ABSTRACT An electrode for measuring the activity of ionic species. The electrode comprises a material which is chemically sensitive to at least one ionic species. The material comprises an insulating component and a conductive component of lower resistivity than the insulating component. The insulating component has a density of proton binding sites sufficiently large to be sensitive to the ionic species. The conductive component comprises particles, the size of which are sufficiently small to modify the bulk conductive properties such that the susceptibility of the particles to redox interference in the operation of the electrode is decreased, while maintaining sufficient conductivity to operate in Faradaic electrode configurations. Illustratively, the insulating component is tantalum oxide, zirconium oxide or aluminum oxide and the conductive component is iridium, platinum, ruthenium, palladium, rhodium or osmium oxide.
