Cu(I)(${\beta}$-diketonate) 착화합물로서 $Cu(I)(hfac)PR_3$(P는 phosphine, R은 Me, Et, Bu를 나타낸다) 착물들을 비수용매에서 유리질 탄소전극과 탄소 microelectrode를 사용하여 이들 착물들의 전기화학적 성질을 조사하였다. 아세토니트릴 용액에서 순환 전압-전류법에 의한 $Cu(I)(hfac)PR_3$ 착물들의 환원과정은 최종생성물이 Cu(0)로 가는 1전자 반응으로 진행되었다. 탄소 microelectrode를 이용한 대시간-전류법에 의해서 이들 착물들이 1전자 반응으로 진행됨을 확인하였으며, 확산계수는 $4.5{\sim}6.7{\times} 10^{-6}cm^2$/sec값으로 나타났다.

본 연구에서는 식품의 곰팡이 초기오염 검출에 사용할 수 있는 ergosterol 분석용 바이오센서를 개발하고자 $MWNT-NH_2$ 유리탄소전극을 제작하고, cholesterol oxidase의 고정화를 통해 효소반응기를 제작하여, 바이오센서의 전기 화학적 ergosterol 검출장치를 구성하였다. FT-IR을 통해 MWNT에 기능기가 잘 도입되었음을 확인하였고, cholesterol oxidase 효소 고정화 시 coupling efficiency는 99% 이었다. 제작한 $MWNT-NH_2$ 유리탄소전극의 $H_2O_2$ 용액에 대한 농도별 전류를 분석한 결과 $1{\times}10^{-5}{\sim}8{\times}10^{-5}$ M 농도에서 우수한 선형관계를 나타내었고 검출한계는 $10^{-7}$ M이었다. 본 연구에서 제작한 ergosterol 센서를 이용하여 ergosterol에 대한 반응을 측정한 결과 $1.0{\times}10^{-6}{\sim}1.0{\times}10^{-5}$ M의 농도에서 좋은 선형관계를 나타내어 고감도로 ergosterol을 정량할 수 있는 것으로 확인되어 식품의 곰팡이 오염을 확인하는데 유용하게 사용될 수 있을 것으로 보인다.

Nitrogen-doped short tubular carbons (N-STCs) with big inner diameter have been successfully synthesized via carbonization of polydopamine (PDA) wrapped halloysite nanotubes (HNTs). The obtained N-STCs have average length of $0.3{\mu}m$ with big inner diameter (50 nm), thin wall (2-3 nm) and large surface area ($776m^2g^{-1}$), and show excellent electrochemical properties. As an example in electrochemical applications, N-STCs were used to electrochemically detect hydrogen peroxide ($H_2O_2$) and glucose. The results showed that the N-STCs modified glassy carbon (N-STCs/GC) electrode had much better analytical performance (lower detection limit and wider linear range) compared to the acid-treated carbon nanotubes (AO-CNTs) based GC electrode. The unique structure endows N-STCs the enhanced electrochemical performance and promising applications in electrochemical sensing.

In this research, the enhancement of electron-transfer activity of hemoglobin (Hb) in dodecanoic acid film was investigated for the first time. This type of composite film was made on glassy carbon electrode by casting method. Cyclic voltammetric result of the modified electrode displays a well defined redox peaks which was attributed to the direct electrochemical response of Rb. Our results illustrate that Rb exchange electrons directly with electrode and exhibits the characteristics of peroxidase. When we apply this modified electrode as a biosensor, it gives excellent performances in the electrocatalytic reduction of hydrogen peroxide ($H_{2}O_{2}$). Through the optimal conditions, the proposed biosensor shows the linear range for H2O2 determination was from $1{\times}10^{-5}$ to $1.25{\times}10^{-4}mol/L$ with a detection limit of $1{\times}10^{-7}mol/L$. The biosensor retained more than 90% of the initial response after 14 days.

The redox behavior of a [Ni6(μ3-Se)2(μ4-Se)3(Fe(η 5-C5H4P-Ph2)2)3] (= [Ni-Se-dppf], dppf = 1,1-bis(diphenylphosphino) ferrocene) cluster was studied using platinum (Pt) and glassy carbon electrodes (GCE) in nonaqueous media. The cluster showed electrochemical activity at the potential range between +1.6 and ?1.6 V. In the negative region (0 to ?1.6 V), the cluster exhibited two-step reductions. The first step was one-electron reversible, while the second step was a five-electron quasi-reversible process. On the other hand, in the positive region (0 to +1.6 V), the first step involved one-electron quasi-reversible process. The applicability of the cluster was found towards the electrocatalytic reduction of CO2 and was evaluated by experiments using rotating ring disc electrode (RRDE). RRDE experiments demonstrated that two electrons were involved in the electrocatalytic reduction of CO2 to CO at the Se-Ni-dppf-modified electrode.

