Direct imaging of correlated defect nanodomains in a metal-organic framework (2020)
Journal Article
Johnstone, D. N., Firth, F. C., Grey, C. P., Midgley, P. A., Cliffe, M. J., & Collins, S. M. (2020). Direct imaging of correlated defect nanodomains in a metal-organic framework. Journal of the American Chemical Society, 142(30), 13081–13089. https://doi.org/10.1021/jacs.0c04468

Defect engineering can enhance key properties of metal-organic frameworks (MOFs). Tailoring the distribution of defects, for example in correlated nanodomains, requires characterization across length scales. However, a critical na-noscale characteriz...
