TL;DR: A new thermoelectric material with high Seebeck coefficient and low thermal conductivity is demonstrated based on an electrically conducting metal-organic framework (MOF) using the guest at MOF concept.

TL;DR: In this article, a non-empirically tuned range-separated DFT approach was used to predict both fundamental and excitation gaps in DNA and RNA nucleobases.

TL;DR: This Perspective defines a path to emergent properties based on the Guest@MOF concept and discusses the mechanism of charge transport in TCNQ-infiltrated HKUST-1, the first MOF with electrical conductivity approaching conducting organic polymers.

TL;DR: In this paper, conjugated organic linkers are proposed to form the same one-dimensional infinite metal-oxide secondary building units (SBUs) as the well-known IRMOF-74.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors apply density functional theory (DFT), ab initio molecular dynamics (AIMD), and quantum chemistry techniques to examine excess-electron-induced FEC molecular decomposition mechanisms that lead to FEC modified solid-electrolyte interphase (SEI) films on silicon anodes used in lithium ion batteries.
