Abstract

The effects of additives on gas sensing properties of $In_2O_3$ ethanol gas sensor were investigated. Gas sensors were fabricated by the painting method. The $In_2O_3-La_2O_3-Pt$ sensor heat treated $400^{\circ}C$ displayed fast response and recovery behavior with a maximum sensitivity to ethanol gas in air at an operating temperature of $300^{\circ}C$.
