Synthesis of TiO2 Nanoparticle and its Application to Graphite Composite Electrode for Hydroxylamine Oxidation

In this work, sol-gel method was used tosynthesize titanium dioxide nanoparticles (TiO2). The TiO2nanoparticles was characterized by Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM), x-ray diffraction (XRD) and BET technique.The TiO2 and coumarin derivative (7-(1,3-dithiolan-2-yl)-9, 10-dihydroxy-6H-benzofuro [3,2-c] chromen-6-on) were incorporated in a graphite composite ele...

Tunneling ultramicroelectrode: nanoelectrodes and nanoparticle collisions.

We describe the fabrication of a nanometer-size electrode based on an insulating TiO2 film and a metal nanoparticle (NP). The TiO2 film is deposited on the conducting Pt surface of an ultramicroelectrode (UME) to block electron transfer (ET) to solution species. The film thickness is, however, thin enough to enable tunneling to Pt NPs; thus, the subsequent contact of metal NP to the TiO2 film r...

Electro-chemical and biological properties of carbon nanotube based multi-electrode arrays.

A novel class of micro-electrodes was fabricated by synthesizing high density carbon nanotube islands on lithographically defined, passivated titanium nitride conductors on a silicon dioxide substrate. Electrochemical characterization in phosphate buffered saline of these new electrodes reveals superb electrochemical properties marked by featureless rectangular cyclic voltammetry curves corresp...

Sensitive Voltammetric Detection of Indomethacin Using TiO2 Nanoparticle Modified Carbon Ionic Liquid Electrode

In this work, a TiO2 nanoparticle modified carbon ionic liquid electrode (CILE) was employed as a sensitive sensor for the investigation of the electrochemical behavior of indomethacin (IND). This nanocomposite sensor has been fabricated by incorporation of TiO2 nanoparticles and the ionic liquid 1-hexylpyridinium hexafluorophosphate (HPFP). The surface of the electrode was studied by scanning ...
