Abstract
A sensitive hydrogen peroxide (H 2O 2) sensor was fabricated based on graphene–Pt (GN–Pt) nanocomposite. The GN–Pt was synthesized by photochemical reduction of K 2PtCl 4 on GNs, and characterized by atomic force microscope (AFM), transmission electron microscope (TEM), and energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS). Electrochemical investigations indicated that the GN–Pt exhibited a high peak current and low overpotential towards the reduction of H 2O 2. The GN–Pt modified glass carbon electrode displayed a wide linear range (2–710 μM), low limit of detection (0.5 μM) and good selectivity for detection of H 2O 2 with a much higher sensitivity than that of Pt nanoparticles or graphene modified electrode.
