Gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) have been demonstrated to serve as effective nanomaterial‐based enzyme mimetics (nanozymes) for a number of enzymatic reactions under mild conditions. The intrinsic glucose oxidase and peroxidase activities of single AuNPs and Ag–Au nanohybrids, respectively, were investigated by single NP collision electrochemical measurements. A significantly high turnover number of nanozymes was obtained from individual catalytic events compared with the results from the classical, ensemble‐averaged measurements. The unusual enhancement of catalytic activity of single nanozymes is believed to originate from the high accessible surface area of monodispersed NPs and the high activities of carbon‐supported NPs during single‐particle collision at a carbon ultramicroelectrode. This work introduces a new method for the precise characterization of the intrinsic catalytic activities of nanozymes, giving further insights to the design of high‐efficiency nanomaterial catalysts. 相似文献

The nanoparticle-based electrocatalysts’ performance is directly related to their working conditions. In general, a number of nanoparticles are uncontrollably fixed on a millimetre-sized electrode for electrochemical measurements. However, it is hard to reveal the maximum electrocatalytic activity owing to the aggregation and detachment of nanoparticles on the electrode surface. To solve this problem, here, we take the hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) catalyzed by palladium nanoparticles (Pd NPs) as a model system to track the electrocatalytic activity of single Pd NPs by stochastic collision electrochemistry and ensemble electrochemistry, respectively. Compared with the nanoparticle fixed working condition, Pd NPs in the nanoparticle diffused working condition results in a 2–5 orders magnitude enhancement of electrocatalytic activity for HER at various bias potential. Stochastic collision electrochemistry with high temporal resolution gives further insights into the accurate study of NPs’ electrocatalytic performance, enabling to dramatically enhance electrocatalytic efficiency. 相似文献

Nano‐bismuth has excellent electrochemical properties. However, it is still unclear how the particle size of nano‐bismuth influences its electrochemical thermodynamic properties. In this paper, spherical bismuth nanoparticles with different particle sizes were prepared by solvothermal method; the electrode potentials, the temperature coefficients of the electrode potentials and the thermodynamic functions of reaction for nano‐bismuth electrodes with different particle sizes at different temperatures were determined; and the effects of particle size on the electrode potential, the temperature coefficient and the thermodynamic functions were discussed. The experimental results show that particle size of bismuth nanoparticles has a significant influences on the electrochemical thermodynamic properties. The standard electrode potential of the nano‐bismuth electrode with a diameter of 39.9 nm was 0.009 V lower than that of the ordinary standard electrode (0.308 V); the temperature coefficient of the electrode potential with a diameter of 39.9 nm was nearly double that of 85.9 nm. With the particle sizes decrease, the standard molar Gibbs energy of reaction, the standard molar enthalpy of reaction, the standard molar entropy of reaction, the molar reversible reaction heat and the temperature coefficient increase; and these quantities are linearly related to the reciprocal of the particle diameter. 相似文献

The electrochemical oxidation of single colloidal Ag nanoparticles (NPs) at an electrode surface has previously been studied as an in situ particle-sizing methodology. However, the discovery of multipeak amperometric behavior in 2017 sparked new interest toward understanding the precise physical mechanism of the manner in which a freely diffusing Ag NP interacts with the electrode surface. Random walk simulations, unique electrochemical experiments, and correlated optical/spectroscopic techniques have revealed exciting new results regarding the physical and chemical processes occurring on single NP collision. 相似文献

So far, almost all electrochemistry theories are based on an assumption that the size of an electroactive molecule is negligible. However, this assumption will not be true if the size of an electroactive molecule is comparable to or smaller than the size of an electrode being used to study the electroactive molecule. In this paper, the electrochemical behaviors of ferrocenated gold nanoparticles have been studied using an electrode with a radius that is smaller than the radius of the particle. This allows for the observation of phenomena which cannot be explained by conventional electrochemical theories. Also, stochastic collision current, which cannot be observed on a macro‐ or microelectrode, can be directly observed. 相似文献

By coupling a Pt‐catalyzed fluorogenic reaction with the Pt‐electrocatalyzed hydrogen‐oxidation reaction (HOR), we combine single‐molecule fluorescence microscopy with traditional electrochemical methods to study the real‐time deactivation kinetics of a Pt/C electrocatalyst at single‐particle level during electrocatalytic hydrogen‐oxidation reaction. The decay of the catalytic performance of Pt/C could be mainly attributed to the electrocatalysis‐induced etching or dissolution of Pt nanoparticles. Spontaneous regeneration of activity and incubation period of the Pt electrocatalyst were also observed at single‐particle level. All these new insights are practically useful for the understanding and rational design of highly efficient electrocatalysts for application in fuel cells. 相似文献

