Abstract
pH monitoring in clinical assessment is pivotal as pH imbalance significantly influences the physiological and extracellular functions of the human body. Metal oxide based pH sensors, a promising alternative to bulky pH electrodes, mostly require complex fabrication, high-temperature post-deposition treatment, and high expenses that inhibit their practical applicability. So, there is still room to develop a straightforward and cost-effective metal oxide based pH sensor comprising high sensitivity and reliability. In this report, a novel solution-processed and low-temperature annealed (220 °C) mixed-valence (vii/vi) oxide of rhenium (Re x O y ) was applied in an electrolyte-insulator-semiconductor (EIS) structure. The annealing effect on morphological, structural, and compositional properties was scrutinized by physical and chemical characterizations. The post-annealed Re x O y exhibited a high pH sensitivity (57.3 mV pH-1, R 2 = 0.99), a lower hysteresis (4.7 mV), and a reduced drift rate (1.7 mV h-1) compared to the as-prepared sample for an analytically acceptable pH range (2-12) along with good stability and reproducibility. The magnified sensing performance originated due to the valence state of Re from Re6+ to Re7+ attributed to each electron transfer for a single H+ ion. The device showed high selectivity for H+ ions, which was confirmed by the interference study with other relevant ions. The feasibility of the sensor was verified by measuring the device in real samples. Hence, the ease-of-fabrication and notable sensing performance of the proposed sensor endorsed its implementation for diagnosing pH-related diseases.

Slow Magnetic Relaxation in {[CoCxAPy)] 2.15 H 2O} n MOF Built from Ladder-Structured 2D Layers with Dimeric SMM Rungs. Molecules 2021; 26:5626. [PMID: 34577095 PMCID: PMC8466197 DOI: 10.3390/molecules26185626] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/21/2021] [Revised: 09/03/2021] [Accepted: 09/10/2021] [Indexed: 11/17/2022] Open
Abstract
We present the magnetic properties of the metal-organic framework {[CoCxAPy]·2.15 H2O}n (Cx = bis(carboxypropyl)tetramethyldisiloxane; APy = 4,4`-azopyridine) (1) that builds up from the stacking of 2D coordination polymers. The 2D-coordination polymer in the bc plane is formed by the adjacent bonding of [CoCxAPy] 1D two-leg ladders with Co dimer rungs, running parallel to the c-axis. The crystal packing of 2D layers shows the presence of infinite channels running along the c crystallographic axis, which accommodate the disordered solvate molecules. The Co(II) is six-coordinated in a distorted octahedral geometry, where the equatorial plane is occupied by four carboxylate oxygen atoms. Two nitrogen atoms from APy ligands are coordinated in apical positions. The single-ion magnetic anisotropy has been determined by low temperature EPR and magnetization measurements on an isostructural compound {[Zn0.8Co0.2CxAPy]·1.5 CH3OH}n (2). The results show that the Co(II) ion has orthorhombic anisotropy with the hard-axis direction in the C2V main axis, lying the easy axis in the distorted octahedron equatorial plane, as predicted by the ab initio calculations of the g-tensor. Magnetic and heat capacity properties at very low temperatures are rationalized within a S* = 1/2 magnetic dimer model with anisotropic antiferromagnetic interaction. The magnetic dimer exhibits slow relaxation of the magnetization (SMM) below 6 K in applied field, with a tlf ≈ 2 s direct process at low frequencies, and an Orbach process at higher frequencies with U/kB = 6.7 ± 0.5 K. This compound represents a singular SMM MOF built-up of Co-dimers with an anisotropic exchange interaction.
