Popis A novel electrochemical sensor was fabricated by means of solution-processed graphene oxide (GO) ink on fluorine-doped tin oxide (FTO), followed by rapid reduction of the GO surface to reduced graphene oxide (rGO) by cold diffuse atmospheric plasma generated in pure hydrogen gas. The FTO/rGO electrode was then employed in the detection of ascorbic acid, uric acid, dopamine, and acetaminophen molecules with low limits of detection; in these cases, 0.03, 0.06, 0.07, and 0.04 mu M, respectively. While traditional methods for the reduction of GO are time-consuming, in the order of tens of minutes, and involve high-temperature (450 degrees C) sintering in argon, the novelty of this work lies in the rapid manufacture of the sensing material through cold plasma-assisted reduction of a GO surface. Since the temperature of the plasma procedure is below 70 degrees C, with the elapsed time lesser than 10s, and the plasma unit is capable of processing an area of up to 160cm(2), FTO/rGO electrode preparation can be performed at high throughput. This fabrication method may be easily deployed in rapid and low-cost roll-to-roll manufacture, a factor essential for the future commercialization of cost-effective flexible and printed electronics based on a wide range of sensors.