An alumina surface coating is demonstrated to improve electrochemical performance of MoO3 nanoparticles as high capacity/high‐volume expansion anodes for Li‐ion batteries. Thin, conformal surface coatings were grown using atomic layer deposition (ALD) that relies on self‐limiting surface reactions. ALD coatings were tested on both individual nanoparticles and prefabricated electrodes containing conductive additive and binder. The coated and non‐coated materials were characterized using transmission electron microscopy, energy‐dispersive X‐ray spectroscopy, electrochemical impedance spectroscopy, and galvanostatic charge/discharge cycling. Importantly, increased stability and capacity retention was only observed when the fully fabricated electrode was coated. The alumina layer both improves the adhesion of the entire electrode, during volume expansion/contraction and protects the nanoparticle surfaces. Coating the entire electrode also allows for an important carbothermal reduction process that occurs during electrode pre‐heat treatment. ALD is thus demonstrated as a novel and necessary method that may be employed to coat the tortuous network of a battery electrode. 相似文献

Direct electrochemical characterization of freely moving nanoparticles (NPs) at the individual particle level is challenging. A method is presented that can achieve this goal based on the collision between a NP and an ultramicroelectrode (UME). By applying a sinusoidal potential to the UME and monitoring the current response in the frequency domain, a sudden change in the phase angle indicates the arrival of a NP at the UME. The response induced by the collision can be isolated and used to explore the properties of the NP. This method, analogous to a high‐speed camera, can obtain a snapshot of the properties of the single NP at the moment of a collision. The proposed method was employed to investigate the properties of both the hard catalytic Pt NP and soft electroactive emulsion droplets, and many new insights were revealed thereafter. The method also has the potential to be applied in many other fields, where the interested signals appear as discrete events. 相似文献

We observed the collision of single Pt nanoparticles (NPs) onto an Au nanowire (NW) electrode by using electrocatalytic amplification. Previously, such observations had typically been performed by using a microscale disk‐type ultramicroelectrode (UME). The use of a NW electrode decreased the background noise current and provided a shielding effect, owing to adsorption of the NPs onto the insulating sheath. Therefore, the transient current signal that was caused by the collision of single NPs could be more clearly distinguished from the background current by using a NW electrode instead of a UME. Furthermore, the use of a NW electrode increased the collisional frequency and the magnitude of the transient current signal. The experimental data were analyzed by using a theoretical model and a random walk simulation model. 相似文献

Column electrodes pretreated through oxidation–reduction cycles were traditionally used in electrochemical surface‐enhanced Raman scattering (SERS). In this study, a disposable screen‐printed carbon electrode was introduced into in situ electrochemical SERS through the electrodeposition of dendritic gold/silver nanoparticles (Au/AgNPs) onto the surface of the carbon working electrode to induce the SERS enhancement effect on the electrode. Scanning electron microscopy images showed that dendritic Au/AgNPs nanostructures could be fabricated under appropriate electrodeposition conditions and could present a minimum SERS factor of 4.25 × 105. Furthermore, the absorbed behavior of 4‐mercaptopyridine was investigated under different potentials. The adsorption configuration was inferred to transform from ‘vertical’ to ‘lying‐flat’. The proposed new electrode combined with a portable Raman spectrometer could be useful in the identifying products or intermediates during electrochemical synthesis or electrochemical catalysis in in situ electrochemical SERS.

The structural stability of cathode materials during electrochemical reactions, in particular, under high‐rate discharge, is pertinent to the design and development of new electrode materials. This study investigates the structural inhomogeneity that develops within a single LiNi0.835Co0.15Al0.015O2 (NCA83) particle during a fast discharging process under different cutoff voltages. Some of the NCA83 particles discharged from a high cutoff voltage (4.8 V) developed surface areas in which the layered structure was recovered, although the interiors retained the degraded spinel structure. These micro‐ and nano‐scale structural inversions from high cutoff voltage seem highly correlated with structural evolutions in the initial charged state, and may ultimately degrade the cycling stability. This study advances understanding of the structural inhomogeneity within primary particles during various electrochemical processes and may facilitate the development of new Ni‐rich cathode materials. 相似文献

Palladium nanoparticles, in combination with multi‐walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs), were used to fabricate a sensitivity‐enhanced electrochemical DNA biosensor. MWCNTs and palladium nanoparticles were dispersed in Nafion, which were used to modify a glassy carbon electrode (GCE). Oligonucleotides with amino groups at the 5′ end were covalently linked onto carboxylic groups of MWCNTs on the electrode. The hybridization events were monitored by differential pulse voltammetry (DPV) measurement using methylene blue (MB) as an indicator. Due to the ability of carbon nanotubes to promote electron‐transfer and the high catalytic activities of palladium nanoparticles for electrochemical reaction of MB, the sensitivity of presented electrochemical DNA biosensors was remarkably improved. The detection limit of the method for target DNA was 1.2×10?13 M. 相似文献

