Electrochemistry has superior properties respect to the other measurement systems because of the rapid, simple and sensitive characteristics. For all these reasons, electrochemical sensors are playing a key role in many scientific sectors. Planar electrochemical sensors present many advantages respect to the three-dimensional devices, but this technology requires the use of specialty chemicals to meet the new functional requirements of planarization and miniaturization. In this paper, some production techniques and procedures to obtain planar electrochemical sensors are reported, together with their applications.
