An aluminium battery using an organic redox polymer as a positive electrode material delivers high reversible specific capacities at fast C-rates.

We report a strategy for fabrication of sub-micron, multifunctional carbon electrodes and application of these electrodes as probes for scanning electrochemical microscopy (SECM) and scanning ion conductance microscopy (SICM). The fabrication process utilized chemical vapor deposition of parylene, followed by thermal pyrolysis to form conductive carbon and then further deposition of parylene to...

Photoinitiated polymerisation is efficiently and rapidly carried out to immobilise ultrathin electrochemiluminescent redox hydrogel films. Microscale patterns are fabricated on an electrode surface by a simple photolithographic procedure and revealed by ECL imaging.

We describe a general strategy for electronic aptamer-based biosensor that is based on target-induced strand release (TISR) of a redox-modified aptamer from the aptamer-capture DNA duplex bound on an electrode.

We show here that hybridization-linked changes in the dynamics of a redox-modified, electrode-bound linear (as opposed to stem-loop) probe DNA produce large changes in Faradaic current, allowing for the ready detection of target oligonucleotides.

This work explores the synergistic combination of ionic self-assembly and recognition-directed assembly for the modification of electrode surfaces with redox glycoenzymes on the basis of electroactive glycopolyelectrolyte-surfactant complexes.

Here we report on the design and study of a biofuel cell consisting of a glucose oxidase-based anode (Aspergillus niger) and a laccasebased cathode (Trametes versicolor) using osmium-based redox polymers as mediators of the biocatalysts’ electron transfer at graphite electrode surfaces. The graphite electrodes of the device are modified with the deposition and immobilization of the appropriate ...

In this article, we report a newly devised composite electrode for electrochemical capacitors, by depositing manganese dioxide (MnO2) on the surface of carbon nanotubes via a spontaneous redox reaction. X-ray diffraction and transmission electron microscopic studies demonstrated a homogeneous coating of layered MnO2 on the surface of the carbon nanotubes. The MWNT@MnO2 composite electrode displ...

Electrochemical or photo-electrochemical reactions in both electrospray ionization and laser desorption ionization are discussed stressing the role of the electrode reaction in influencing the ionization process. In particular, upon application of a high voltage during electrospray ionization, the emitter includes a working electrode, where redox reactions are observed, such as electro-generati...

So-called bottom-up fabrication methods aim to assemble and integrate molecular components exhibiting specific functions into electronic devices that are orders of magnitude smaller than can be fabricated by lithographic techniques. Fundamental to the success of the bottom-up approach is the ability to control electron transport across molecular components. Organic molecules containing redox ce...
