The photostimulated adsorption of glucose oxidase (GOx) on the surface of single-crystalline Si wafers with an amorphous silicon (a-Si) layer was examined. Estimation of the difference between the surface coverage by GOx molecules deposited under illumination and in the dark showed that this value increased for the structures with a-Si layer by a factor of 2.5 in the case of n -Si and by a factor of 1.5 in the case of p -Si. It is revealed that the n -Si/a-Si structures can be used for preliminary photostimulation of the GOx adsorption process.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
