Growth and characterization of new transparent conductive oxides single crystals beta-Ga2O(3): Sn

Tin oxide doped beta-Ga2O3 single crystals are recognized as transparent conductive oxides (TCOs) materials. They have a larger band gap (4.8 eV) than any other TCOs, thus can be transparent in UV region. This property shows that they have the potential to make the optoelectronic device used in even shorter wavelength than usual TCOs. beta-Ga2O3 single crystals doped with different Sn4+ concentrations were grown by the floating zone technique. Their optical properties and electrical conductivities were systematically studied. It has been found that their conductivities and optical properties were influenced by the Sn4+ concentrations and annealing. (c) 2006 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

ITO导电玻璃和PDMS微芯片毛细管电泳电化学发光检测的研究

微全分析系统是目前很前沿的研究领域，尽管现在还没有真正意义的微全分析系统出现，但它代表了分析科学的发展趋势。本文主要研究了ITO导电玻璃和PDMS微芯片毛细管电泳和电化学发光检测方法。微芯片毛细管电泳对与其联用的检测器有相当高的要求，一些传统的检测方法很难适应于微芯片毛细管电泳。电化学发光检测是一种新兴的检测技术，在化学、生物、医学诊断以及免疫分析中展现出良好的应用前景。如何实现和完善微芯片毛细管电泳与电化学发光检测联用技术是本论文的重点。我们采用聚二甲基硅氧烷（poly（dimethylsiloxone），简称PDMS）和玻璃作为芯片材料，以锢锡氧化物（indium桩n oXide，简称工T0）导电玻璃为工作电极设计了一种集成化的微芯片毛细管电泳电化学发光检测器。其中，芯片的底片由工TO导电玻璃经光刻、化学腐蚀等方法处理后得到。ITO是一种透明的导电材料，作为工作电极集成到芯片的底片上，PDMS层与芯片底片采用可逆键合的方式键合，大大简化了操作并提高了电化学发光信号的采集效率。我们采用脯氨酸作为被测物对检测器进行了表征。在实验过程中，微芯片毛细管电泳及工T0工作电极都表现出良好的稳定性。我们还提出了电化学和电化学发光同时检测技术，应用于微芯片毛细管电泳和常规毛细管电泳。在这种电化学和电化学发光双检测模式中，三联吡陡钉（Ru（bpy）32+既作为电化学发光检测所需的发光试剂与被分析物反应生成激发态的Ru（bpy）32+＊产生电化学发光信号，又在电极表面平行催化电化学反应得到增强的电流响应，提高电化学检测的灵敏度。电化学信号与电化学发光信号同时产生并分别记录，从而实现了电化学和电化学发光同时检测。我们将这种检测技术与芯片或常规毛细管电泳结合，以多巴胺及三种药物分子山蓖若碱、氧氟沙星和利多卡因作为被测物对其进行了表征。这种同时检测方法与其它多检测模式相比更为简单、方便，比单一的电化学或电化学发光检测可以获得更多的被分析物信息，扩大单一检测方式的应用范围。

Metal nanomaterials and carbon nanotubes - synthesis, functionalization and potential applications towards electrochemistry

This review focuses on the synthesis, assembly, surface functionalization, as well as application of inorganic nanostructures. Electrochemical and wet- chemical methods are demonstrated to be effective approaches to make metal nanostructures under control without addition of a reducing agent or protecting agent. Owing to the unique physical and chemical properties of the nano-sized materials, novel applications are introduced using inorganic nanomaterials, such as electrocatalysis, photoelectricity, spectrochemistry, and analytical chemistry.

Preparation of nanoparticles of bipyridineruthenium and silicotungstate and application as electrochemiluminescence sensor

The novel nanoparticles, [Ru(bPY)(3)](2)SiW12O40 center dot 2H(2)O(2) were firstly synthesized and characterized by elemental analysis, IR, and TEM. The nanoparticles were used to fabricate a chemically modified carbon paste electrode (CPE) by dispersing nanoparticles and graphite powder in silicone grease. Thus-prepared CPE shows bifunctional electrocatalytic activities towards the reduction of nitrite and the oxidation of oxalate, and exhibits sensitive electrochemiluminescence (ECL).

