Out in @J_A_C_S we show that A-site substitution in heterometallic Ti2M2 clusters induces cluster strain in MOFs, lowering symmetry and enhancing reactivity. Strain boosts LMCT efficiency, Ti(III) photogeneration, and enables superior CO2 methanation rates

Our new @J_A_C_S with phenomenal postdoc @esvenssongrape (he's on the job market!) -- Embrace it, or beware: concerted ion-electron motion and solvent majorly impact conductivity, especially in MOFs and other porous electrodes @uoregon @uoCHandBIC pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/jac…

Turn-On Conductivity with Proton-Coupled Electron Transport in Metal–Organic Frameworks

Abstract. Proton-coupled electron transfer (PCET) has been studied for decades in the context of molecular reactivity, but its impact on long-range electro

Check out @brozeklab foray into 2D materials: Exfoliated MOF-like sheets exhibit interlayer excitons and unusually strong interlayer binding strengths. Great collaboration with @chhendon, Johnson, and @CozzolinoChem @UOregonNews @UO_Research @uoCHandBIC onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/…

Tunable Interlayer Interactions in Exfoliated 2D van der Waals Framework Fe(SCN)2(Pyrazine)2

Partial oxidation of 2D van der Waals frameworks causes their aggregation in solution, while remaining colloidally stable. Strong inter-sheet non-covalent interactions give rise to intense, broad-b...
