2 Metal-organic framework properties

Muhammad Pervaiz
Abstract
Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) are crystalline materials with metal ions which are connected to organic ligands. MOF’s belongs to a large family of nanoporous materials. These are the organic crystalline compounds which are formed by a group of atoms of metal which are connected together by an organic linker in 3D structure. MOFs can generate luminescence in variety of ways which may include MLCT, LMCT, LLCT, MMCT, and so in. Here, M means metal, L means ligand, and CT means charge transfer. There comes new class of materials by connecting the crystalline structures of MOFs and produce an order in which they conduct electricity and produce any materials such as electrical sensors and many more. To produce MOFs which are good conductors of electricity, many strategies are formed. MOFs are well known materials because of their porosity and surface area. Essential and appropriate materials which link the MOFs with each other and the nodes of metal are used to tune the arrangements and pore size of the MOFs. Moreover, scalability and process ability are rosy properties of MOFs.
