    Area of Science:

    • Materials Science
    • Electrochemistry
    • Sensor Technology

    Background:

    • Potentiometric pH sensors are crucial for environmental monitoring.
    • Existing sensors often face limitations in sensitivity and performance in complex matrices.
    • Developing novel materials and sensor architectures is essential for improved pH detection.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To develop a new potentiometric pH sensor with enhanced sensitivity exceeding the theoretical Nernstian limit.
    • To utilize 1D tungsten oxide nanofibers (WO3 NFs) for improved sensor performance.
    • To demonstrate the sensor's applicability in monitoring ocean environments.

    Main Methods:

    • Fabrication of 1D WO3 nanofibers with high surface area and porosity.
    • Stabilization of WO3 NFs in a porous chloromethylated triptycene poly(ether sulfone) (Cl-TPES) binder.
    • Utilizing a differential amplifier with matched MOSFETs for signal amplification.

    Main Results:

    • Achieved a high pH sensitivity of -377.5 mV/pH, significantly exceeding the Nernstian behavior (-59.1 mV/pH).
    • Demonstrated excellent linearity (0.9847) over the pH range of 6.90-8.94.
    • Obtained improved signal-to-noise ratios with a 175 mV EMF change in artificial seawater (pH 8.07-7.64).

    Conclusions:

    • The novel potentiometric pH sensor based on WO3 nanofibers offers superior sensitivity and performance.
    • The sensor design facilitates proton diffusion and signal amplification for robust measurements.
    • The demonstrated application in artificial seawater highlights its potential for real-time ocean pH monitoring.
