研究目的
To present the fabrication of metal–organic framework thin films using programmed layer-by-layer assembly techniques and highlight their potential applications in electronic, photonic, and sensing devices.
研究成果
The LbL assembly technique allows for the fabrication of oriented, highly crystalline MOF thin films (SURMOFs) with controlled thickness and morphology. SURMOFs exhibit significant potential for advanced applications in electronics, photonics, and sensing, with emerging properties related to heteroepitaxy, postsynthetic modification/crosslinking, lithography, and photoswitching offering new avenues for research and development.
研究不足
The technical and application constraints of the experiments include the need for appropriately functionalized substrates for SURMOF growth and the requirement for precise control over the LbL assembly process to achieve desired film properties. Potential areas for optimization include expanding the range of substrates and MOF types that can be used with the LbL technique.
1：Experimental Design and Method Selection:
The layer-by-layer (LbL) assembly technique for the growth of surface-mounted metal–organic frameworks (SURMOFs) on a self-assembled monolayer (SAM)-functionalized substrate. The approach involves repeated cycles of immersion of the surface-functionalized substrate into solutions of the inorganic metal ion or metal–cluster connectors and solutions of the polydentate organic ligand. Between the steps, the substrate is rinsed with pure solvent to remove uncoordinated metal connectors or organic linkers.
2：Sample Selection and Data Sources:
Substrates include gold, silver, silicon, silicon oxide, standard glass, quartz, alumina, titanium, titanium oxide, calcium fluoride, indium tin oxide, and fluorine-doped tin oxide.
3：List of Experimental Equipment and Materials:
Solutions of metal connectors and organic linkers, pure solvent for rinsing, SAM-functionalized substrates.
4：Experimental Procedures and Operational Workflow:
Sequential immersion of the substrate into metal connector and organic linker solutions, with rinsing steps in between, repeated for multiple cycles.
5：Data Analysis Methods:
Characterization of SURMOFs using standard X-ray diffraction (XRD) techniques to confirm crystallinity and orientation.
