In this study, the potentiometric arrayed glucose biosensors, which were based on zinc oxide (ZnO) or aluminum-doped zinc oxide (AZO) sensing membranes, were fabricated by using screen-printing technology and a sputtering system, and graphene oxide (GO) and Nafion-glucose oxidase (GOx) were used to modify sensing membranes by using the drop-coating method. Next, the material properties were characterized by using a Raman spectrometer, a field-emission scanning electron microscope (FE-SEM), and a scanning probe microscope (SPM). The sensing characteristics of the glucose biosensors were measured by using the voltage–time (V-T) measurement system. Finally, electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) was conducted to analyze their charge transfer abilities. The results indicated that the average sensitivity of the glucose biosensor based on Nafion-GOx/GO/AZO was apparently higher than that of the glucose biosensor based on Nafion-GOx/GO/ZnO. In addition, the glucose biosensor based on Nafion-GOx/GO/AZO exhibited an excellent average sensitivity of 15.44 mV/mM and linearity of 0.997 over a narrow range of glucose concentration range, a response time of 26 s, a limit of detection (LOD) of 1.89 mM, and good reproducibility. In terms of the reversibility and stability, the hysteresis voltages (VH) were 3.96 mV and 2.42 mV. Additionally, the glucose biosensor also showed good anti-inference ability and reproducibility. According to these results, it is demonstrated that AZO is a promising material, which could be used to develop a reliable, simple, and low-cost potentiometric glucose biosensor.

AbstractNanostructures are a viable candidate for the construction of simple blood sugar monitoring devices. Electrochemical oxidation based on the immobilization of glucose oxidase (GOx) on carbon nanostructures has paved the way for a modern approach to the determination of glucose levels in blood. Carbon nanotubes (CNTs) exhibit excellent electrical properties, resulting in increased interest in glucose biosensors based on CNTs. Its large surface area and optimum aspect ratio increase the total amount of immobilized biomaterials onto its surface. In this contribution, recent advances in the development of reliable methods to improve the electron-transfer mechanism of GOx in CNT-based glucose biosensors are highlighted. Moreover, mass production and growth mechanism of purified CNTs by chemical vapor deposition were discussed by emphasizing its growth-control aspects.

The manufacture and characterization of glucose biosensor based on layer by layer self assembled graphene are presented. Due to self assembly technique and flexible polymer substrate, the cost of the biosensor is very competitive. The resolution of the graphene based biosensor reaches down to 10 pM, which shows greater advantages over CNT based biosensor under the same conditions. The response time of graphene biosensor is less than 3 s, which is much faster than other materials and methods. This work demonstrates that graphene and polymers are very promising materials for the applications of low-cost glucose biosensors.

2D molybdenum disulfide (MoS2)-based thin film transistors are widely used in biosensing, and many efforts have been made to improve the detection limit and linear range. However, in addition to the complexity of device technology and biological modification, the compatibility of the physical device with biological solutions and device reusability have rarely been considered. Herein, we designed and synthesized an array of MoS2 by employing a simple-patterned chemical vapor deposition growth method and meanwhile exploited a one-step biomodification in a sensing pad based on DNA tetrahedron probes to form a bio-separated sensing part. This solves the signal interference, solution erosion, and instability of semiconductor-based biosensors after contacting biological solutions, and also allows physical devices to be reused. Furthermore, the gate-free detection structure that we first proposed for DNA (BRCA1) detection demonstrates ultrasensitive detection over a broad range of 1 fM to 1 μM with a good linear response of R2 = 0.98. Our findings provide a practical solution for high-performance, low-cost, biocompatible, reusable, and bio-separated biosensor platforms.

Weak absorption remains a vital factor that limits the application of two-dimensional (2D) materials due to the atomic thickness of those materials. In this work, a direct chemical vapor deposition (CVD) process was applied to achieve 2D MoS2 encapsulation onto the silicon nanopillar array substrate (NPAS). Single-layer 2D MoS2 monocrystal sheets were obtained, and the percentage of the encapsulated surface of NPAS was up to 80%. The reflection and transmittance of incident light of our 2D MoS2-encapsulated silicon substrate within visible to shortwave infrared were significantly reduced compared with the counterpart planar silicon substrate, leading to effective light trapping in NPAS. The proposed method provides a method of conformal deposition upon NPAS that combines the advantages of both 2D MoS2 and its substrate. Furthermore, the method is feasible and low-cost, providing a promising process for high-performance optoelectronic device development.

