Ultra-Low Content Bismuth-Anchored Gold Aerogels with Plasmon Property for Enhanced Nonenzymatic Electrochemical Glucose Sensing.

Effective glucose surveillance provides a strong guarantee for the high-quality development of human health. Au nanomaterials possess compelling applications in nonenzymatic electrochemical glucose biosensors owing to superior catalytic performances and intriguing biocompatibility properties. However, it has been a grand challenge to accurately control the architecture and composition of Au nanomaterials to optimize their optical, electronic, and magnetic properties for further improving the performance of electrocatalytic sensing. Herein, ultra-low content Bi-anchored Au aerogels are synthesized via a one-step reduction strategy. Benefiting from the unique structure of aerogels as well as the synergistic effect between Au and Bi, the optimized Au200Bi aerogels greatly boost the activity of glucose oxidation compared with Au aerogels. Under plasmon resonance excitation, bimetallic Au200Bi aerogels with wider photics-dependent properties further show plasmon-promoted glucose electro-oxidation activity, which is derived from the photothermal and photoelectric effects caused by the local surface plasmon resonance. Thanks to the enhanced performance, a nonenzymatic electrochemical glucose biosensor is constructed to detect glucose with high sensitivity. This plasmon-promoted electrocatalytic activity through the synergetic strategy of bimetallic aerogels has potential applications in various research fields.
