We report a novel, simple and cheap generator-collector electrode system, employing platinum leaves, with micron-sized pores and typically 100-300. nm thickness, sandwiched with a porous track etch membrane spacer with typically 30. nm diameter pores. The electrode assembly is se

We report a strategy for the fabrication of a new type of electrochemical nanogap transducer. These nanogap devices are based on signal amplification by redox cycling. Using two steps of electron-beam lithography, vertical gold electrodes are fabricated side by side at a 70 nm di

Electrofluorochromic systems
Molecules and materials exhibiting redox-switchable fluorescence
Electrofluorochromic molecules share the unique property that their fluorescence changes as a function of their oxidation state. This makes them interesting from a fundamental perspective as molecular dyads are designed and synthesized to tune the interplay of electrochemical and

Porous carbon nanohybrids are promising materials as high-performance electrodes for both sensing and energy conversion applications. This is mainly due to their high specific surface area and specific physicochemical properties. Here, new porous nanohybrid materials are develope

In nanofluidic electrochemical sensors based on redox cycling, zeptomole quantities of analyte molecules can be detected as redox-active molecules travel diffusively between two electrodes separated by a nanoscale gap. These sensors are employed to study the properties of multife

Interference or crosstalk of coexisting redox species results in overlapping of electrochemical signals, and it is a major hurdle in sensor development. In nanogap sensors, redox cycling between two independently biased working electrodes results in an amplified electrochemical s

Handling and Sensing of Single Enzyme Molecules
From Fluorescence Detection towards Nanoscale Electrical Measurements
Classical methods to study single enzyme molecules have provided valuable information about the distribution of conformational heterogeneities, reaction mechanisms, and transients in enzymatic reactions when individual molecules instead of an averaging ensemble are studied. Here,

The post-synthetic modification (PSM) of two amino-MOFs with glucose oxidase is reported in this study. The multi-step approach preserved the MOFs' structure and allowed the production of enzyme-functionalized MOFs (MOFs@GOx), which retained the enzymatic activity and showed sele

We propose a new geometry for nanogap electrochemical sensing devices. These devices consist of two closelyspaced side-by-side electrodes which work under redox cycling conditions. Usingfinite element simulations,we investigate the effects of different geometric parameters on the
