Miniaturized pH Sensors Based on Zinc Oxide Nanotubes/Nanorods
ZnO nanotubes and nanorods grown on gold thin film were used to create pH sensor devices. The developed ZnO nanotube and nanorod pH sensors display good reproducibility, repeatability and long-term stability and exhibit a pH-dependent electrochemical potential difference versus an Ag/AgCl reference electrode over a large dynamic pH range. We found the ZnO nanotubes provide sensitivity as high a...
متن کاملControlled fabrication of Sn/TiO2 nanorods for photoelectrochemical water splitting
In this work, we investigate the controlled fabrication of Sn-doped TiO2 nanorods (Sn/TiO2 NRs) for photoelectrochemical water splitting. Sn is incorporated into the rutile TiO2 nanorods with Sn/Ti molar ratios ranging from 0% to 3% by a simple solvothermal synthesis method. The obtained Sn/TiO2 NRs are single crystalline with a rutile structure. The concentration of Sn in the final nanorods ca...
متن کاملElectrochemically hydrogenated TiO2 nanotubes with improved photoelectrochemical water splitting performance
One-dimensional anodic titanium oxide (ATO) nanotube arrays hold great potential as photoanode for photoelectrochemical (PEC) water splitting. In this work, we report a facile and eco-friendly electrochemical hydrogenation method to modify the electronic and PEC properties of ATO nanotube films. The hydrogenated ATO (ATO-H) electrodes present a significantly improved photocurrent of 0.65 mA/cm2...
متن کاملProtein Biosensors Based on Polymer Nanowires, Carbon Nanotubes and Zinc Oxide Nanorods
The development of biosensors using electrochemical methods is a promising application in the field of biotechnology. High sensitivity sensors for the bio-detection of proteins have been developed using several kinds of nanomaterials. The performance of the sensors depends on the type of nanostructures with which the biomaterials interact. One dimensional (1-D) structures such as nanowires, nan...
متن کاملCrystallinity Engineering of Hematite Nanorods for High‐Efficiency Photoelectrochemical Water Splitting
An effective strategy to overcome the morphology evolution of hematite nanorods under high-temperature activation is presented, via tuning the crystallinity and sintering temperature by substrate modification. It is demonstrated that the as-prepared doping-free hematite nanorods with fine nanostructures obtain a significantly higher photocurrent density of 2.12 mA cm-2 at 1.23 V versus RHE, due...
