Electrochemical and Optical Properties of Fluorine Doped Tin Oxide Modified by ZnO Nanorods and Polydopamine

Various forms of zinc oxide (ZnO) are frequently used in the design optical and electrochemical sensors. However, properties ZnO should be properly adjusted depending on application area. Therefore, this work, we have investigated changing/tuning by depositing a layer polydopamine (PDA) its surface. In order to perform investigation, surface fluorine-doped tin (FTO) was modified with nanorods PDA. were synthesized hydrothermal synthesis technique, after synthesis, they coated exploiting self-polymerization dopamine. The nanostructures using methods. Electrochemical impedance spectroscopy measurements showed that FTO-ZnO FTO-ZnO-PDA could changed variation both—applied electrical potential and/or exposition towards lighting. Interaction between ZnO-PDA bovine serum albumin (BSA) molecules has been (photo)electrochemical photoluminescence A mechanism possible interaction BSA proposed.
