Abstract
Compared with a single semiconductor, the heterojunction formed by two different semiconductors usually has higher light utilization and better photoelectric performance. By using stable TiO2 nanotubes as the main subject, CdSe/TiO2NTs heterojunctions were synthesized by a hydrothermal method. XRD, TEM, SEM, PL, UV-vis, and EIS were used to characterize the fabricated CdSe/TiO2NTs. Under visible light irradiation, CdSe/TiO2NTs heterojunctions exhibited a higher absorption intensity and lower degree of photogenerated carrier recombination than TiO2. The electrons and holes were proven to be effectively separated in this heterojunction via theoretical calculation. Under CdSe/TiO2NTs' optimal conditions, the glucose concentrations (10-90 μM) had a linear relationship with the photocurrent value, and the detection limit was 3.1 μM. Moreover, the CdSe/TiO2NTs sensor exhibited good selectivity and stability. Based on the experimental data and theoretical calculations, its PEC sensing mechanism was also illuminated.

Design and Preparation of Polyimide/TiO2@MoS2 Nanofibers by Hydrothermal Synthesis and Their Photocatalytic Performance. Polymers (Basel) 2022; 14:polym14163230. [PMID: 36015487 PMCID: PMC9412554 DOI: 10.3390/polym14163230] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/16/2022] [Revised: 06/30/2022] [Accepted: 07/05/2022] [Indexed: 11/24/2022] Open
Abstract
Organic–inorganic nanocomposite fibers can avoid the agglomeration of single nanoparticles and reduce the cost (nanoparticles assembled on the surface of nanofibers), but also can produce new chemical, electrical, optical, and other properties, with a composite synergistic effect. Aromatic polyimide (PI) is a high-performance polymer with a rigid heterocyclic imide ring and an aromatic benzene ring in its macromolecular framework. Due to its excellent mechanical properties, thermal stability, and easy-to-adjust molecular structure, PI has been widely used in electronics, aerospace, automotive, and other industries related to many applications. Here, we report that TiO2 nanorods were grown on polyimide nanofibers by hydrothermal reaction, and MoS2 nanosheets were grown on TiO2 nanorods the same way. Based on theoretical analysis and experimental findings, the possible growth mechanism was determined in detail. Further experiments showed that MoS2 nanosheets were uniformly coated on the surface of TiO2 nanorods. The TiO2 nanorods have photocatalytic activity in the ultraviolet region, but the bandgap of organic/inorganic layered nanocomposites can redshift to visible light and improve their photocatalytic performance.

Abstract
In this paper, the electrodeposition and hydrothermal methods were used to prepare the Bi2MoO6/BiVO4 photoelectrode, and the intrinsic mechanism of significantly enhanced photoelectrochemical performance of the prepared Bi2MoO6/BiVO4 heterojunction system was studied. Work functions of Bi2MoO6 and BiVO4 were analyzed using a scanning Kelvin probe, and the direction of the heterojunction electric field and the transfer direction of photogenerated carriers were finally determined by the relative positions of the energy bands and the Fermi levels of Bi2MoO6 and BiVO4. A type II Bi2MoO6/BiVO4 heterojunction system was finally confirmed to be formed. Formation of the type II Bi2MoO6/BiVO4 heterojunction system reduces the recombination efficiency of photogenerated electrons and holes and thus improves the photoelectrochemical performance. The photogenerated current density of the Bi2MoO6/BiVO4 photoelectrode reaches 1.47 mA·cm-2, which is 4.9 times that of pure BiVO4 and thousands of times that of Bi2MoO6. The successful application of a scanning Kelvin probe in the verification of the heterojunction type provides theoretical and technical bases for the design and construction of efficient heterojunctions.

MXene-AuNP-Based Electrochemical Aptasensor for Ultra-Sensitive Detection of Chloramphenicol in Honey. Molecules 2022; 27:molecules27061871. [PMID: 35335235 PMCID: PMC8953677 DOI: 10.3390/molecules27061871] [Citation(s) in RCA: 7] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/18/2022] [Revised: 03/06/2022] [Accepted: 03/08/2022] [Indexed: 02/04/2023] Open
Abstract
A simple and label-free electrochemical aptasensor was developed for ultra-sensitive determination of chloramphenicol (CAP) based on a 2D transition of metal carbides (MXene) loaded with gold nanoparticles (AuNPs). The embedded AuNPs not only inhibit the aggregation of MXene sheets, but also improve the quantity of active sites and electronic conductivity. The aptamers (Apts) were able to immobilize on the MXene–AuNP modified electrode surface through Au–S interaction. Upon specifically binding with CAP with high affinity, the CAP–Apt complexes produced low conductivity on the aptasensor surface, leading to a decreased electrochemical signal. The resulting current change was quantitatively correlated with CAP concentration. Under optimized experimental conditions, the constructed aptasensor exhibited a good linear relationship within a wide range of 0.0001–10 nM and with a low detection limit of 0.03 pM for CAP. Moreover, the developed aptasensor has been applied to the determination of CAP concentration in honey samples with satisfactory results.
