Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of gated graphene field-effect transistor sensors, and more specifically to a method for fabricating a bimetallic MOF material functionalized transistor sensor for BPA detection. Background Technology
[0002] Bisphenol A (BPA) is a synthetic organic pollutant widely used in the synthesis of polycarbonates, epoxy resins, medical devices, food packaging materials, and thermal paper. Due to its widespread presence, BPA can enter the human body primarily through oral ingestion and skin contact. Because of its diverse sources, BPA readily accumulates in the human body. BPA not only causes endocrine disorders, metabolic disturbances, and harms the reproductive system, but it is also believed to be linked to cancer and obesity.
[0003] Traditional detection methods, such as gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS), liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (LC-MS), optical analysis, and electrochemical analysis, offer advantages such as strong separation capabilities and reliable results. However, the expensive instruments and time-consuming nature of these methods limit their application. Electrochemical and optical analysis methods, including spectrophotometry, offer advantages such as low cost, good reproducibility, and ease of operation, but suffer from slow detection speed and discontinuous measurements. In contrast, electrochemical methods are widely used in various fields due to their speed, high accuracy, high sensitivity, good selectivity, simple instrumentation, and ease of automation. These applications include toxicity testing in food safety, detection of harmful components in water for environmental monitoring, and real-time detection in medical diagnostics. Compared to other electrochemical analysis techniques, SGGT offers higher sensitivity and the ability to perform real-time detection. Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) can serve as precursors for porous nanostructured carbon, especially bimetallic MOFs (particularly zinc), which are ideal precursors for obtaining porous carbon materials with high specific surface area and high catalytic activity. Because most zinc evaporates during high-temperature pyrolysis, it inhibits the aggregation of metal oxides, thus ensuring uniform loading of metal oxides onto porous carbon materials. Furthermore, cerium (Ce) is widely used in various catalytic reactions due to its ability to change ionic valence states. These properties make Ce-doped MOFs porous carbon nanomaterials a promising material for electrochemical analysis. Summary of the Invention

The Ce@ZIF8 / C modified gate SGGT sensor prepared by this invention has excellent BPA detection capability, with a detection limit as low as 30 nM and a linear range of 30 nM-1 μM. This detection limit fully meets the sensitivity required for actual detection. In addition, the sensor also exhibits excellent selectivity.

At the same time, dissolve 2-methylimidazolium in methanol solution and stir thoroughly for 10-15 min to obtain mixed solution B. Add mixed solution A to mixed solution B in a volume ratio of (20:1)-(1:10) and allow it to react fully at room temperature for 6-10 h to obtain mixed solution.

[0008] (3) Place Ce@ZIF8 in a tube furnace, fill with nitrogen for 10-60 min, and heat to 600-900℃ under nitrogen atmosphere protection for 2-5 h, then cool down and wait until room temperature to obtain Ce@ZIF8 / C powder.
[0009] (4) Clean the silicon-based carrier and cut it into a substrate for the sensor. Fix the substrate on the photomask and deposit 10 nm of Cr and 100 nm of Au on the substrate surface.

Anneal the transferred device for a period of time and then immerse it in acetone at 50-70°C until the PMMA on the surface of the CVD monolayer graphene is completely removed. Encapsulate the sensor with waterproof glue and silver paste.
[0010] (5) Dissolve chitosan powder in 0.5-5 w / v acetic acid solution and stir thoroughly until the solution is completely clear to obtain acetic acid chitosan solution. Finally, dissolve Ce@ZIF8 / C powder prepared in step (3) in acetic acid chitosan solution and sonicate to obtain electrode modification solution.
[0011] (6) Polish the glassy carbon electrode to a mirror finish, then sonicate to remove surface impurities, dry the glassy carbon electrode surface, add a modification solution, and then dry to obtain the Ce@ZIF8 / C modified SGGT sensor.
[0012] Preferably, in step (1), the mass-to-volume ratio of Zn(NO3)2·6H2O, Ce(NO3)3·6H2O, hexadecyltrimethylammonium bromide and methanol solution is (1-30g):1g:(0.01-0.3g):(20-100mL).
[0013] Preferably, in step (1), the mass-to-volume ratio of 2-methylimidazole to methanol solution is 1 g: (10-30 mL).

