A versatile photo-electrochemical (PEC) sensor protocol was established to quantitatively monitor dopamine (DA) levels by utilizing a triple interconnected structure of cadmium sulfide (CdS) modified with gold and graphene quantum dots (Au/GQDs). The introduction of Au and GQDs on the photocatalytic active center of CdS act as a charge separation mediator and photosensitizer, respectively, which are favorable for charge separation and transportation and PEC conversion. When the CdS/Au/GQDs photoelectrode was utilized for DA sensing in a weak alkaline solution, DA was oxidized and converted to poly(dopamine) (PDA), which possesses abundant benzoquinone (BQ) groups that act as electron acceptors. Consequently, the electron acceptors formed in-situ on the surface of the photoelectrode, reducing the anodic photocurrent signal. Under the optimal conditions, the photocurrent decreased when the DA concentration increased in a dynamic working range from 0.1 to 350 mu M and with a limit of detection (LoD) of 0.0078 mu M. Herein, the proposed strategy involving photoelectron transfer between the electron acceptor and semiconductor provides a new and versatile protocol for PEC sensor development. (C) 2020 Elsevier Ltd.
