Abstract EN
ZnO nanowire arrays were grown on a Si (100) substrate using the vapor-liquid-solid (VLS) method.
ZnO nanowires were characterized by XRD, SEM, bright field TEM, and EDS.
They were found to have a preferential orientation along the c-axis.
The as-prepared sample was functionalized with glucose oxidase by physical adsorption.
FTIR was taken before and after functionalization to verify the presence of the attached enzyme.
Electrochemical measurements were performed on the nanowire array by differential pulse voltammetry in the range of −0.6 to 0.4 V.
The nanoarray sensor displayed high sensitivity to glucose in the range of 1.0 ×10−4 to 1.0 ×10−2 mol L−1.
