A phosphonium-type ionic liquid-modified Au electrode: a new platform for entrapping functional molecules on substrate surfaces.
The liquid state of a bulky phosphonium-type ionic compound with a disulphide group was used to modify a Au substrate with effective dispersion. The substrate incorporates external compounds into the vacant space formed inside the ionic liquid regardless of the net charge of the compounds without any direct bonding.
