The nanoporous platinum oxide (H1-ePtO) as a hydrogen ion-selective sensing material is reported. Bare nanoporous platinum oxides exhibit near-Nernstian behavior (e.g., -55 mV/pH in PBS), ignorable hysteresis, a short response time, and high precision, which are remarkably better than those of flat platinum oxides. The electrode potential of a nanoporous platinum oxide responds exclusively to hydrogen ion, which implies its usefulness as a solid-state pH sensor. In the present study, the performance of nanoporous platinum oxide was investigated and compared with that of IrOx in terms of selectivity and the influences of ionic strength, temperature, complexing ligands, and surfactants. H1-ePtO functions well as a pH-sensing solid-state material, and it is viewed as a promising alternative to IrOx. Interference by redox couples was successfully suppressed by covering the H1-ePtO surface with a protective layer, e.g., an electropolymerized polyphenol thin film. Since the nanoporous platinum oxide with such a protective layer is particularly suitable for miniaturization and micropatterning, our findings suggest its usefulness in applications such as solid-state pH sensors embedded in chip-based microanalysis systems.
