Abstract
Molybdenum-doped BiVO4 thin films were uniformly coated on indium-doped tin oxide (ITO) substrates via a facile modified hot spin coating (HSC) technique. The prepared layers were used as photoanode in a photoelectrochemical (PEC) cell. Different percentage of Mo dopant was examined to maximize the photo-current density (J) of the layers. The highest J value (872 ± 8 μA/cm2) was obtained by 5 atomic% of Mo doping. After that, the surface topographies of these samples were changed by varying the initial precursor concentration from 27 to 80 mM. The relation between surface topographies and the PEC activity of Mo-doped BiVO4 thin films was investigated from microscopic point of view by calculating the surface roughness exponent of α, and a mechanism for the PEC activity of Mo-doped BiVO4 photoanodes was proposed accordingly. The sample with a small roughness exponent provided a surface with jagged microscopic fluctuations which may trap the air molecules between the electrolyte and sample surface, hindering the fine atomic interaction for photo-generated electron-hole transition. Therefore, the layer with the highest roughness exponent (2α = 0.48 ± 0.03), which means the smoother microscopic surface and better interfacial contact with the electrolyte, exhibited the best PEC activity.

Abstract
Exposure to thallium (Tl), a noxious heavy metal, poses significant health risks to both humans and animals upon ingestion. Therefore, monitoring Tl levels in the environment is crucial to prevent human exposure and reduce the risk of developing severe health problems. This paper presents the development of a highly sensitive Tl ions sensor through surface modification of a glassy carbon electrode with a nanocomposite comprising MnO2 magnetic sepiolite and multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MnO2@Fe3O4/Sep/MWCNT/GCE). Multiple methodologies were employed to assess the performance of the newly developed sensor. By employing square wave anodic stripping voltammetry (SWASV) to optimize the measurement conditions, notable enhancements were observed in the stripping peak currents of Tl (I) on the MnO2@Fe3O4/Sep/MWCNT/GCE surface. The effectiveness of the nanocomposite in facilitating electron transfer between the Tl (I) ions (guest) and the electrode (host) was demonstrated from the enhanced signals observed at the different modified electrode surfaces under optimal conditions. The developed sensor displayed a wide linear range of 0.1-1500 ppb for Tl (I) and a low detection limit of 0.03 ppb for Tl (I). It was found to be selective for Tl (I) ions while remaining unaffected by interfering non-target ions in the presence of the target ions. Despite its simple preparation procedure, the modified electrode exhibited high stability and excellent reproducibility for measuring Tl (I). The outstanding electroanalytical performances of the MnO2@Fe3O4/Sep/MWCNT/GCE electrode enabled its successful use as an ultrasensitive sensor for determining trace amounts of Tl in environmental samples.

Abstract
Our investigation aimed to create and manufacture an electrochemical impedance sensor with the purpose of improving the detection efficiency of melatonin (ME). To achieve this objective, we employed gold nanoparticles coated on polydopamine formed in glassy carbon electrodes (AuNPs/PDA/GCE) as a means to enhance the sensor's capabilities. A novel approach employing the signal-off strategy and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) technique was utilized to determine ME. When the AuNPs/PDA/GCE electrode was immersed in a buffered solution containing ME, and the oxidation current of AuNPs was recorded, it was observed that the oxidation current of AuNPs decreased upon the introduction of ME molecules. The decrease in electrical current can be ascribed to the inhibitory impact of ME molecule adsorption on the electrode surface with applying -0.2 V for 150 s in acetate buffer solution (ABS) (pH, 5) through various mechanisms, which hinders the electron transfer process crucial for AuNPs oxidation. Consequently, by utilizing EIS, various concentrations of ME were quantified spanning from 1 to 18 pM. Moreover, the ME sensor achieved an impressive detection limit of 0.32 pM, indicating its remarkable sensitivity in detecting low concentrations of ME. Importantly, these novel sensors demonstrated exceptional attributes in terms of sensitivity, specificity, stability, and repeatability. The outstanding performance of these sensors, coupled with their desirable attributes, establishes their considerable potential for a wide range of practical applications. These applications encompass various fields such as clinical diagnostics, pharmaceutical analysis, environmental monitoring, and industrial quality control, where accurate and sensitive detection of ME is of utmost importance.

Abstract
Herein, simultaneous determination of Tl (1) and Pb (II) has been carried out at the surface of a modified glassy carbon electrode with polydopamine functionalized multi-walled carbon nanotubes- BiNPs nanocomposite (BiNPs/MWCNTs-PDA/GC) using square-wave anodic stripping voltammetry (SWASV) technique. The morphologies, composition and, electrochemical properties of the BiNPs/MWCNTs-PDA/GC were characterized by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transition electron microscopy (TEM), X-ray energy dispersive spectroscopy (EDX), electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) and, SWASV. The parameters affecting the stripping current response were investigated and optimized. The large specific area of MWCNTs and good electro-conductibility of BiNPs causes the BiNPs/MWCNTs-PDA/GC electrode to exhibit an excellent electro-catalytic effect with good separation peaks for Tl and Pb oxidation compared to bare GCE under the optimal conditions. The proposed sensor showed wide leaner ranges from 0.4-100 ppb and 100-400 ppb for Tl (I) and Pb (II). Low detection limits of 0.04 ppb for Tl (I) and 0.07 ppb for Pb (II) were achieved. The efficiency of the electrode after thirty days of storage in ambient conditions without using it and also with the ability to reuse for 16 days did not decrease significantly. In addition, the modified electrode with simple preparation method showed good reproducibility, and high selectivity for measuring target ions. The method was successfully implemented for the simultaneous determination of Tl (I) and Pb (II) in tap, mineral and waste water samples with acceptable recovery (from 99.1-103.2 for Tl (I) and 98.4-100.4 for Pb (II)).

Abstract
:
N,Nʹ-dialkylimidazolium-ion liquids is one of the important ionic liquids with a wide range of application as
conductive electrolyte and in electrochemistry. The modified electrodes create a new view in fabrication of
electroanalytical sensors. Many modifiers have beeen suggested for modification of electroanalytical sensor since many
years ago. Over these years, ionic liquids and especially room temperature ionic liquids have attracted more attention due
to their wide range of electrochemical windows and high electrical conductivity. N,Nʹ-dialkylimidazolium-ion liquids are
one of the main important ionic liquids suggested for modification of bare electrodes and especially carbon paste
electrodes. Although many review articles have reported onthe use of ionic liquids in electrochemical sensors, no review
article has been specifically introduced so far on the review of the advantages of N,Nʹ-dialkylimidazolium ionic liquid.
Therefore, in this review paper we focused on the introduction of recent advantages of N,Nʹ-dialkyl imidazolium ionic
liquid in electrochemistry.
