Abstract

We report the synthesis of phosphorus-doped ZnIn<sub>2</sub>S<sub>4</sub> (ZnIn<sub>2</sub>S<sub>4-x</sub>P<sub>x</sub>) materials through a solid/gas-phase reaction. ZnIn<sub>2</sub>S<sub>4-x</sub>P<sub>x</sub> shows enhanced photoelectrochemical (PEC) performance due to the improved photo-carrier separation efficiency achieved by substituting some of the sulfur with phosphorus. A PEC biosensor was further developed based on ZnIn<sub>2</sub>S<sub>4-x</sub>P<sub>x</sub>, which exhibits excellent analytical performance for miRNA-155.
