Ultra‐low LOD H2O2 Sensor Based on Synergistic Nernst Potential Effect

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Due to the synergistic effect of ENernst,H2O2${E}_{\mathrm{Nernst},\ {\mathrm{H}}_{2}{\mathrm{O}}_{2}}$ and ENernst,H+${E}_{\mathrm{Nernst},\ {\mathrm{H}}^{+}}$, the proposed sensors in this study can achieve ultralow H2O2 detection limit as low as 1.8 × 10−12 M based on the stacked PEDOT: BTB/PEDOT: PSS semiconducting layer.