[0019] Beneficial effects: The present invention has the following advantages:
[0020] 1. In the synthesis of Ce@ZIF8 / C, this invention adds hexadecyltrimethylammonium bromide. The long alkane chain of hexadecyltrimethylammonium bromide can be adsorbed on the hydrophobic surface of ZIF8, acting as a protective agent to reduce the growth rate of ZIF8 crystals, effectively control its morphology, and ensure that the morphology and size of the generated MOF carbon material meet the ideal standard.
[0021] 2. In this invention, the use of ZIF8 not only facilitates the formation of Ce@ZIF8 / C structure, but also makes zinc an ideal precursor for obtaining porous carbon materials with high specific surface area and high catalytic activity. Most zinc evaporates during high-temperature pyrolysis, inhibiting the aggregation of metal oxides and allowing them to be uniformly loaded onto the porous carbon material. These characteristics enable Ce@ZIF8 / C to have a richer mesoporous structure and good charge transfer ability. At the same time, the cerium uniformly loaded on the material surface has multiple valence states, which is conducive to the catalytic reaction of the material.
[0022] 3. The cerium (Ce) in the Ce@ZIF8 / C material synthesized in this invention can change its ionic valence state in the catalytic reaction and can serve as the active center of the catalytic reaction. The structure of the MOF material can provide it with better catalytic properties and stability. Attached Figure Description