Medium carbon steel was aluminized by hot dipping into molten Al or Al-1 at% Si baths. After hot-dipping in these baths, a thin Al-rich topcoat and a thick alloy layer rich in $Al_5Fe_2$ formed on the surface. A small amount of FeAl and $Al_3Fe$ was incorporated in the alloy layer. Silicon from the Al-1 at% Si bath was uniformly distributed throughout the entire coating. The hot dipping increased the microhardness of the steel by about 8 times. Heating at $700-1000^{\circ}C$, however, decreased the microhardness through interdiffusion between the coating and the substrate. The oxidation at $700-1000^{\circ}C$ in air formed a thin protective ${\alpha}-Al_2O_3$ layer, which provided good oxidation resistance. Silicon was oxidized to amorphous silica, exhibiting a glassy oxide surface.

A sensitive and selective electrochemical method was developed for the amperometric determination of ascorbic acid (AA) at a glassy carbon electrode (GCE) modified with single-wall carbon nanotubesdihexadecyl hydrogen phosphate (SWNT-DHP) composite film. The SWNT-DHP composite film modified GCE was characterized with SEM. The SWNT-DHP composite film modified GCE exhibited excellent electrocatalytic behaviors toward the oxidation of AA. Compared with the bare GCE, the oxidation current of AA increased greatly and the oxidation peak potential of AA shifted negatively to about -0.018 V (vs. SCE) at the SWNT-DHP composite film modified GCE. The experimental parameters, which influence the oxidation current of AA, were optimized. Under the optimal conditions, the amperometric measurements were performed at a applied potential of -0.015 V and a linear response of AA was obtained in the range from 4 ${\times}$ $10^{-7}$ to 1 ${\times}$ $10^{-4}$ mol $L^{-1}$ and with a limit of detect (LOD) of 1.5 ${\times}$ $10^{-7}$ mol $L^{-1}$. The interferences study showed that the SWNT-DHP composite film modified GCE exhibited good sensitivity and excellent selectivity in the presence of high concentration uric acid and dopamine. The proposed procedure was successfully applied to detect AA in human urine samples with satisfactory results.

Poly-ethylenedioxypyrrole (PEDOP) coated thiolated multiwall carbon nanotubes palladium nanoparticles (MWCNTs-Pd) modified glassy carbon electrode (GCE) [PEDOP/MWCNTs-Pd/GCE] for the determination of hydroquinone (HQ) and it’s isomer catechol (CA) were synthesized and compared with bare GCE and thiolated multiwall carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs-SH/GCE). The modification could be made by simple processes on a GCE with MWCNTs-Pd covered by PEDOP in a 0.05 M tetrabutylammonium perchlorate (TBAP)/MeCN solution system. A well-defined peak potential evaluation of the oxidation of hydroquinone to quinone at 0.05 V (vs. Ag/AgCl), and electrochemical reduction back to hydroquinone were found by cyclic voltammetry (CV) in phosphate buffered saline (PBS) at pH 7.4. Peak current values increased linearly with increasing hydroquinone contents. The peak separation between the anodic and cathodic peaks at the PEDOP/MWCNTs-Pd/GCE was ${\Delta}Ep$ = 40 mV for HQ and ${\Delta}Ep$ = 70 mV for CA, resulting in a higher electron transfer rate. Moreover, good reproducibility, excellent storage stability, a wide linear range (0.1 ${\mu}M$ - 5 mM for HQ and 0.01 ${\mu}M$ - 6 mM for CA), and low detection limits ($2.9{\times}10^{-8}$ M for HQ and $2.6{\times}10^{-8}$ M for CA; S/N = 3) were determined using differential pulse voltammetry (DPV) and amperometric responses; this makes it a promising candidate as a sensor for determination of HQ and CA.

This paper presents a novel simple method for introducing gold nanoparticles in a poly(4-vinylpyridine) (PVP) polymer layer over a glassy carbon (GC) electrode with the aim of forming a tunable electrochemical interface against a cationic ruthenium complex. Initially, AuCl4 ? ions were spontaneously incorporated into a polymer layer containing positively charged pyridine rings in an acidic media by ion exchange. A negative potential was then applied to electrochemically reduce the incorporated AuCl4 ? ions to gold nanoparticles, which was confirmed by the FE-SEM images. The PVP layer with an appropriate thickness over the electrode blocked electron transfer between the electrode and the solution phase for the redox reactions of the cationic Ru(NH3)6 2+ ions. However, the introduction of gold nanoparticles into the polymer layer recovered the electron transfer. In addition, the electron transfer rate between the two phases could be tuned by controlling the number density of gold nanoparticles.
