Abstract

$LaCoO_3$ thick-film sensors were fabricated on alumina substrate by screen printing method. The sensitivity for gases was investigated by varying the heat treatment temperature of the films. X-Ray Diffractions and SEM photographs were used to examine their structural properties. The sensitivity of $LaCoO_3$ thick-film for CO gas was much better than for $C_4H_{10}$, $NH_3$ and NO gases. The best condition of heat treatment was $800^{\circ}C$ and the optimal operating temperature of $LaCoO_3$ thick-film for the highest sensitivity was $150^{\circ}C$. Sensitivities of the $LaCoO_3$ thick-film at 500ppm and l000ppm for CO gas were 72% and 95%, respectively.
