Composite 2D Nanointerfaces for Electrochemical Biosensing: An Experimental and Theoretical Study.

In this study, composite two-dimensional (2D) materials consisting of graphene (Gr) and tungsten disulfide (WS) were coalesced with gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) through a self-assembly process to boost the conductivity of the resulting graphene-tungsten disulfide-gold nanoparticles (Gr-WS-AuNPs) nanointerface structure. Structural and morphological characterization of the nanohybrid structure reveals crystalline thin flakelike agglomerates. Electrochemical characterization reveals an excellent electron transfer process for all the modified electrodes at the interface.

Comparative Photocatalytic Degradation of Monoazo and Diazo Dyes Under Simulated Visible Light Using Fe3+/C/S doped-TiO2 Nanoparticles.

This research work delved into the photocatalytic degradation of monoazo dye (methyl orange) and diazo dye (congo red) in aqueous solution using Fe3+/C/S-doped TiO2 nanocomposites. The nanocomposites were synthesised through sol-gel method and characterized using XRD, FTIR, SEM, TEM, EDX, BET and UV-Vis. Photocatalytic degradation of the dyes was monitored under simulated visible light using pristine TiO2, C/S/doped-TiO2 and Fe3+/C/S doped-TiO2 with varying concentrations of Fe3+.
