electrode, the internal resistance between an internal electrode of an oxygen pump of the sensor and a reference electrode is 300 omega (the temperature of the head of the sensor is about 780 ℃), then voltage is applied between an external electrode of the oxygen pump and the internal electrode of the oxygen pump, limiting current IP reaches a certain limiting current platform, and the oxygen concentration is judged according to the magnitude of the limiting current IP;
the limiting current formula is i=4fd/rt×s/L (Po-Pe)
Wherein D is O 2 S is the cross-sectional area of the effective diffusion path, L is the length of the effective diffusion path, po is the partial pressure of oxygen in the measurement gas before diffusion, pe is the partial pressure of oxygen in the measurement chamber after diffusion, R is the gas constant, F is the Faraday constant, and T is the absolute temperature.
F=96490C/mol and D=1.68cm 2 /sec,,R=82.05atm*cm3/mol*K,T=1073K
Preferably, the first diffusion layer and the second diffusion layer are both arranged in a trapezoid structure.
Preferably, the diffusion resistance k=l/S is adjusted by adjusting the size of the diffusion layer, and the longer the diffusion path is, the larger the diffusion resistance is, and the smaller the current value is, whereas shortening the diffusion path can effectively increase the pump current.
Preferably, the limit current IP is increased by laser polishing or mechanical polishing of the diffusion surface, and finally reaches 1.4±0.02mA.
The novel process is designed, the current of the chip can be controlled to be less than 1.4mA when the limiting current IP is in an air state, then the diffusion surface is polished by laser or machinery, the diffusion area is increased while the diffusion path is shortened, and the purpose of calibration is achieved. The oxygen concentration of each oxygen sensor was controlled to be 20.5.+ -. 0.5% when tested in the air condition.
The correspondence between oxygen concentration and current is shown in table 1:
O 2 0.00 3 6 8.29 20.95
IP(mA) -0.02 0.17 0.36 0.52 1.4
TABLE 1
The smart design of the wide-area oxygen sensor is that a diffusion layer is designed into a trapezoid, the diffusion of the sensor is most difficult in the initial calibration stage, the limit current IP value is minimum at the moment, the limit current IP is set to be smaller than 1.4mA, then the limit current IP is increased by a laser polishing or mechanical polishing diffusion surface method, the limit current IP finally reaches 1.4+/-0.02 mA, and the laser polishing can adopt a controller to test the chip current when a sensor chip works, set a target value and determine the laser polishing amount; the mechanical polishing requires multiple intermittent tests to judge the polishing amount, is relatively complicated and is easy to damage the chip, so the laser polishing method is preferably recommended.
The zirconia layer is prepared by adopting a tape casting method, various electrodes, protective layers, diffusion layers, insulating layers and the like are printed on a zirconia tape casting sheet, each layer is fixed at a corresponding position by adopting a warm water isostatic pressing method, and finally the wide-area oxygen sensor ceramic chip is obtained by high-temperature sintering.
The invention can directly calibrate the ceramic chip of the wide-area oxygen sensor to a target value, and directly simplifies the commonly used five-wire six-plug-in wide-area oxygen sensor (the ceramic resistor printed by a thick film circuit is contained in the plug-in unit of the wide-area oxygen sensor for adjusting current signals to enable all the oxygen sensors to reach the standard range) into the five-wire five-plug-in wide-area oxygen sensor, thereby greatly reducing the cost of the plug-in unit and the matched ceramic resistor.
The current of the ceramic chip of the wide-area oxygen sensor designed by the calibration method is controlled to be smaller than 1.4mA when the limiting current IP is in an air state, then the diffusion surface is polished by laser or mechanically, the diffusion area is increased, the diffusion path is shortened, and finally the limiting current IP reaches 1.4+/-0.02 mA. That is, when the oxygen concentration in the air is 21%, the oxygen sensor shows that the deviation of the oxygen concentration is controlled to 21.+ -. 0.3% at the time of air condition test.
The foregoing embodiments are provided for further explanation of the present invention and are not to be construed as limiting the scope of the present invention, and some insubstantial modifications and variations of the present invention, which are within the scope of the invention, will be suggested to those skilled in the art in light of the foregoing teachings.
