abstract the graphene–chitosan composite film modified glassy carbon electrode was fabricated and used to determine amlodipine besylate. in 0.1 m ph 7.3 phosphate buffer solutions, the redox peak currents of amlodipine besylate increased significantly at graphene–chitosan composite film modified glassy carbon electrode compared with bare electrode and chitosan modified glassy carbon electrode, ...

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 electrode. the resulting modified el...

Iron pyrite has been the material of interest in the solar community due to its optical properties and abundance. However, the progress is marred due to the lack of control on the surface and intrinsic chemistry of pyrite. In this report, we show iron pyrite as an efficient counter electrode (CE) material alternative to the conventional Pt and poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene (PEDOT) CEs in dye-...

Neural electrodes hold tremendous potential for improving understanding of brain function and restoring lost neurological functions. Multi-walled carbon nanotube (MWCNT) and dexamethasone (Dex)-doped poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene) (PEDOT) coatings have shown promise to improve chronic neural electrode performance. Here, we employ electrochemical techniques to characterize the coating in vivo....

Dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSCs) have emerged as a high-efficiency, low-cost alternative to solid-state silicon solar cells. Typically, DSSCs are composed of a mesoporous titania nanocrystal electrode on a transparent conductive oxide (TCO) substrate with ruthenium-based sensitizers on the titania nanocrystals, platinum on the TCO substrate as a counter electrode, and iodine/iodide electrolyt...

A simple equivalent electrical circuit is used to obtain the physical parameters of elements from measured electrochemical impedance spectra. This model consists four with a clear meaning for each elements. Compared complex models multiple constant phase or Warburg impedances, our suitable extracting values important electrode low errors. The feasibility was shown by investigating pure metal po...

Ultra-compressible electrodes with high electrochemical performance, reversible compressibility and extreme durability are in high demand in compression-tolerant energy storage devices. Herein, an ultra-compressible ternary composite was synthesized by successively electrodepositing poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene) (PEDOT) and MnO2 into the superelastic graphene aerogel (SEGA). In SEGA/PEDOT/Mn...

The long-term reliability of neural interfaces and stability of high-quality recordings are still unsolved issues in neuroscience research. High surface area PEDOT-PSS-CNT composites are able to greatly improve the performance of recording and stimulation for traditional intracortical metal microelectrodes by decreasing their impedance and increasing their charge transfer capability. This enhan...

A sodium dodecyl sulfate modified carbon paste electrode (SDS/CPE) was developed in this work based on the surface modification method. The modified electrode was prepared by immersing SDS/CPE in a nickel nitrate solution. This electrode showed a strong accumulation ability toward nickel ions. Then modified electrode was conditioned by potential recycling in a potential range of 0.2–0.8 V (vs. ...
