High-sensitivity light-addressable potentiometric sensors using silicon on sapphire functionalized with self-assembled organic monolayers (2014)
Journal Article
Wang, J., Zhou, Y., Watkinson, M., Gautrot, J., & Krause, S. (2015). High-sensitivity light-addressable potentiometric sensors using silicon on sapphire functionalized with self-assembled organic monolayers. Sensors and Actuators B: Chemicall, 209, 230-236. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.snb.2014.11.071

The use of self-assembled organic monolayers as the insulator in light-addressable potentiometric sensors (LAPS) is shown for the first time. Silicon on sapphire (SOS) substrates were modified with 1-octadecene or undecylenic acid. Experiments with a...

We describe a one-pot strategy for the high yielding, operationally simple synthesis of fluorescent probes for Zn2+ that bear biological targeting groups and exemplify the utility of our method through the preparation of a small library of sensors. I... Read More about Biologically targeted probes for Zn2+: a diversity oriented modular “click-SNAr-click” approach.
