Crystalline coordination polymers with high electrical conductivities and charge carrier mobilities might open new opportunities for electronic devices. However, current solvent-based synthesis methods hinder compatibility microfabrication standards. Here, we describe a solvent-free chemical vapor deposition method to prepare high-quality films of the two-dimensional conjugated polymer Cu-BHT (BHT = benzenehexanothiolate). This approach involves conversion metal oxide precursor into...
Switchable metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) change their structure in time and selectively open pores adsorbing guest molecules, leading to highly selective separation, pressure amplification, sensing, actuation applications.
