Our research group focuses on functional microporous materials, involving several different scientific fields, such as coordination chemistry, supramolecular chemistry and green chemistry. By using a ˇ°bottom-upˇ± approach, we are going to synthesize functional molecules and then incorporate them into functional materials by self-assembly, and control the properties of the resulting materials by tuning the simple building blocks. Our main interests focus on three different topics: covalent-organic frameworks, metal-organic frameworks and organic molecular cage.

 Covalent organic frameworks (COFs)

ˇˇ

Covalent organic frameworks (COFs) are a class of crystalline porous materials composed of light-weight elements and have found applications in gas storage, catalysis, and optoelectronic device. Our interest is designing COFs with novel structures and investigating their applications in electronic device to energy storage. For more details, please see ˇ°Publicationsˇ±.

 Metal¨Corganic frameworks (MOFs)

ˇˇ

Metal¨Corganic frameworks (MOFs) represent a novel class of hybrid nanoporous solids with structural periodicity and diversity and have gained considerable attention over the past two decades, due to their potential applications in many areas. Our interest lies in designing, synthesizing and functionalizing novel Zr-MOFs with specific applications. For more details, please see ˇ°Publicationsˇ±.

 Organic molecular cages (OMCs)

ˇˇ

Organic molecular cages (OMCs) have been recently at the focus of attention as examples of molecular container compounds with promising applications in host-guest chemistry, and specifically for gas sorption and separation. We are interested in the incorporation of functional groups into OMCs and how to efficiently construct OMCs. For more details, please see ˇ°Publicationsˇ±.

Welcome to our group meeting every friday evening in Room west-118 !
