A highly crystalline oriented metal–organic framework thin film with an inorganic pillar†
Abstract
We report a step-by-step route to fabricate the first example of a crystalline oriented metal–organic framework thin film having an anionic inorganic pillar ligand, {Cu(4,4′-bipyridyl)2(SiF6)}. X-ray study and sorption analysis revealed its high crystallinity and porous character.
