Description
In this work the underpotential deposition of metals such as copper and lead during the electrochemical deposition of gold is investigated to understand the influence that the incorporation of a second metal has on the morphology of gold nanostructures. The incorporation of Pb or Cu, even at concentrations as low as 0.2 %, significantly influence the morphology of the deposit where the formation of elongated structures from a central gold structure is favoured. These nanostructures are characterised by cyclic voltammetry, X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX) and tested for their suitability as a sensing layer for the electrochemical detection of nitrite ions in aqueous solution. A limit of detection of 0.3 µM is achieved with a linear range up to 1 mM which is adequate for the determination of nitrite contained within food products.
Impact and interest:
Citation counts are sourced monthly from Scopus and Web of Science® citation databases.
These databases contain citations from different subsets of available publications and different time periods and thus the citation count from each is usually different. Some works are not in either database and no count is displayed. Scopus includes citations from articles published in 1996 onwards, and Web of Science® generally from 1980 onwards.
Citations counts from the Google Scholar™ indexing service can be viewed at the linked Google Scholar™ search.
