Bird nest-like zinc oxide nanostructures for sensitive electrochemical glucose biosensor

Property Comparison of Transition‐Metal Dichalcogenides (MoS2, MoSe2 and MoTe2) and Their Applicability as Electrochemical Biosensors for Glucose Detection

“…Electrochemical biosensors have been considered as a particularly promising class owing to their exceptional performances include high sensitivity and selectivity, rapid response, low cost, simple instrumentation, easy miniaturization and good quantitative ability. [12][13][14][15] In particular, nanomaterials with unique electronic, catalytic properties, good stability and large specific surface area play key roles. [16,17] TMDs are good candidates of them ascribed to their outstanding physical and chemical properties.…”

Integration of an Electron Transport Layer and a p‐n Heterojunction in a ZnO photoanode for Photoelectrochemical Water Oxidation

“…prepared Y‐doped ZnO nanorod arrays using yttrium nitrate as the Y source, and found the introduction of Y 3+ effectively reduced the transmission resistance and improved the electric conductivity [26] . The type‐II heterojunction semiconductors with narrow bandgap and matching energy level constructed on the surface of ZnO have attracted extensive attention, and are further developed into ternary type‐II heterojunction semiconductors in subsequent research [27–32] . For example, Zhou et al.…”

“…[26] The type-II heterojunction semiconductors with narrow bandgap and matching energy level constructed on the surface of ZnO have attracted extensive attention, and are further developed into ternary type-II heterojunction semiconductors in subsequent research. [27][28][29][30][31][32] For example, Zhou et al constructed a ZnO/TiO 2 heterojunction semiconductor with a bird's nest-like structure, and its photocurrent density reached 2.75 mA/cm 2 at 1.23 V RHE , which was 2.27 times that of pure TiO 2 . [33] This study found that the bird's nest-like three-dimensional structure increased the contact area between the photoelectrode and sunlight, and the Z-type band-matching structure effectively inhibited the recombination of photogenerated holes and electrons at the interface.…”

Dual-strategy biosensing of glucose based on multifunctional CuWO4 nanoparticles

“…6–9 Taking advantage of their high speed, high sensitivity, simple operation, and low cost, electrochemical biosensors have been widely utilized. 10–17 Also, colorimetric analysis has been developed for determination of glucose owing to its simple and easy operation. 18 Many kinds of nanomaterials have been widely utilized to load glucose oxidase (GOx) for fabricating sensitive electrochemical and colorimetric glucose biosensors.…”
