Hybridization electrochemical

A novel, electrochemically assisted method of obtaining semiconductor quantum dots supported on a surface has been introduced by Penner and his group [123], It comprised a hybrid electrochemical/chemical (E/C) process consisting of electrochemical deposition followed by chemical modification and it was described as a general, rapid, and low-cost solution-phase method for synthesizing supported Q-dots of metal salts.

The hybrid electrochemical/chemical synthesis of epitaxially oriented CdS nanocrystallites-size selectively on graphite surface was described by Anderson etal. [164]. A schematic diagram of such synthesis is presented in Fig. 6. 

Experiments for the detection of a single, three-base mismatch and non-complementary DNA were carried out in both assays. The results demonstrated an efficient discrimination. Figure 53.4 displays these results in sandwich assay, where the difference in current intensities is observed higher for CF-T (Fig. 53.4A), which represents the efficient hybridization electrochemical response on the M-GECE lower responses for CF-MX1 (Fig. 53.4B) and significantly lower for CF-MX3 (Fig. 53.4C) and CF-NC (Fig. 53.4D) [3],...

Electrodeposition [309-311] and chemical bath deposition (CBD) [312, 313] are two other attractive routes for the preparation of nanocrystalline films. Oxides such as ZnO and Ti02 [314-318] and other Group II-VI (12-16) semiconductors (e.g., CdS, CdSe, CdTe) [319, 320] can be prepared in nanocrystalline form via these routes. Hybrid electrochemical chemical synthesis routes have also been devised [321].

Recent developments include the use of hybrid electrochemical capacitors, in which intercalations compounds (Li/ri Oij) were used as the negative material and activated carbon was used as the positive material (Amatucci et al., 2001). Cheng et al. (2006) have recently reported a P-FeOOH-based hybrid capacitor where the iron hydroxide, acting as negative electrode, is assembled with activated carbon positive electrode in ethylene carbonatc/di methyl carbonate with 1.0 M LiPFg electrolyte.

First, it is worth noting that some polythiophene derivatives do not display good n-doping behavior. This is the case for unsubstituted polythiophene, poly(3-methylthiophene) and poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene) (PEDOT). Nonetheless, it will be shown below that they could be useful as positive electrode materials in hybrid electrochemical capacitors. 

Other Electrochemical Approaches CdS has also been prepared from aqueous solutions by other methods, with electrodeposition as an important step. CdS nanotubes have been formed by the self-assembly of CdS nanowires that were prepared by electrode-positing Cd into an AAO (anodic aluminum oxide) template followed by sulfurization [25]. A hybrid electrochemical/chemical (E/C) method was employed to synthesize epitaxially oriented CdS on graphite surfaces [26], which involves the electrodeposition of Cd, the conversion of Cd to Cd(OH)2, and the formation of CdS via the displacement of OH by S . Another E/C method in which H2S was used as the sulfur source and reacted with electrodeposited Cd at 300 °C was reported in the preparation of CdS/S core-shell nanoparticles [27].
