초록

A novel method using intense pulsed light (IPL) for the metal nano-island formation on carbon nanotube (CNT) was introduced. The sudden irradiation of high intensity of light on the Pt sputtered CNT causes surface-energy-driven diffusion at the interface and forms the array of Pt islands by the capillary instability. Cyclic voltammetry showed a dramatically improved glucose oxidation at the morphology modified Pt - CNT electrode compared to the same amount Pt sputtered CNT electrode. The power densities of glucose/air biofuel cell based on the IPL assisted sputtered Pt - CNT electrode and as sputtered Pt - CNT electrode were 0.768 μW/cm2 and 0.178 μW/cm2, respectively.
