Metallicities are determined through the measurement of emission lines in very deep (~7hr exposure) Keck/DEIMOS spectra taken primarily from the HALO7D survey. We measure metallicity with three strong-line calibrations (O3H{beta}, R23, and O3O2) for the overall sample, as well as with the faint [NeIII]{lambda}3869 and [OIII]{lambda}4363 emission lines for 112 and 17 galaxies where robust detections were possible. We construct mass-metallicity relations (MZR) for each calibration method, finding MZRs consistent with other strong-line results at comparable redshift, as well as with z~0 galaxies. We quantify the intrinsic scatter in the MZR as a function of mass, finding it increases with lower stellar mass. We also measure a weak but significant correlation between increased MZR scatter and higher specific star formation rate (SFR). We find a weak influence of SFR in the fundamental metallicity relation as well, with an SFR coefficient of {alpha}=0.21. Finally, we use the flux ratios of the [OII]{lambda}{lambda}3727,3729 doublet to calculate gas electron density in ~1000 galaxies with log(M_*_/M_{sun}_)&lt;10.5 as a function of redshift. We measure low electron densities (n_e_~25cm^-3^) for z&lt;1 galaxies, again consistent with z~0 conditions, but measure higher densities (n_e_~100cm^-3^) at z&gt;1. These results all suggest that there is little evolution in star-forming interstellar medium conditions from z~1 to z=0, confirmed with a more complete sample of low-mass galaxies than has previously been available in this redshift range.</description><source format="bibcode">2023ApJ...959...48P</source><referenceURL>https://cdsarc.cds.unistra.fr/viz-bin/cat/J/ApJ/959/48</referenceURL><type>Catalog</type><contentLevel>Research</contentLevel><relationship><relationshipType>IsServedBy</relationshipType><relatedResource ivo-id="ivo://CDS.VizieR/TAP">TAP VizieR generic service</relatedResource></relationship><relationship><relationshipType>IsServedBy</relationshipType><relatedResource>Conesearch service</relatedResource></relationship><relationship><relationshipType>related-to</relationshipType><relatedResource ivo-id="ivo://CDS.VizieR/J/A+A/448/955">J/A+A/448/955 : Abundances of emission galaxies in SDSS-DR3 (Izotov+, 2006)</relatedResource><relatedResource ivo-id="ivo://CDS.VizieR/J/ApJ/706/599">J/ApJ/706/599 : H{alpha} and UV SFR in the local volume (Lee+, 2009)</relatedResource><relatedResource ivo-id="ivo://CDS.VizieR/J/ApJS/193/13">J/ApJS/193/13 : Spitzer/IRAC sources in the EGS I.
