ABSTRACT:
A method of sputtering a palladium or palladium-platinum exhaust gas electrode onto a vitrified zirconia thimble for an electrochemical-type exhaust gas oxygen sensor. Porous high surface area films are deposited that have more consistent properties. A sputtering target is spaced about 3.0-4.5 cm from the thimble and more than 6 cm from the sputtering anode. A pressure of about 10-20 millitorr is used during sputtering at a DC power of about 13-22 watts/cm.sup.2 of target area.
