Abstract:Lead
ions (Pb2+) are poisonous heavy metal pollutants
that pose a constant threat to human health. To address this issue
and develop a rapid and selective detection method for lead ions in
various bodies of water, a highly sensitive sensor based on a glass
carbon electrode modified with solid solution quantum dots (SSQDs)
was constructed. The use of Cu-doped CeO2 SSQDs with extremely
reduced size enhances the electroactive area due to their abundant
edge sites and significant surface charge imbalance. The sens… Show more
