Article Abstract

Self-powered photoelectrochemical (PEC) sensing, as an emerging sensing mode, can effectively solve the problems such as weak anti-interference ability and poor signal response of individual photoanode or photocathode sensing. In this work, an ITO/Co-CuInS photocathode and ITO/WO@CdS photoanode based self-powered cathodic PEC immunosensor was developed, which integrated dual-photoelectrode to synergistic amplify the signal for highly sensitive and specific detection of carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA). The self-powered PEC sensor could drive electrons transfer through the difference in Fermi levels between the two photoelectrodes without an external bias voltage. The photoanode was introduced to amplify the photoelectric signal, and the photocathode was only designed for the construction of sensing interfaces. The proposed sensor quantitatively determined the target CEA with the detection limit of 0.23 pg/mL and a linear correlation confine of 0.1 pg/mL ∼100 ng/mL. The constructed immunosensing platform exhibited high sensitivity, satisfactory stability and great biological detection selectivity, providing a feasible and effective strategy for the manufacture of new self-powered sensors in high-performance PEC bioanalytical applications.

Organic photoelectrochemical transistor (OPECT) has emerged as a promising platform for investigating photoactive biomolecular interactions and advancing bioanalytical detection systems. However, many important challenges and hurdles remain implementing high gating effects and sensitive biosensing detection caused by the inherent limitations of the configuration of the photoelectrode structures and innovative biosensing. Inspired by the self-powered photoelectrochemical (PEC) systems and liposomes-assisted bioanalysis for signal amplification, a bipolar-driven poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene): poly(styrene sulfonate) (PEDOT:PSS) OPECT based on CdS/Mixed Metal Metal-Organic Framework (MM-MOF) photoanode and a poly(1,4-diethynylbenzene) (pDEB) cathode is proposed, and exhibits a considerable current gain of ca.

The sluggish interfacial reaction of the photocathode seriously hinders the application of self-powered photoelectrochemical (PEC) systems. In order to solve the above problem, iron single-atom catalysts (Fe SACs) were used to accelerate the oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) at the photocathode interface. It made dissolved oxygen and water circulate efficiently between the photoanode BiS and the photocathode CuO/CuSnS interface, inhibited photogenerated carrier recombination, and greatly enhanced the cathodic photocurrent.
