Abstract Reversible structural transformations of porous coordination frameworks in response to external stimuli such as light, electrical potential, guest inclusion or pressure, amongst others, have been the subject intense interest for applications sensing, switching and molecular separations. Here we report a framework based on an electroactive tetrathiafulvalene exhibiting reversible single crystal-to-single crystal double [2 + 2] photocyclisation, leading profound differences...
Abstract Luminescent metal‐organic frameworks (LMOFs) are promising materials for nanophotonic applications due to their tuneable structure and programmability. Yet, the 3D nature of LMOFs creates challenges stability, optical transparency, device integration. Metal‐organic nanosheets (MONs) potentially overcome these limitations by combining benefits (MOFs) with an atomically thin morphology large planar dimensions. Herein, bottom‐up synthesis few‐layer ZIF‐7‐III MONs via facile low‐energy...
The Kamlet-Taft solvent parameters of solvate ionic liquids (SILs) prepared from lithium salts with glyme and glycol ligands are determined. dipolarity/polarisibilities (π*) high, similar to those found in conventional liquids. H-bond basicities (β) depend strongly on the anion. acidities (α) high both SILs, indicating that is acting as a donor site. "Poor" SILs have glyme-rich salt-rich regions. In these π* β values almost identical parent or glycol, α determined by salt alone.
Organic-based phosphors are promising alternatives to rare-earth metal based white light-emitting diodes (LEDs). Integrating into organic LED systems, however, is constrained by limited long-term chemical- and photo-stability, particularly for blue emitters, along with fabricability. Coumarins common emitters red-green-blue (RGB) or blue-yellow light emission (WLE) systems but susceptible photodimerization decay, both supressing fluorescence. This work employs a guest@host architecture...
Luminescent metal–organic frameworks exhibit great potential as materials for nanophotonic applications because of their programmable properties and tunable structures. In particular, luminescent guests (LG) can be hosted by due to porosity guest confinement capacity, forming LG@MOF composite systems. However, such guest–host systems are mainly produced loose powders, preventing widespread use in practical devices technological that require implementation a stable continuum solid. this...
Fabrication of metal-organic framework (MOF) thin films is an ongoing challenge to achieve effective device integration. Inkjet printing has been employed print various luminescent films. Luminescent nanosheets (LMONs), nanometer-thin particles MOF materials with comparatively large micrometer lateral dimensions, provide ideal morphology that offers enhancements over analogous MOFs in properties such as intensity and photoluminescent quantum yield. The also better suited the formation This...
