Tune it in a ‘click’: a novel technique easily enhances the properties of nanostructured films for biosensors
In a study published in 'Small', a team of researchers led by members of the ICN2 Nanobioelectronics and Biosensors Group introduced 'click sintering', an innovative method to improve the properties of gold nanoparticle films instantaneously. This technique, which can be applied to a variety of substrates and does not require expensive equipment, increases the conductivity and nanostructuration/porosity of the films. It enables the fabrication of customised electrodes and surfaces for applications in flexible electronics and highly sensitive biosensors.
