ABSTRACT:
Oxygen sensor element (ZrO.sub.2 solid electrolyte etc) for detecting oxygen concentration in an exhaust gas has a protective layer which is made of a heat-resistant metal oxide and which carries a component of a IIa subgroup element (Ca, Mg etc) on the side exposed to the exhaust gas of the sensor element, at least a part of the protective layer being present as a nonstoichiometric compound (Ti oxide etc) with respect to the heat-resistant metal oxide. Si-poisoning is prevented. Heater for heating the sensor element is provided for preventing Si-poisoning at low temperatures.
