Outline of Final Research Achievements |
A monolayer of gold nanoparticles (AuNP) on an electrode was constructed by using DNA hybridization between oligonucleotides on the AuNP and on the electrode. The electrochemical response of the AuNP-modified electrode was observed by electrochemical measurements after the modification of the surface with perylenediimide dyes used as photoactive molecules. Light irradiation on the surface without the AuNP showed weak photocurrent, while strong photocurrent generation was observed when the electrode was covered with the AuNP. This enhancement was explained by an increase in the excitation efficiency of the PDI molecules bound to the DNA connecting the electrode and the AuNP.
