Design and synthesis of multi-dimensional metal-organic frameworks are fascinating because MOFs possess intriguing structures and unique properties and exhibit potential applications in photocatalysis. In the present study, ...

The metal-organic framework Cu-2,3,6,7,10,11-hexahydroxytriphenylene (Cu3hhtp2-MOF), a copper-based graphene-like framework, is one of the few MOFs featuring inherent electrical conductivity. Here, we investigate the ...

Azobenzene guest molecules in the metal-organic framework structure HKUST-1 show reversible photochemical switching and, in addition, alignment phenomena. Since the host system is isotropic, the orientation of the guest ...

Using density functional calculations, we show that the adsorption of ferrocene dithiol on the Ag(111) surface is remarkably flexible, i.e., a large number of different configurations have binding energies that differ by ...
