Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
1 . A method of making an electrode comprising: 
 sputtering a conductive layer on an inert substrate; and    applying an insoluble reactive layer over the conductive layer.    
   
   
       2 . The method of  claim 1 , wherein applying an insoluble reactive layer comprises: 
 sputtering the insoluble reactive layer over the conductive layer.    
   
   
       3 . The method of  claim 2 , wherein sputtering the insoluble reactive layer comprises: 
 sputtering at least two materials concurrently to form the reactive layer.    
   
   
       4 . The method of  claim 3 , wherein sputtering at least two materials concurrently comprises: 
 using a first target of a first material and a second target of a second material.    
   
   
       5 . The method of  claim 3 , wherein sputtering at least two materials concurrently comprises: 
 using a first target comprising a first material and a second material.    
   
   
       6 . The method of  claim 1 , wherein applying an insoluble reactive layer comprises: 
 applying a colloid over the conductive layer.    
   
   
       7 . The method of  claim 1 , wherein: 
 sputtering a conductive layer comprises sputtering silver; and    applying an insoluble reactive layer over the conductive layer comprises applying AgCl.    
   
   
       8 . The method of  claim 7 , wherein applying an insoluble reactive layer over the conductive layer comprises applying Ag and AgCl.  
   
   
       9 . The method of  claim 7 , wherein applying an insoluble reactive layer over the conductive layer comprises applying colloidal AgCl.  
   
   
       10 . A method of making an electrode comprising: 
 sputtering a conductive layer on an inert substrate; and    sputtering a reactive layer over the conductive layer.    
   
   
       11 . The method of  claim 10 , wherein sputtering a reactive layer comprises: 
 concurrently sputtering a first material and a second material.    
   
   
       12 . The method of  claim 11 , wherein concurrently sputtering a first material and a second material comprises: 
 using a first target of a first material and a second target of a second material.    
   
   
       13 . The method of  claim 11 , wherein concurrently sputtering a first material and a second material comprises: 
 using a first target comprising a first material and a second material.    
   
   
       14 . A sensor comprising an electrode, the electrode comprising a conductive layer and an insoluble reactive layer over the conductive layer.  
   
   
       15 . The sensor of  claim 14  further comprising an inert substrate, the conductive layer on the insert substrate.  
   
   
       16 . The sensor of  claim 15 , further comprising a working electrode and a counter electrode, and wherein the electrode is the counter electrode.  
   
   
       17 . The sensor of  claim 14 , wherein the reactive layer comprises AgCl.  
   
   
       18 . The sensor of  claim 17 , wherein the reactive layer comprises colloidal AgCl.  
   
   
       19 . The sensor of  claim 17 , wherein the reactive layer comprises sputtered AgCl.  
   
   
       20 . The sensor of  claim 17 , wherein the reactive layer comprises Ag and AgCl.
