Abstract

Designable and ultrathin covalent organic framework nanosheets (CONs) with good photoelectric activity are promising candidates for the construction of photoelectrochemical (PEC) biosensors for the detection of low-abundance biological substrates. However, achieving highly sensitive PEC properties by using emerging covalent organic framework nanosheets (CONs) remains a great challenge due to the polymeric nature and poor photoelectric activity of CONs. Herein, we report for the first time the preparation of novel composites and their PEC sensing properties by electrostatic self-assembly of ultrathin CONs (called TTPA-CONs) with Ti3C2Tx. The prepared TTPA-CONs/Ti3C2Tx composites can be used as photocathodes for PEC detection of prostate-specific antigen (PSA) with high sensitivity, low detection limit, and good stability. This work not only expands the application of CONs but also opens new avenues for the development of efficient PEC sensing platforms.
