Article Abstract
Partial crystallization within a glass matrix to form microcrystalline domains offers a pathway to glass-ceramic materials with properties distinct from those of both the parent glass and crystalline phases. This concept has been limited to inorganic glasses. Here, we introduce metal-organic crystallized glasses (MOCGs), prepared by controlling the crystallization process within metal-organic framework (MOF) glasses, and explore their properties. By adjusting the annealing temperature and duration above the glass transition temperature (), we control the crystallinity and crystallite size in 2D Cd(HPO)(1,2,4-triazole)-based MOCGs, enabling modulation of their micromechanical properties, dielectric constants, and proton conductivities. The MOCG with a 15% relative crystallinity exhibits a dielectric constant of 3.3 × 10 at 100 kHz, an order of magnitude higher than that of both the parent glass and crystalline phases across 30-100 °C. We further extend this concept to a mixed-metal MOF glass system, where solid solutions occur through the incorporation of Cd and Mn ions from the amorphous matrix into crystallizing lattices upon annealing.

Abnormal levels of trypsin in the human body can lead to various diseases, yet conventional detection methods often lack operational simplicity and real-time readout capabilities. This work presents a state-of-the-art metal organic framework (MOF) nanozyme-integrated liquid crystal (LC) sensor (MHN-LC sensor) and demonstrates the detection of trypsin as a proof of the concept. By rational engineering of the MOF-808 framework with Al and l-histidine coordination, a novel MOF nanozyme (MHis-NE) exhibiting exceptional acetylcholinesterase (AChE)-mimetic activity is successfully prepared.

Isostructural metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) built from oxidiacetate, oda, [LaCo(oda)(HO)]·14HO (), [PrCo(oda)(HO)]·14HO (), and [LaNi(oda)(HO)]·14HO () were synthesized and characterized to investigate their proton conduction properties. The presence of a hydrogen-bonding network formed by guest water molecules within the MOF channels was evidenced through crystallographic analysis and computational simulations. Powder conductivity measurements revealed a Grotthuss-type proton transport mechanism with consistent activation energies across all three compounds, but grain boundary effects limited overall performance.

Porous metal-organic polyhedra (MOPs) have strong covalent and coordinate bonds that define the intrinsic pore of the cage. The intermolecular interactions between cages tend to be weaker, such that they rearrange during the solvent exchange process preceding gas sorption measurements. The reduction in crystal size that this often causes limits the availability of structural data that could enable understanding of observed gas uptake.

The direct deposition of piezoelectric ceramic thin films onto metal foils has become a significant challenge due to the increasing demand for embedded decoupling capacitors, nanogenerators, and flexible piezo-sensors. However, traditional thermal sintering (TS) methods present several issues for metal foils, including alterations in mechanical properties, the formation of wrinkles, and the need for precise control over the sintering atmosphere to prevent oxidation. In this study, we successfully crystallized BaTiO on a Ni foil under atmospheric conditions, mitigating thermal damage to the foil through a hybrid-solution-incorporated photoassisted chemical solution deposition (HS-PCSD) method.
