Abstract
The mechanism of gas sensing of metal oxides containing oxygen atoms i n the weakly bonding states has been investigated using La-Sr-Cu-O epi taxial films as a model material. The in situ kinetic measurements of film conductivity to monitor the diffusion of oxygen in and out of fil ms at annealing in the different gas ambient conditions were used. It has been shown that the gas sensing properties of oxide are due to the reversible change of oxygen stoichiometry. The rate-determining steps of oxygen exchange processes in the film have been separated.
