The article discusses the use of zirconium dioxide stabilized with yttria as an electrolyte for the formation of a high-temperature ceramic oxygen concentration sensor. The fundamental possibility of using such a material is due to the high electrical conductivity caused by the mobility of oxygen ions in the vacancies of the solid electrolyte. The operating principle of such a sensor as an electrochemical concentration element is discussed. It has been shown that the use of such sensors is relevant for various industries (including chemical, metallurgical, oil and gas, energy and others). Options for forming electrodes of an electrochemical sensor using various materials and deposition methods are considered. A method for forming a platinum coating using a chemical method using isopropyl alcohol and subsequent pyrolysis was tested. It has been experimentally shown that the chemical method is applicable for the formation of electrodes of an electrochemical sensor. The electrical characteristics of the resulting coatings were measured. The optimal composition of the reaction mixture and the required number of layers to create a stable operating electrochemical sensor have been determined. The dependence of the potential of the formed electrochemical sensor from stabilized zirconium oxide on oxygen concentration in a wide temperature range has been studied. It has been shown that when using a scheme of sequential transformations, hydrolysis of platinum tetrachloride - deposition on a substrate - reductive pyrolysis, it is possible to obtain a high-quality conductive coating for the formation of gas sensor electrodes. The optimal composition of the reaction mixture for the formation of platinum electrodes has been selected. The optimal number of layers was determined to ensure the required level of electrical conductivity of the electrodes. It has been shown that an electrochemical element based on zirconium dioxide and platinum electrodes, formed according to the scheme developed in this work, can be used as a high-temperature oxygen sensor.