Ag nanoparticles were synthesized on the surface of a glassy carbon electrode modified with p‐tert‐butylcalix[4]arene and p‐tert‐butylcalix[6]arene by the deposition of Ag+ at an open circuit potential followed by the electrochemical reduction of the Ag+.The presence of the calixarene layer on the electrode surface controlled the particle size and prevented agglomeration.Cyclic voltam‐metry showed that the Ag nanoparticles on the modified glassy carbon electrode had good catalytic ability for the reduction of flutamide.The effects of calixarene concentration,potential applied for the reduction of Ag+,number of calixarene layers,and p H value on the electrocatalytic activity of the Ag nanoparticles were investigated.The modified electrode had a linear range in differential pulse voltammetry of 10-1000 μmol/L with a detection limit of 9.33 μmol/L for flutamide at an S/N = 3.The method was applied to the detection of flutamide in practical samples. 相似文献

The current response of the collision of ascorbic acid‐stabilized copper (Cu) single nanoparticles (NPs) on a gold (Au) ultramicroelectrode (UME) surface was observed by using an electrocatalytic amplification method. Here, the glucose oxidation electrocatalyzed by oxidized Cu NPs was used as the indicating reaction. In this system, the NP collision signals were obtained simultaneously by both direct particle electrolysis and electrocatalytic amplification. For example, when the applied potential was high enough for Cu NP oxidation, a blip response combined with a staircase response was observed as a current signal. The blip part in the single Cu NP collision signal indicates the self‐oxidation of a Cu NP, and the staircase part indicates the steady‐state electrocatalytic reaction by oxidized Cu NP. 相似文献

We herein constructed a sensor that converts target DNA hybridization‐induced conformational transformation of the probe DNA to electrochemical response based on host‐guest recognition and nanoparticle label. In the sensor, the hairpin DNA terminal‐labeled with 4‐((4‐(dimethylamino)phenyl)azo)benzoic acid (dabcyl) and thiol group was immobilized on Au electrode surface as the probe DNA by Au‐S bond, and the CdS nanoparticles surface‐modified with β‐cyclodextrins (CdS‐CDs) were employed as electrochemical signal provider and host‐guest recognition element. Initially, the probe DNA immobilized on electrode kept the stem‐loop configuration, which shielded dabcyl from docking with the CdS‐CDs in solution due to the steric effect. After target hybridization, the probe DNA underwent a significant conformational change, which forced dabcyl away from the electrode. As a result, formerly‐shielded dabcyl became accessible to host‐guest recognition between β‐cyclodextrin (β‐CD) and dabcyl, thus the target hybridization event could be sensitively transduced to electrochemical signal provided by CdS‐CDs. This host‐guest recognition‐based electrochemical sensor has been able to detect as low as picomolar DNA target with excellent differentiation ability for even single mismatch. 相似文献

Single‐particle electrochemistry at a nanoelectrode is explored by dark‐field optical microscopy. The analysis of the scattered light allows in situ dynamic monitoring of the electrodeposition of single cobalt nanoparticles down to a radius of 65 nm. Larger sub‐micrometer particles are directly sized optically by super‐localization of the edges and the scattered light contains complementary information concerning the particle redox chemistry. This opto‐electrochemical approach is used to derive mechanistic insights about electrocatalysis that are not accessible from single‐particle electrochemistry. 相似文献

Viruses are by far the most abundant biological entities on our planet, yet existing characterization methods are limited by either their speed or lack of resolution. By applying a laboratory‐built high‐sensitivity flow cytometer (HSFCM) to precisely quantify the extremely weak elastically scattered light from single viral particles, we herein report the label‐free analysis of viruses with a resolution comparable to that of electron microscopy and the throughput of flow cytometry. The detection of single viruses with diameters down to 27 nm is described. T7 and lambda bacteriophages, which differ in size by as little as 4 nm, could be baseline‐resolved. Moreover, subtle structural differences of the same viral particles can be discriminated. Using monodisperse silica nanoparticles as the size reference standards, the virus sizes measured by the HSFCM are in agreement with the equivalent particle diameters derived from their structural dimensions. The HSFCM opens a new avenue for virus characterization. 相似文献

Self‐assembled monolayers (SAMs) of 4‐aminothiophenol (4‐ATP) has been successfully deposited onto nanometer‐sized gold (Au) electrodes. The cyclic voltammograms obtained on a 4‐ATP SAMs modified electrode show peaks and the peak height is proportional to the scan rate, which is similar to that on an electroactive SAMs modified macro electrode. The electrochemical behavior and mechanism of outer‐sphere electron transfer reaction on the 4‐ATP SAMs modified nanometer‐sized electrode has also been studied. The 4‐ATP SAMs modified electrode is further modified with platinum (Pt) nanoparticles. Electrochemical behaviors show that there is electrical communication between Pt nanoparticles and Au metal on the Pt nanoparticles/4‐ATP SAMs/Au electrode. However, scanning electron microscopic image shows that the Pt nanoparticles are not evenly covered the electrode. 相似文献