Solid-state electrochemiluminescence of tris(2,2 '-bipyridyl) ruthenium

Electrochemiluminescence (ECL) of tris(2,2'-bipyridyl) ruthenium [Ru(bpy)(3)(2+)] has received considerable attention. By immobilizing Ru(bpy)(3)(2+) on an e electrode surface, solid-state ECL provides several advantages over solution-phase ECL, such as reducing consumption of expensive reagent, simplifying experimental design and enhancing the ECL signal.This review presents the state of the art in solid-state ECL of Ru(bpy)(3)(2+).

[Ru(bpy)(3)](2+)-doped silica nanoparticles within layer-by-layer biomolecular coatings and their application as a biocompatible electrochemiluminescent tag material

[Ru(bpy)(3)](2+)-doped silica (RuSi) nanoparticles were synthesized by using a water/oil microemulsion method. Stable electrochemiluminescence (ECL) was obtained when the RuSi nanoparticles were immobilized on a glassy carbon electrode by using tripropylamine (TPA) as a coreactant. Furthermore, the ECL of the RuSi nanoparticles with layer-by-layer biomolecular coatings was investigated. Squential self-assembly of the polyelectrolytes and biomolecules on the RuSi nanoparticles gave nanocomposite suspensions, the ECL of which decreased on increasing the number of bilayers.

Biomolecule-nanoparticle hybrids for electrochemical biosensors

Inorganic nanoparticles (NPs) with attractive electronic, optical, magnetic, thermal and catalytic properties have attracted great interest due to their important applications in physics, chemistry, biology, medicine, materials science and interdisciplinary fields. Biomolecule-NP hybrid systems, which combine recognition and catalytic properties of biomolecules with electronic, optical, magnetic and catalytic properties of NPs, are particularly new materials with synergistic properties originating from the components of the hybrid composites. The biomolecule-NP hybrid system has excellent prospects for interfacing biological recognition events with electronic signal transduction so as to design a new generation of bioelectronic devices with high sensitivity.

Capillary electrophoresis and microchip capillary electrophoresis with electrochemical and electrochemiluminescence detection

Recent advances and key strategies in capillary electrophoresis and microchip CE with electrochemical detection (ECD) and electrochemiluminescence (ECL) detection are reviewed. This article consists of four main parts: CE-ECD; microchip CE-ECD; CE-ECL; and microchip CE-ECL. It is expected that ECD and ECL will become powerful tools for CE microchip systems and will lead to the creation of truly disposable devices.

Electrochemiluminescent detection based on solid-phase extraction at tris(2,2 '-bipyridyl)ruthenium(II)-modified ceramic carbon electrode

A sensitive electrochemiluminescent detection scheme by solid-phase extraction at Ru(bpy)(3)(2+)-modified ceramic carbon electrodes (CCEs) was developed. The as-prepared Ru(bpy)(3)(2+)-modified CCEs show much better long-term stability than other Nafion-based Ru(bpy)(3)(2+)-modified electrodes and enjoy the inherent advantages of CCEs. The log-log calibration plot for dioxopromethazine is linear from 1.0 x 10(-9) to 1.0 x 10(-4) mol L-1 using the new detection scheme. The detection limit is 6.6 x 10(-10) mol L-1 at a signal-to-noise ratio of 3. The new scheme improves the sensitivity by similar to 3 orders of magnitude, which is the most sensitive Ru(bpy)(3)(2+) ECL method. The scheme allows the detection of dioxopromethazine in a urine sample within 3 min. Since Ru(bpy)(3)(2+) ECL is a powerful technique for determination of numerous amine-containing substances, the new detection scheme holds great promise in measurement of free concentrations, investigation of protein-drug interactions and DNA-drug interactions, pharmaceutical analysis, and so on.

