Abstract

The metal–organic frameworks (MOFs) or porous coordination polymers (PCPs) are a class of porous, crystalline material with numerous possibilities of real-world applications including storage, separation, catalysis, sensing etc. The possibility of intrinsic crystallinity and virtually infinite metal/metal-oxo node and organic linker combination make it a perfect material for photophysical studies. In the last decade, luminescent MOFs have emerged as an excellent modular material for various optical applications, and here, we have discussed about its design strategies. In this review, with relevant examples we have highlighted the rational design approach, possible applications (light emitting diodes, sensing) and future directions in luminescent MOFs.

发光金属有机框架及其潜在应用

摘要

金属有机骨架（MOF）或多孔配位聚合物（PCP）是一类多孔晶体材料，在现实世界中具有许多应用可能性，包括存储，分离，催化，传感等。固有结晶的可能性和几乎无限的金属/金属-氧代节点和有机连接基的组合​​使其成为光物理研究的理想材料。在过去的十年中，发光MOF已成为各种光学应用的出色模块化材料，在这里，我们讨论了其设计策略。在这篇综述中，我们通过相关示例重点介绍了发光MOF的合理设计方法，可能的应用（发光二极管，传感）和未来方向。
