Graphene-CdS (G-CdS) nanocomposites were successfully prepared by CdS nanocrystals (CIS NCs) formed in situ on the surface of graphene sheets, using graphene oxide (GO) sheets with rich negatively charged carboxylic acid groups as starting materials. Compared with pure CdS NCs, the presence of the graphene doped in G-CdS nanocomposites could facilitate the electrochemical redox process of CdS NCs: further, the as-prepared G-CdS nanocomposite can react with H2O2 to generate strong and stable electrochemiluminescent (ECL) emission, which not only enhances its ECL intensity by about 4.3-fold but also decreases its onset potential for about 320 mV. The as-prepared solid-state ECL H2O2 sensor shows acceptable linear response from 5 mu M up to 1 mM with a detection limit of 1.7 mu M (S/N =3). The ECL H2O2 sensor exhibits excellent reproducibility and long-term stability. Such a property would promote the potential application of the graphene as enhanced materials in fabricating sensors for chemical and biochemical analysis. (C) 2010 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
