In the present study, a type of graphitic mesoporous carbon (denoted as GMC) is synthesized and its structural properties were characterized by nitrogen physisorption isotherms, transmission electron microscopy and Raman spectroscopy. According to BET and BJH methods, the specific surface area (SBET) and the average pore diameter of GMC are estimated to be 720 m2/g and 3.4 nm, respectively....

Theoretical models of irreversible electro-oxidation of dissolved reactant giving dissolved product on the stationary planar electrode are developed for the conditions of staircase cyclic voltammetry. In the first model it is assumed that the product is adsorbed on the electrode surface and that the adsorbate prevents the transfer of electrons. In the second model it is assumed that the electro...

a new hydroxylamine sensor has been fabricated by immobilizing oxadiazol denvative at the surface ol aglassy carbon electrode (gce) modified by multi-wall carbon nanotube (mivcnt). the adsorbed thin illms oroxadiazol derivative on the mwcnt modified gce show a pair of peaks with surface confined characierisnus.the oxadiazol derivative mwcni (omwcnt) modified gce shows highly catalytic activity ...

Oxidation of formaldehyde (HCHO) is very important, owing to its use in fuel cells. Modification of electrodes surfaces is an excellent way to decrease the overpotentials as well as to increase the current density of the voltammetric response.pt as most efficient metal catalyst can easily be poisoned by product of oxidation and also it has high cost. In this work an efficient and low cost elect...

This article is a report on a novel and high-stability biosensor with minor interference effects of surface modification of working electrode with β-Ga2O3 nanowires (NWs) on choline oxidase biosensor were investigated in an electrochemical detection system. β-Ga2O3 NWs were materialized on the silicon substrate in a catalyst-free growth mechanism. The β-Ga2O<sub...

A sensor, based on multi-wall carbon nanotubes modified glassy carbon electrode (MWCNT/GCE), was developed for determination of fenitrothion. Determining the surface area of MWCNT/GCE showed that this surface is three times more active than that of a glassy carbon electrode. The experimental parameters, such as the amount of MWCNTs, pH of the fenitrothion solution, preconcentration potential an...

This paper proposes a Micro-electro-mechanical (MEMS) capacitive pressure sensor that relies on the movable electrode displaced like a flat plate equal to the maximum center deflection of diaphragm. The diaphragm, movable electrode and mechanical coupling are made of polysilicon, gold and Si3N4, respectively. The fixed electrode is gold and the substrate is Pyrex glass. This proposed method inc...

Glassy carbon (GC) is the most commonly used carbon-based electrode in the analytical laboratory. Because of the high background current and low electrode response, modification of this electrode can be done by various materials and techniques. An ionic liquid (IL), 1-methyl-3-(3-trimethoxysilyl propyl) imidazoliumbis (trifluoromethylsulfonyl) imide, was covalently cross linked onto the GC surf...

A thin film of epinephrine (EP) was electrochemically deposited on the surface of glassy carbon electrode previously activated in NaHCO3 solution. The cyclic voltammograms of the modified electrode indicate that the surface confined EP are strongly dependent on the solution pH, as expected for quinone/hydroquinone functionalities. The EP-modified glassy carbon electrode exhibited...

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. ...
