While metallic conductivity in MOFs has been predicted theoretically, it has so far only been put into practice in exceptional cases – and never before in thin-film form required for technical ...

MOFs usually exhibit only low electrical conductivity, caused by electron hopping, the frequency of which decreases sharply during cooling (red curve). In special, highly ordered MOFs, however, true ...

An international research team has synthesized a multilayered two-dimensional polyaniline (2DPANI) crystal, achieving unique metallic out-of-plane charge transport and high conductivity. This study ...

(Nanowerk News) An international research team, including scientists from the TUD Dresden University of Technology, has developed a breakthrough two-dimensional conducting polymer - a special, ordered ...

Using molecular design to engender high conductivity in undoped amorphous materials would enable tunable and robust conductivity in many applications, but there are no intrinsically conducting organic ...

For the first time, researchers have reported a 3D metal-organic framework (MOF) that can conduct both electrons and protons (J. Am. Chem. Soc. 2024, DOI: 10.1021/jacs.4c13792). Materials mixing ...

Half-metallic ferromagnetic films exhibit complete spin polarisation at the Fermi level, combining metallic conduction for one spin channel with insulating behaviour for the opposite spin. This unique ...

It is seen the semi-hydrogenation of acetylene and propylene hydroformylation can occur smoothly on Pd/Al and Rh/Al systems, respectively with Pd or Rh atoms completely buried in the subsurface of Al ...

AI-guided synthesis yields a highly conductive MOF thin film, overcoming conductivity limits and unlocking new potential in electronics and energy storage. (Nanowerk News) Metal-organic frameworks ...
