Abstract
A gas sensor has at least a measuring electrode and a counter electrode on an electrolyte layer. This gas sensor is improved with respect to the complete extent of the electrochemical reaction achieved of the gas molecules, which are to be detected, at the measuring electrode by the manner of determining an electrical charge developed or accumulated thereat. To solve this task, the invention provides that the measuring electrode (14) has component electrodes (14a, 14b) which enclose the electrolyte layer (11, 12) in the manner of a sandwich.