[0079] To evaluate the Ce@ZIF8 / C prepared in Example 1, the morphology of the prepared material was characterized using scanning electron microscopy. Figure 2 It can be clearly seen that Ce@ZIF8 / C retains the unique rhombic dodecahedral structure of the parent ZIF8 even after high-temperature pyrolysis, with an average particle size of approximately 250 nm. Furthermore, X-ray energy dispersive spectroscopy (EDS) analysis of the Ce@ZIF8 / C prepared in Example 1 shows that C, N, and Ce elements are uniformly distributed within its structure. The surfactant cetyltrimethylammonium bromide added during synthesis effectively controls its morphology and size, indicating that cetyltrimethylammonium bromide can act as a protective agent, reducing the growth rate of ZIF8 crystals. The adsorption isotherm results of Example 1 are shown below. Figure 3 As shown in Table 1, Ce@ZIF8 / C exhibits a relatively large number of mesoporous structures, corresponding to the hysteresis loops in the adsorption-desorption isotherms. The total pore volumes of Ce@ZIF8 and Ce@ZIF8 / C are 0.0906 cm³, respectively. 3 ·g and 0.3463cm 3 The latter increased by nearly four times compared to the former. Mesopores can expose more active sites and promote mass transfer, which will be beneficial to improving electrocatalytic performance. The electrochemical impedance differences of the Ce@ZIF8 / C materials prepared in Example 1 and those prepared in Comparative Examples 1-3 were determined by electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS). Figure 4 As can be seen, compared with Comparative Examples 1-3, the material with added hexadecyltrimethylammonium bromide (hexadecyltrimethylammonium bromide) in Example 1 has the smallest Rct value compared with other materials. This indicates that the introduction of hexadecyltrimethylammonium bromide while using Zn(NO3)2·6H2O as a zinc MOF material is beneficial to enhancing electrochemical performance.
[0080] Table 1 shows the specific parameters of the adsorption isotherm curves of the Ce@ZIF8 / C powder prepared in Example 1.
[0081]
[0082] The working principle of the fabricated sensor is as follows: Figure 5 As shown, when the graphene channel and gate electrode (GCE) are simultaneously placed in an electrolyte solution, an electrical double layer (EDL) is formed at the gate electrode / electrolyte and electrolyte / graphene channel interfaces when a voltage is applied. The solid line in the figure represents the potential distribution without the addition of BPA to the system, at a gate voltage (V). G Under the influence of BPA, a voltage value is formed at the interface between the gate electrode and the electrolyte. This voltage value then forms a corresponding voltage value between the electrolyte interface and the graphene channel. This phenomenon is called potential drop. When BPA is added to the system, the potential drop at the gate electrode and the graphene channel is shown by the dashed line. BPA molecules undergo an electro-oxidation-reduction reaction on the surface of the gate electrode, releasing two electrons and two H atoms. + A Faraday current is generated at the gate electrode / electrolyte interface, which causes a change in potential at the two EDLs. The amount of this voltage change is the effective gate voltage change (Δ). This generates a channel current response. Considering that the Ce@ZIF8 / C functionalized SGGT sensor would be subject to interference in practical applications for detecting BPA in aqueous solutions, some ions present in water and 1,4-benzenediol (HQ), which has a structure similar to BPA, were selected as interfering agents for selective testing. Figure 6 The sensor prepared in Example 1 reacts to 100 nM BPA, 1 μM glucose (Glu), and 10 μM Na. + 10μM Mg 2+ 10μM, 10μM SO4 2- And the Δ produced by 100 nM 1,4-benzenediol .Depend on Figure 6 It can be seen that the sensor prepared in Example 1 is effective against 100 nM BPA (Δ) The highest response was obtained from the interference (13.02±0.50mV), while the responses from other interfering substances were relatively low: 1.60±0.12mV for 100nMHQ, 0.68±0.04mV for 1μM Glu, and 0.60±0.04mV for 10μM Na. + The value was 0.33 ± 0.01 mV, and the value was 10 μM Mg. 2+ The concentrations were 1.72 ± 0.29 mV and 10 μM SO4. 2- The values were 1.72 ± 0.29 mV and 10 μM CO3. 2- The value is 0.67 ± 0.02 mV. Therefore, it can be concluded that the Ce@ZIF8 / C functionalized SGGT sensor has a selective response to BPA.
[0083] To evaluate the effectiveness of the Ce@ZIF8 / C functionalized SGGT sensor in detecting BPA, the sensors prepared in Example 1 and Comparative Example 1 were used to perform electrochemical detection of BPA. The SGGT sensor was immersed in a small beaker containing 10 mL of 1×PBS buffer (pH=7.4), and the transfer characteristic curves (I) were measured. Ds -V G ) and channel current versus time response curve (I Ds -t).
[0084] The results are as follows Figure 7 As shown, Figures (a) and (b) are the transfer characteristic curves (V) measured in 1×PBS solution for Comparative Example 1 and Example 1, respectively. G -I Ds The transfer characteristic curves of Comparative Example 1 and Example 1 both exhibit excellent bipolar properties of the graphene material in the channel. Furthermore, Figure 7 (a) and (b) also include the time-current response curves of Comparative Example 1 and Example 1, respectively, for the continuous addition of a certain concentration of BPA. For the sensor prepared in Comparative Example 1, the detection limit is 300 nM; while the detection limit of the sensor prepared in Example 1 is 10 nM. The above results verify that the functionalization of Ce@ZIF8 / C can significantly improve the detection performance of the SGGT sensor for BPA.
[0085] To more intuitively compare the sensitivity of the sensors prepared in Comparative Example 1 and Example 1 in detecting BPA, we fabricated ΔT values for the sensors prepared in Comparative Example 1 and Example 1. The relationship between BPA concentration and logarithm is shown in the graph. Figure 8 As shown in the figure. It can be seen from the figure that within a certain range, △ The linear relationship with the logarithm of BPA concentration is linear, and the linear range of the sensor prepared in Example 1 is larger than that of the sensor prepared in Comparative Example 1. Specifically, the Δ... The slope of the logarithmic relationship with BPA concentration is 6.78 mV / decade. The sensor prepared in Example 1 has a ΔV... The slope of the logarithmic relationship with BPA concentration is 19.2 mV / decade, which fully demonstrates that the modification of the gate electrode by Ce@ZIF8 / C is beneficial to improving the detection sensitivity of the sensor.