VOLTAMMETRY OF CYTOCHROME-C ENTRAPPED IN HYDROGEL MEMBRANE ON GRAPHITE ELECTRODE

The voltammetric behavior of cytochrome c entrapped in hydrogel membranes at paraffin wax-impregnated spectroscopic graphite electrodes (WISGE) was studied in this paper. A pair of well-defined peaks appeared at +70 mV (vs. Ag/AgCl). Beside these two peaks, another pair of peaks emerged at around +225 mV. Further investigations suggested that at least three states of cytochrome c existed in the membranes due to the special structure of the hydrogel. The native conformation of cytochrome c molecules was stabilized by the hydrophilic environment that was formed by the hydroxyl structure of the membranes and facilitated the cytochrome c electron transfer reaction at +70 mV. The molecules directly adsorbed on the surface of the graphite electrode were responsible for the redox peaks at around +225 mV. Whether the adsorption peaks were detectable or not was related to the thickness of membranes and the pre-retaining time before the formation of membranes.

CYCLIC VOLTAMMETRIC AND SPECTROELECTROCHEMICAL STUDIES OF COPPER IN ALKALINE-SOLUTION

The behaviour of the electroplated copper film electrode on tin oxide/glass or glassy carbon surface was studied in potassium hydroxide medium by cyclic voltammetry and in situ transmission spectroelectrochemistry. The results indicate that the electroplated copper film electrode is similar to a copper electrode and cyclic voltammetry with this electrode affords more resolution. The anodic peaks were found to correspond successively to the adsorption of oxygen, the formation of a surface layer of Cu2O, the formation of a surface layer of Cu(OH)2 or CuO and formation of a thick multilayer film of CuO. This is the first time it has been proposed that a surface layer of Cu(OH)2 or CuO is formed from the oxidation of the surface layer of Cu2O. Similarly, a clear interpretation is presented that the cathodic peaks correspond successively to the reduction of CuO to Cu2O, the reductions of Cu2O to Cu and the soluble Cu(II) species to Cu. On the other hand, a shoulder peak related to the chemical transformation of Cu(OH)2 to CuO was first observed.

STUDIES ON DEFECT STRUCTURE AND CATALYTIC PROPERTIES OF SN-MO OXIDES

The present work is devoted to the studies on relationship of structure and activity of Sn-Mo oxides by using XRD, ESR, IR, XPS, TEM and SEM. Eight samples with Mo/(Mo + Sn) rations: 0.0, 0.1, 0.2, 0.4, 0.6, 0.8, 0.9, 1.0 were prepared. On the basis of structure characterization, Sn-Mo oxides can be divided into three groups: Catalysts I with Mo/(Mo + So) less-than-or-equal-to 0.2, Catalysts II with 0.2 < Mo/(Mo + Sn) < 0.8, and catalysts III with Mo/(Mo + Sn) greater-than-or-equal-to 0.8. The solid solution of Mo5+ in tin oxide was formed and the cation vacancy was formed in catalysts I. The solid solution of Sn4+ in molybdenum oxide was formed in catalysts III. The lattice oxygen in catalysts III has higher mobility and reactivity than that in catalysts I. The catalysts III showed higher activity but lower selectivity than that of catalysts I.

Enhanced activity of an In-Fe2O3/H-ZSM-5 catalyst for NO reduction with methane

Selective reduction of NO by CH4 on an In-Fe2O3/H-ZSM-5 catalyst was investigated in the presence of excess oxygen. Compared with In/H-ZSM-5, the In-Fe2O3/H-ZSM-5 catalyst with high Fe2O3 contents showed higher activity in a wide range of reaction temperatures. It was found that the addition of Fe2O3 yielded a promotion effect on CH4 activation. The influence of water vapor on NO conversion was also investigated. The activity of the In/H-ZSM-5 catalyst has been found to be strongly inhibited by water vapor, while the In-Fe2O3/H-ZSM-5 catalyst remained fairly active in the presence of 3.3% steam.
