Tracer and surface spectroscopy studies of sensitivity mechanism of mercury ion chalcogenide glass sensors

About 20 Years of Silicon‐Based Thin‐Film Sensors with Chalcogenide Glass Materials for Heavy Metal Analysis: Technological Aspects of Fabrication and Miniaturization

“…(10). Another example for a thin-film sensor based on chalcogenide glasses that has been fabricated by means of the vacuum evaporation process is described by Miloshova et al [39]. As original target material AgBr-Ag 2 S-As 2 S 3 has been chosen.…”

Surface studies of a chalcogenide glass ferric ion‐selective electrode Part 1: Influence of ferric and hydroxide ions on interfacial kinetics

“…have provided important information pertaining to the response mechanism of various solid-state 18 -27 and plasticized PVC 28 ISEs. It is worth noting that a limited number of SIMS studies involving characterization of the MSLs of Hg II and Pb II chalcogenide glass ISEs, 24,27 as well as studies of the surface heterogeneity of polymer membrane ISEs, 28 have been published in the scientific literature, verifying the suitability of SIMS for the characterization of ISEs. Subsequently, the present XPS, SIMS, SEM and EIS study of the Fe III chalcogenide glass membrane was deemed appropriate.…”

In situ synchrotron radiation grazing incidence X-ray diffraction—A powerful technique for the characterization of solid-state ion-selective electrode surfaces

“…Early studies by Vlasov and co-workers established the analytical characteristics of many chalcogenide glass ionselective electrodes (ISEs) and demonstrated that this group of electrochemical sensors can play an important part in environmental and industrial monitoring [9][10][11][12][13]. Similarly, there has been considerable interest in the structural and conduction properties of these materials [5,[14][15][16][17][18][19]. It is reported that the chalcogen alloys behave both as electronic and ionic conductors, and the conductivity of chalcogenide glasses have been shown to vary over many orders of magnitude [20].…”

“…A number of reviews have been published that discuss the general response mechanism of chalcogenide glass ISEs [9][10][11][12][13][14][15][16][17][18][19][20]. It has been suggested that the response and selectivity of chalcogenide glasses can be rationalised in terms of the relative position of their Fermi levels and the position of the redox couple in the EMF series [22][23][24].…”
