Graphene oxide nanoribbons greatly enhance extracellular electron transfer in bio-electrochemical systems

Bridging microbes and electrode to facilitate the extracellular electron transfer (EET) is crucial for bio-electrochemical systems (BESs). Here, a significant enhancement of the EET process was achieved by biomimetically fabricating a network structure of graphene oxide nanoribbons (GONRs) on the electrode. This strategy is universal to enhance the adaptability of GONRs at the bio-nano interface to develop new bioelectronic devices.
