研究実績の概要 |
The aim of the proposed research plan is to develop a bipolar electrochemical method for the generation of electrochemiluminescence (ECL) from organic molecules in aqueous solution. The method relies on the use of micelles generated by a redox-active surfactant where the organic molecule is entrapped and dissolved in water. At present, the micelle disruption method has been implemented to form a film of an organic molecule, such as 9,10-diphenylanthracene (DPA), on the electrode and, after addition of a coreactant like tri-n-propylamine (TPrA), ECL emission has been detected and the light intensity is correlated with the thickness of the film formed on the electrode.
