Electrochemical sensor formed from poly(3,4-ethylenedioxyselenophene) and nitrogen-doped graphene composite for dopamine detection.

ABSTRACT: In this study, an electrochemical sensor for dopamine (DA) detection has been developed by a composite of poly(3,4-ethylenedioxyselenophene) (PEDOS) and nitrogen-doped graphene (PEDOS/N-Gr) using an in situ polymerization method. Its structure and properties were then compared with those of the composites of poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene) (PEDOT)/nitrogen-doped graphene (PEDOT/N-Gr), which were prepared by the same methods. FT-IR, Raman, UV-vis, XPS, mapping and SEM investigated the structure and morphology of these composites. These revealed that PEDOS/N-Gr had a higher conjugation degree than PEDOT/N-Gr. The synergetic effect between PEDOS and N-Gr was beneficial for the formation of a homogenous surface coating. The cyclic voltammetry (CV) and differential pulse voltammetry (DP
