Bioinspired electro-permeable glycans on carbon: Fouling control for sensing in complex matrices
(2020)The effect of glycan adlayers on the electrochemical response of glassy carbon electrodes was studied using standard redox probes and complex aqueous matrices. Aryldiazonium cations of aryl-lactoside precursors were used ... -
Electrocatalysis of N-doped Carbons in the Oxygen Reduction Reaction as a function of pH: N-sites and Scaffold Effects
(2019)Metal-free nitrogenated amorphous carbon electrodes were synthesised via dc plasma magnetron sputtering and post-deposition annealing at different temperatures. The electrocatalytic activity of the electrodes towards the ... -
Organic Functionalisation and Characterisation of Single-walled Carbon Nanotubes
(2009)Since carbon nanotubes (CNTs) display unique structures and remarkable physical properties, a variety of applications have emerged in both materials and life sciences. In terms of applications, the functionalisation of ... -
Smart polymer surfaces: mapping chemical landscapes on the nanometre scale
(Royal Society of Chemistry, 2010)We show that Scattering Infrared Near-field Microscopy (SNIM) allows chemical mapping of polymer monolayers that can serve as designed nanostructured surfaces with specific surface chemistry properties on a nm scale. ... -
Untangling cooperative effects of pyridinic and graphitic nitrogen sites at metal-free N-doped carbon electrocatalysts for the oxygen reduction reaction
(2019)Metal-free carbon electrodes with well-defined composition and smooth topography were prepared via sputter deposition followed by thermal treatment with inert and reactive gases. XPS and Raman ...
