Development of boron doped diamond electrodes material for heavy metal ion sensor with high sensitivity and durability

• We report on the optimized substrate pretreatment and deposition process conditions for boron-doped diamond (BDD) electrodes fabricated by hot-filament chemical vapor deposition (HFCVD). The optimized BDD electrode with a doping concentration of 8000 ppm showed high accuracy and precision in detecting Cd(II), Pb(II), and Cu(II) ions. In addition, this demonstrates excellent selectivity against external metal ions under the optimized stripping voltammetry measurement conditions. The detection limits of the target ions of Cd(II), Pb(II), and Cu(II) were 0.55 (+/- 0.05), 0.43 (+/- 0.04), and 0.74 (+/- 0.06) mg/L (S/N = 3), respectively. In real samples spiked with 100 mg/L Cd(II), Pb(II), and Cu(II), both the accuracy and precision of the BDD electrode were within 5%; the interference with organic matter was also negligible. The excellent selectivity and long-term stability indicate that the BDD electrode developed in this study are potentially useful for online water environment monitoring systems.
