摘要
金属单原子和纳米颗粒哪一种更适合作为传感材料?本文研究了铜单原子(Cu SAs)和铜纳米颗粒(CuNPs)对 H2O2 还原和葡萄糖氧化的电催化行为。令人惊讶的是,铜单原子和铜纳米粒子对 H2O2 和葡萄糖的电催化活性存在显著差异。与 CuNPs 相比,Cu SAs 在 H2O2 的电催化还原中表现出突出的活性,但在葡萄糖的电催化氧化中却没有活性。相反,CuNPs 在葡萄糖的电化学氧化中表现出优异的活性,但在 H2O2 还原中的电催化活性很弱。DFT 结果表明,在 Cu SAs 上更有利于 H2O2 还原,但在 CuNPs 上葡萄糖的电化学氧化需要克服的能量障碍比在 Cu SAs 上要低得多。这项研究证明,金属单原子和纳米粒子都不是万能的,这为构建高活性传感材料提供了思路。
Selecting effective sensing material from metal single-atoms and nanoparticles for boosting electrochemical sensing
Which is more suitable as the sensing material for metal single-atoms and nanoparticles? Here, the electrocatalytic behaviors of copper single-atoms (Cu SAs) and copper nanoparticles (CuNPs) toward H2O2 reduction and glucose oxidation were studied. Surprisingly, the electrocatalytic activity of Cu SAs and CuNPs showed significant differences for H2O2 and glucose. Compared with CuNPs, Cu SAs exhibit outstanding activity in electrocatalytic reduction of H2O2, but are inert in the electrocatalytic oxidation of glucose. On the contrary, CuNPs exhibit excellent activity in the electrochemical oxidation of glucose, but have very weak electrocatalytic activity for H2O2 reduction. DFT results show that H2O2 reduction is more favourable on Cu SAs, but the electrochemical oxidation of glucose on CuNPs requires overcoming much lower energy barriers than on Cu SAs. This study proves that both metal single-atoms and nanoparticles are not omnipotent, which provides ideas for constructing highly active sensing materials.
