Abstract
Metal–organic frameworks (MOFs) are believed to be promising precursors for constructing novel and efficient catalysts for glucose sensing. Herein, HKUST-1 precursors are first fabricated using a one-pot hydrothermal approach, and then HKUST-1 is converted into porous Cu2S/CuO octahedrons through conformal sulfidation with the help of OH− ions. The as-obtained Cu2S/CuO composite can provide rich electrochemical active sites and promoted electric transfer kinetics. Benefiting from these combined merits, the as-fabricated Cu2S/CuO composite is confirmed to be a high-performance catalyst, with high sensitivities of 8269.45 and 4140.82 μA mM−1cm−2 in the corresponding ranges of 0.05 ∼ 0.6 mM and 0.6 ∼ 1.2 mM, respectively. Moreover, the as-prepared electrode materials possess good anti-interference ability, reproducibility and long-term stability. This work opens up new avenues for the design and preparation of transition metal sulfide composites.
