Patent attributes
In manufacturing a multilayered gas sensor element which includes a sensor cell for measuring a specific gas concentration in a measured gas, a main body portion including a plurality of laminated ceramic substrates, and a plate heater portion generating heat in response to supply of electric power, which are integrally laminated in a predetermined order, a multilayered body of green sheets forming the main body portion and the heater portion is sintered into a multilayered gas sensor element, and then at least both side surfaces of the multilayered gas sensor element extending in a longitudinal direction are processed by grinding, so as to remove surface defects.