A biosensing membrane base on ferulic acid and glucose oxidase is synthesized onto a carbon paste electrode by electropolymerization via cyclic voltammetry in aqueous media at neutral pH at a single step. The developed biosensors exhibit a linear response from 0.082 to 34 mM glucose concentration, with a coefficient of determination R2 equal to 0.997. The biosensors display a sensitivity of 1.1 μAmM−1 cm−2, a detection limit of 0.025 mM, and 0.082 mM as glucose quantification limit. The studies reveal stable, repeatable, and reproducible biosensors response. The results indicate that the novel poly-ferulic acid membrane synthesized by electropolymerization is a promising method for glucose oxidase immobilization towards the development of glucose biosensors. The developed glucose biosensors exhibit a broader linear glucose response than other polymer-based glucose biosensors.

Carbon membranes have high adsorption capacitiy with respect to its incredible properties such as unique structural, electronic, optoelectronic, semiconductor, mechanical, chemical and physical. Carbon nanotube (CNT) membranes because of its high permeance have been recently developed.Great attention has been currently paid to the field of fabrication methods capable of producing uniform, well-aligned and monodispersed CNT array. Current research concerns with fabrication of vertically aligned CNT membrane in order to remove heavy metal ion presents in waste water. For this purpose, CNTs are vertically grown up through the holes of anodic aluminium oxide (AAO); as a template, by chemical vapor deposition (CVD) of acetylene gas.In this work a few heavy metals such as Pb (II), Cu (II) and Cd (II) has been examined for checking the perfomance of membrane in aqueous solution. The morphological properties of the aligned CNT membrane were investigated with scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The method has simple technology, low cost, and easy reproduction.

ABSTRACTSrS:Ce is an important material for full color electroluminescent (EL) flat panel displays. Using a combination of SrS:Ce/ZnS:Mn and appropriate color filters high quality full color displays have been demonstrated [1]. Major issues for commercially viable process integration of SrS:Ce are the combination of high luminance, high growth rate, and process temperatures below 600°C for compatibility with low cost glass substrates. This work describes the process development and optimization of metal-organic chemical vapor deposition (MOCVD) of SrS:Ce. MOCVD is a promising candidate for deposition of SrS:Ce because it can provide the required growth rates and allows control of crystal structure and stoichiometry. Growth of SrS:Ce was performed in the temperature range from 400°C to 530°C using Sr(tmhd)2, Ce(tmhd)4, and H2S as precursors. The structure of the SrS:Ce was found to be strongly dependent on the H2S flow. A brightness of 15 fL and an efficiency of 0.22 lm/W has been achieved (40 V above threshold voltage, 60 Hz AC). Film analysis included Rutherford backscattering (RBS), X-ray diffraction (XRD), atomic force microscopy (AFM), and EL measurements. Results on the correlation between process parameters, film structure, grain size and EL performance will be presented.

ABSTRACTThe innovative Combustion Chemical Vapor Deposition (CCVD) process is a non-vacuum technique that is being investigated to enable next generation products in several application areas including high-temperature superconductors (HTS). In combination with the Rolling Assisted Biaxially Textured Substrate (RABiTS) technology, the CCVD process has significant promise to provide low-cost, high-quality lengths of YBCO coated conductor. The CCVD technology has been used to deposit both buffer layer coatings as well as YBCO superconducting layers. A buffer layer architecture of strontium titanate and ceria have been deposited by CCVD on textured nickel substrates and optimized to appropriate thicknesses and microstructures to provide templates for growing PLD YBCO with high critical current density values. The CCVD buffer layers have been scaled to meter plus lengths with good epitaxial uniformity along the length. A short sample cut from one of the lengths enabled high critical current density PLD YBCO. Films of CCVD YBCO superconductors have been grown on single crystal substrates with critical current densities over 1 MA/cm2. Work is currently in progress to combine both the buffer layer and superconductor technologies to produce high-quality coupons of HTS tape made entirely by the non-vacuum CCVD process.

Miniature, low-cost sensors are in demand for a variety of applications in industry, medicine, and environmental sciences. As a first step in developing such a sensor, we have etched a grating into a GaAs rib waveguide to serve as a wavelength-dispersive element. The device was fabricated with the techniques of metal-organic chemical vapor deposition, electron-beam lithography, optical lithography, and reactive ion-beam etching. While full integration is the eventual goal of this work, for the present, a functional spectrometer was constructed with the addition of a discrete source, sample cell, lenses, and detector. The waveguide spectrometer has a spectral resolution of 7.5 nm and a spectral dispersion of 0.11°/ nm. As presently configured, it functions in the spectral range of 1500 to 1600 nm. A demonstration of the analytical capability of the waveguide spectrometer is presented. The problem posed is the determination of diethanol amine in an ethanol solution (about 10 to 100 g/L). This procedure involves the detection of the first overtone of the NH stretch at 1545 nm in a moderately absorbing solvent background. The standard error of prediction for the determination was 5.4 g/L.
