Abstract

AbstractIn situ electrochemical synthesis of an organic‐inorganic hybrid material composed of poly(3,4‐ethylenedioxythiophene) (PEDOT) and nickel‐based Keggin type polyoxometalate, K7[NiIIINiII(H2O)W11O39].15H2O(NiPOM), has been proposed here. The remarkable optical and electrical properties of the PEDOT and the unique redox properties of NiPOM have synergistically combined to make the hybrid structure highly desired multi‐functional materials for a myriad of applications. The driving force for the formation of hybrid structure is thought to be electrostatic interactions between POM anions and cationic polaron/bipolaron structures that in the PEDOT. PEDOT/NiPOM based hybrid composite modified graphite electrode has been used for non‐enzymatic glucose sensor platform as a sample of applications. Furthermore, PEDOT/NiPOM based sensor platform was successfully utilized for detection of glucose content with the lowest detection limit in real samples like honey and milk. These results suggest that PEDOT/NiPOM metal‐organic hybrid composite could be utilized as multi‐functional material for a myriad of applications.
