Self-powered photoelectrochemical aptasensor based on phosphorus doped porous ultrathin g-C3N4 nanosheets enhanced by surface plasmon resonance effect

This work reports a facile and sensitive self-powered cathodic photoelectrochemical (PEC) aptasensor for the detection of oxytetracycline (OTC) based on Au nanoparticles-decorated phosphorus-doped porous ultrathin g-C3N4 nanosheets (Au/PCN-S). The prepared PCN-S possesses large specific surface area with abundant in-plane pores on its surface, ideal biocompatibility, and excellent visible light response. The in situ photo-reduced Au...
