“…Among the developed SSN, vertically ordered mesoporous silica nanochannel film (VMSF) exhibits high chemical and thermal stability, ordered and vertically aligned nanochannels (nanopores), uniform pore size distribution, high pore density, and ease of modification ( Nasir et al, 2018 ; Jiokeng et al, 2019 ; Ullah et al, 2021 ; Walcarius, 2021 ). The ultrasmall (usually 2–3 nm) and high-density (up to 4∼8 × 10 12 /cm 2 ) nanochannel arrays make it possible to significantly improve the sensor performance as electrode modification materials ( Mi et al, 2020 ; Li et al, 2021a ; Asadpour et al, 2021 ; Li et al, 2021b ; Xiao et al, 2021 ). On the one hand, a large number of silanol groups (Si-OH) with low pKa (∼2) endow the VMSF with a negatively charged surface, which can accelerate the transfer of positively charged molecules to the electrode surface, leading to a significant enrichment effect.…”
