New approach for tuning current flow in 2D MOF nanosheets shows promise for advanced electronics

Researchers led by Prof. Cunlan Guo at Wuhan University have pioneered a new approach to control the electrical properties of two-dimensional (2D) metal-organic frameworks (MOFs), specifically porphyrinic 2D MOF nanosheets, by constructing molecular heterojunctions that exhibit tunable rectification behaviors. Their findings could greatly impact the development of future functional electronic devices.
