α‐Fe2O3 Film with Highly Photoactivity for Non‐enzymatic Photoelectrochemical Detection of Glucose

A non‐enzyme photoelectrochemical (PEC) glucose sensor based on α‐Fe₂O₃ film is investigated. The α‐Fe₂O₃ film was fabricated via a simple spin coating method. The proposed glucose sensor exhibits good selectivity, a fast response time of <5 s, a linear range of 0.05 to 6.0 mM, sensitivity of 17.23 μA mM^?1 cm^?2 and a detection limit of 0.05 μM. Meanwhile, the excellent performances of the α‐Fe₂O₃ sensor were obtained in reproducibility and the long‐term stability under ambient condition. The linear amperometric response of the sensor covers the glucose levels in physiological and clinical for diabetic patients. Therefore, this non‐enzyme PEC sensor based on α‐Fe₂O₃ film has a great potential application in the development of glucose sensors.
