Abstract
A method for producing a soot sensor is provided. The method includes steps of applying a contiguous metallic layer on an electrically insulating substrate and structuring the metal coating with a laser beam by vaporizing areas of the metallic layer. At least two interlaced contiguous electrically conductive structures are produced. The electrically conductive structures are spatially separated from one another with the laser beam and are electrically insulated from one another such that the conductive structures substantially extend next to one another and close to one another in an area relative to a total length thereof. A soot sensor produced using such a method is also provided. The soot sensor has an electrically insulating substrate and at least two contiguous electrically conductive structures which are spatially separated from one another and are interlaced as structured metallic layers. An intermediate space between the conductive structures is burned free with a laser.
