To achieve highly sensitive and reproducible detection of mercury ions (Hg2+).

Main Methods:

Fabrication of a carbon microelectrode array (CMA) using 60 precisely arranged carbon fibers in a spiral fashion.
Electrochemical deposition of gold (Au) onto the CMA to create the GMA sensor.
Testing the GMA sensor for the detection of Hg(2+) in low concentration ranges.
Evaluating sensor-to-sensor reproducibility through independent fabrication and measurement.

Main Results:

The GMA sensor successfully detected Hg(2+) in a low concentration range.
The spirally arranged microelectrodes effectively minimized diffusive interference.
High sensor-to-sensor reproducibility was achieved due to the simple fabrication process.
The proposed GMA sensor demonstrated high sensitivity for Hg(2+) detection.

Conclusions:

The developed GMA sensor provides a simple and reproducible platform for electrochemical sensing.
The design effectively addresses diffusive interference, enhancing detection performance.
This method offers a promising approach for sensitive and reproducible detection of heavy metal ions like Hg(2+).
