  • Viologen has been extensively investigated in the paper because their well-behaved electrochemistry has led to their use in a variety of theses, including the electron acceptor for the electric charge delivery mediation of the devices. It was formed monolayer in QCM by self-assembly method. We could know the adsorbed mass of viologen molecules from the frequency shift. We calculated that the adsorbed mass was about 196 [$ng/cm^2$]. We studied the electron transfer property of viologen by the cyclic voltammetry among the electrochemical process so we changed an anion like 0.1 M $NaClO_4$ and $Na_3PO_4$ electrolyte solution and investigated the interrelationship between scan rate and peak current when scan rates were increased twice.

  • This paper describes the synthesis and water sensing properties of a fluorescent photoinduced electron transfer (PET) sensor (5) with an extended operating sensing range. The 1,8-naphthalimide derivative (5) attached with a piperazine group and a carboxylic group was synthesized and applied as a fluorescent water sensor in water-miscible organic solvents. The fluorescence intensity of the dye 5 increased with increasing water content up to 80% (v/v) and the fluorescence intensities were enhanced 45-, 67- and 122-fold in aqueous EtOH, DMF and DMSO solutions, respectively. In aqueous acetone solution, the enhancement of the fluorescence intensities was somewhat lower (30-fold) but the response range was wider (0-90%, v/v).

  • A prerequisite for the development of graphene-based field effect transistors (FETs) is reliable control of the type and concentration of carriers in graphene. These parameters can be manipulated via the deposition of atoms, molecules, and polymers onto graphene as a result of charge transfer that takes place between the graphene and adsorbates. In this work, we demonstrate a unique and facile methodology for the homogenous and stable p-type doping of graphene by hybridization with ZnO thin films fabricated by MeV electron beam irradiation (MEBI) under ambient conditions. The formation of the ZnO/graphene hybrid nanostructure was attributed to MEBI-stimulated dissociation of zinc acetate dihydrate and a subsequent oxidation process. A ZnO thin film with an ultra-flat surface and uniform thickness was formed on graphene. We found that homogeneous and stable p-type doping was achieved by charge transfer from the graphene to the ZnO film.

  • The electronic and chemical properties of the surface Pt and Ru atoms in the Pt-Ru alloy have been investigated by means of extended Huckel calculations. An electron transfer occurs from Ru to Pt, resulting in an increased electron density on the surface Pt atoms. The transfer is found to be larger toward Pt atoms out of contact with Ru. The calculated electronic perturbation of the water molecule is similar when it is adsorbed either on the Pt site or on the Ru site in the alloy. However, the water adsorption strength is much smaller in the former case, since the lone-pair donations are reduced relative to the latter case. This is essentially due to a larger closed-shell repulsive interaction between $1b_2(H_2O)$ and $d_{yz}$ (Pt).

  • Electrochemical behavior of mer-tris(2-pyridinethiolato)cobalt(Ⅲ) in dimethylformamide was studied on a platinum electrode by means of cyclic voltammetry, chronoamperometry, and chronocoulometry. It was found that the neutral complex molecule was electroactive between the potential region of 1.0 and - 1.2 V vs. a nonaqueous Ag/Ag+ electrode. The Co(Ⅲ) complex was reversibly reduced to Co(Ⅱ) species by one-electron transfer at about - 1.1 V, followed by an irreversible dissociation reaction. However, the oxidation process at around 0.8 V, was responsible for an irreversible two-electron transfer that occurred at a ligand site.

  • The interaction of oxygen molecule with Ni44(111) model surface to which the molecule approaches is studied by calculating the relevant DOS and COOP with the tight-binding EHT method. It is found that the dissociative adsorption of oxygen takes place as a result of electron transfer from the Ni d${\pi}$ orbital to the antibonding 1${\pi}_g$ orbital of the oxygen molecule. This finding is noteworthy to contrast with the case of Ni(100) surface in which the electron transfer takes place from the Ni d${\delta}$ orbital of the nickel surface.

  • We fabricated glucose oxidase (GOx)-modified biosensor for detection of glucose by physical immobilization of GOx after electrochemical polymerization of the conductive mixture monomers of the 3-thiophenecarboxylic acid (TCA) and thiophene (Th) onto ITO electrode in this study. We confirmed the successfully fabrication of GOx-modified biosensor via FT-IR spectroscopy, SEM, contact angle, and cyclic voltammetry. The fabricated biosensor has the detection limit of $0.1{\mu}M$, the linearity of 0.001-27 mM, and sensitivity of $38.75mAM^{-1}cm^{-2}$, respectively. The fabricated biosensor exhibits high interference effects to dopamine, ascorbic acid, and L-cysteine, respectively. From these results, the fabricated GOx-modified biosensor with long linearity and high sensitivity could be used as glucose sensor in human blood sample.

  • Mechanism of electrochemical polymerization of pyrrole (Py) on a Pt electrode in acidic aqueous solutions was studied by means of potentiostatic measurements, cyclic voltammetry and chronopotentiometry. Pyrrole molecule appeared to be initially oxidized via two-electron transfer step to produce oxidized pyrrole ion ($Py^+$), which was coupled with a non-oxidized pyrrole to yield a dimerized species, Py-Py. The Py-Py thus formed was further oxidized again via two-electron transfer step, which was followed by coupling with non-oxidized monomer and by concomitant expulsion of a $H^+$. Then the latter chain extension process was repeated. The chain extension and polypyrrole oxidation reactions occurred competitively.

  • The macroscopic and microscopic redox potentials of tetrahemoprotein, cytochrome c3 from Desulfovibrio vulgaris(Hildenborough) (DvH) were estimated from 1H NMR and differential pulse polarography(DPP). Five sets of NMR resonances were confirmed by a redox titration. They represent cytochrome c3 molecules in five macroscopic redox states. The electron transfer in cytochrome c3 involves four consecutive one-electron steps. The saturation transfer method was used to determine the chemical shifts of eight heme methyl resonances in five different oxidation states. Thirty two microscopic redox potentials were estimated. The results showed the presence of a strong positive interaction between a pair of particular hemes. Comparing the results with those of Desulfovibrio vulgaris Miyazaki F (DvMF), it was observed that the two proteins resemble each other in overall redox pattern, but there is small difference in the relative redox potentials of four hemes.

  • We have investigated core-levels of ZnO thin films at the interface with the graphene on Cu foil using in-situ X-ray Photoelectron Spectroscopy (XPS). Spectral evolution of C 1s, Zn 2p, and O 1s are observed in real time during RF sputtering deposition. We found binding energy (BE) shifts of Zn 2p and 'Zn-O' state of O 1s depending on ZnO film thickness. Core-levels BE shifts of ZnO will be discussed on the basis of electron transfer at the interface and it may have an important role in the electronic transport property of the ZnO/graphene-based electronic device.
