چکیده
We demonstrate a method for constructing bifunctional nanostructures, which conjugate biochemical and electrocatalytic activities, on glassy carbon surfaces by decorating the carbon surfaces with both biologically active glucose oxidases and size-monodisperse Pt nanoparticles (less than 2 nm in diameter) utilizing only a single dendrimer layer.

Effect of particle size on the kinetics of the electrocatalytic oxygen reduction reaction catalyzed by Pt dendrimer-encapsulated nanoparticles.
Platinum dendrimer-encapsulated nanoparticles (DENs) containing an average of 55, 100, 147, 200, and 240 atoms were prepared within sixth-generation, hydroxyl-terminated, poly(amidoamine) dendrimers. These DENs were immobilized on glassy carbon electrodes, and the effect of particle size on the kinetics of the oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) was quantitatively evaluated using rotating disk volt...

Platinum dendrimer-encapsulated nanoparticles (DENs) were prepared within fourth-generation, hydroxyl-terminated, poly(amidoamine) dendrimers and immobilized on glassy carbon electrodes using an electrochemical coupling strategy. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, electron microscopy, and electrochemical experiments confirmed that the Pt DENs were about 1.4 nm in diameter and that they remained ...
متن کاملElectrochemical synthesis and electrocatalytic properties of Au@Pt dendrimer-encapsulated nanoparticles.
Dendrimer-encapsulated Au nanoparticles comprised of an average of 147 atoms were synthesized and immobilized on a glassy carbon electrode. A one-atom-thick shell of Cu was added to the Au core by electrochemical underpotential deposition, and then this shell was replaced with Pt by galvanic exchange. The results indicate that this synthetic approach leads to well-defined core/shell nanoparticl...
