✦ Synopsis


Electroluminescence semiconductor optrodes (EJ_SOs), electrochemical optical sensor systems based on recording the electroluminescence response from semiconductor electrodes, have been proposed for the detection and analysis of chemical species in solution. The possibility of developing an ELSO sensitive to hydrogen peroxide in alkaline solutions has been demonstrated using TiOl film electrodes. The electroluminescence from this optrode arises under conditions of negative polarization as a result of hole injection in the TiOz from high-energy OIF radicals formed by the electroreduction of H,O, on the electrode surface. The integrated electmluminescence response as well as a value of the electroluminescence intensity measured immediately after applying the pulsed polarization change linearly on a logarithmic scale when the HzOz concentration changes in the range 1O-3-5X1O-' mol 1-l.
