The mass-utilization of fossil resources has led to a dramatic increase in carbon dioxide (CO2) production, most of which is released directly into the Earth's atmosphere, resulting in global warming. Efforts to contain CO2 emissions and to capture, store ...
Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) are a class of porous materials prepared by the self-assembly of metal ions or clusters with organic ligands. The unique characteristics of MOFs, including structural tunability, high surface areas, low densities and tailore ...
In this thesis, Ni catalysts derived from perovskite-type metal oxides (PMO, general formula ABO3, A=lanthanide or earth alkaline element, B=transition metal) are investigated as a potential class of materials, which are able to overcome thechallenges of c ...
The structure of a biological system defines its function. Therefore, nature has developed sophisticated systems that catalyze chemical reactions that are vital for life on earth. For instance, the photosynthesis is a biological process that is partially r ...
We present the in silico design of a MOF-74 analogue, hereon known as M-2(DHFUMA) [M = Mg, Fe, Co, Ni, Zn], with enhanced small-molecule adsorption properties over the original M-2(DOBDC) series. Constructed from 2,3-dihydroxyfumarate (DHFUMA), an aliphati ...
Small-molecule binding in metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) can be accurately studied both experimentally and computationally, provided the proper tools are employed. Herein, we compare and contrast properties associated with guest binding by means of densit ...
We apply first-principles approaches with Hubbard U corrections for calculation of small molecule binding energetics to open-shell transition metal atoms in metal-organic frameworks (MOFs). Using density functional theory with van derWaals dispersion-corre ...
We have investigated the potential of metal-organic frameworks for immobilising single atoms of transition metals using a model system of Pd supported on NH2-MIL-101(Cr). Our transmission electron microscopy and in situ Raman spectroscopy results give evid ...
This thesis presents a study of the use of two-dimensional metal-organic systems as templates for the organization of metal atoms and clusters on surfaces. We start with a systematic characterization of the metal-organic porous networks formed on Cu(111) b ...
The incorporation of N,N'-dimethylethylenediamine into an expanded MOF-74 framework has yielded a material (mmen-Mg-2(dobpdc)) exhibiting "step-shaped" CO, adsorption isotherms. The coordination of mmen at the Mg open metal center is essential for the uniq ...
