Abstract: <P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a gas sensor in which a gas detection part can be effectively heated by curbing heat radiation from a substrate, and which is low in power consumption so as to be able to use batteries as a power source.  <P>SOLUTION: The gas sensor is provided with a silicon substrate 1 which is a n-type single crystal having a (1 1 0) plane, a heater 2 formed on the silicon substrate 1, a diaphragm 7 formed by removing the silicon substrate under the heater 2 using anisotropic etching, an insulating film 1a formed on the heater 2, a solid electrolyte 3 formed on the insulating film 1a, and a pair of electrodes 4 and 5 formed on the solid electrolyte 3. Since heat radiation from the substrate is curbed, a gas detection part is effectively heated, and the sensor requires less electricity. Therefore, the sensor can utilize batteries as a power source.  <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2004,JPO
