Our current research interest is focused on the design and synthesis of new functional metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) with targeted properties which are determined by a wide range of physical techniques of characterization. The latter includes crystal structure determinations which are correlated with several properties of MOFs (e.g. adsorption properties, conductivity, switchability, etc.). Applications of MOFs, i.e. porous coordination polymers with organic linkers are largely a consequence of their porosity and include areas such as: hydrogen and other gases storage, separations, CO2 capture, molecular recognition, catalysis, charge transport, sensing and adsorption/release of drugs.
At present we focus on MOFs for charge transport (e.g. proton conduction) and sensing (e.g. luminescence- and conductivity-based sensing of selected gaseous and liquid-phase analytes).
Naturally, we are interested in applying mechanochemistry for various stages of materials' preparations.
