Oxygen electrochemical detection techniques. (A) Schematic diagram of the implantable oxygen sensor (B) low temperature co-fired ceramic sensor for measuring oxygen in a flowing environment [46]. (a) Conceptual design of the microchannels with the reaction mechanism happening at the electrodes. (b) The assembly and fabrication process of the sensor with an assembled version in (c) [47]. (C) A skin like oxygen sensor based on gold electrodes patterned in a horseshoe structure to enhance the mechanical properties and integrated onto a medical bandage [48]. (D) Thread-based electrochemical oxygen sensor for area and local measurements, showing the flexibility of the sensor wrapped around human finger [49].
