Synthesis of Cu_xO/Ag nanoparticles on exfoliated graphene: application for enhanced electrochemical detection of H₂O₂ in milk.

ABSTRACT: In this paper, a novel composite is constructed as a non-enzymatic hydrogen peroxide (H₂O₂) sensor by liquid-phase exfoliation method, which is composed of copper oxide, cuprous oxide and silver nanoparticles doped few-layer-graphene (Cu_xO/Ag@FLG). Its surface morphology and composition were characterized by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and X-ray photo spectroscopy (XPS), and its H₂O₂ sensing performances include catalytic reduction and quantitative detection were studied with electrochemical methods. Our sensor had a high sensitivity of 174.5 μA mM^-1 cm^-2 (R² = 0.9978) in an extremely wide range of concentrations from 10 μM to 100 mM, a fast response (about 5 s) and a low limit of detection (S/N
