Enhanced electrogenerated chemiluminescence of a ruthenium tris(2,2')bipyridyl/tripropylamine system on a boron-doped diamond nanograss array.
Significant enhancement of the ECL signals from the Ru(bpy)(3)(2+)/TPA system was achieved when using a BDD nanograss array, mainly because of the highly facile oxidation of TPA. The facile oxidation of TPA is due to the superior properties of the BDD nanograss array, such as improved electrocatalytic activity and accelerated electron transfer.
