Analytical Chemistry and Nanotechnology and Material Science

Our research interests are in the emerging field of nanoelectrochemistry. We employ nanometer-sized electrochemical probes for molecular level characterization of chemical processes and materials. A wide variety of phenomena are studied including charge-transfer reactions at the solid/liquid and liquid/liquid interfaces, nucleation/growth of metals and conductive polymers, bioelectrochemistry, and electrochemical imaging. The main focus is on obtaining quantitative physico-chemical information by combination of experiments with mathematical modeling and computer simulations. Scanning electrochemical microscopy (SECM) is used as a tool for these studies. This method combines the capabilities of microelectrode electrochemistry with those of scanning probe microscopies, such as STM. It can provide spatially resolved information about local chemical properties of various surfaces. An SECM probe is a small (nm-sized) electrode, which can penetrate thin films and biological membranes and be used to extract information about potentials, kinetics, and chemical composition. We employ SECM to investigate the dynamics of electron and ion transfers at the interfaces and inside immobilized biological cells and to probe catalytic reactions at individual namopartickes. We also maintain an active interest in development of electrochemical techniques for analytical applications. These include carbon nanoprobes, pipette-based amperometric sensors, and resistive-pulse sensors.
