Abstract

A gas sensor capable of measuring a high concentration range is provided. A sensing electrode provided in a sensor element of a mixed-potential gas sensor for measuring the concentration of a predetermined component in a measurement gas is formed of a cermet including a noble metal and an oxygen-ion conductive solid electrolyte. The noble metal includes Pt and Au. A Au abundance ratio, which is an area ratio of a portion covered with Au to a portion at which Pt is exposed in a surface of noble metal particles forming the sensing electrode, is 0.1 or more and less than 0.3.
