Functionalization of indium tin oxide electrode with both of dendrimer-encapsulated Pt nanoparticles and chemically converted graphenes for enhanced electrochemiluminescence of luminol/H2O2
Here, we report highly enhanced electrochemiluminescence (ECL) of luminol in the presence of H 2 O 2 on indium tin oxides (ITOs) modified with both of dendrimer-encapsulated Pt nanoparticles (Pt DENs) and chemically converted graphenes (CCGs). The ITO electrodes were electrochemically modified with...

on indium tin oxides (ITOs) modified with both of dendrimer-encapsulated Pt nanoparticles (Pt DENs) and chemically converted graphenes (CCGs). The ITO electrodes were electrochemically modified with size-monodisperse Pt DENs via electrooxidative grafting of the terminal amines of the dendrimers encapsulating Pt nanoparticles. The Pt DEN-modified ITOs were then decorated with CCG sheets via electrostatic attachments of graphene oxides (GOs) and subsequent chemical reduction of the GOs to the CCGs. The resulting CCG-Pt DEN/ITO electrodes exhibited highly catalyzed electrochemical oxidation of luminol/H
