  • Publication number: 20210134535
    Abstract: A three-dimensional bicontinuous nanoporous platinum-based (3D-BC-NP-Pt(Au)) electrode is prepared by co-electrodepositing Pt and Ag to form a Pt—Ag alloy thin film on a gold substrate, annealing the Pt—Ag alloy thin film deposited on the gold substrate to produce a Pt—Ag—Au alloy, and dealloying the Pt—Ag—Au alloy by dissolving Ag to produce the nanoporous three-dimensional bicontinuous Pt—Au electrode with or without: hierarchical porosity, cylindrical nanopores, and engineered nano-cracks. Electrodes comprising Pt—Au alloys are also provided.

  • Patent number: 10969379
    Abstract: A bioelectrochemical sensor utilizing a nanoporous gold electrode. The bioelectrochemical sensor is suitable for measuring redox in biologic media while having increased resistance to biofouling as compared to conventional electrodes such as planar gold electrodes, due to greater exposed surface area of the three-dimensional ligature structure defining the nanopores. The nanopores have a pore size of 5-100 nm, preferably with an average pore size of less than 50 nm, and more preferably with an average pore size of less than 20 nm.
    Type: Grant
