Metal-organic frameworks can store huge amounts of gas in a tiny space—enabling advances that could help humans fight climate change and tackle other challenges ...

Three scientists have been awarded the 2025 Nobel prize in chemistry for discovering a new form of molecular architecture: crystals that contain large cavities.

The metal-organic frameworks discovered by the three scientists are helping to revolutionise green technology and many other areas.

APF-80, enables the crystalline sponge method to capture and analyze nucleophilic compounds. Alkaloids, a diverse group of biologically active compounds, usually damage MOF crystals and resist study.

Scientists at TU Wien (Vienna) report that an exotic quantum phenomenon appears under conditions where it would not normally be expected. Nature follows many rhythms: the Earth’s orbit around the sun ...

Redefining the repeating pattern in photonic crystals creates tightly confined pathways for light while preserving symmetry, offering a simple route to ultracompact and low loss light circuits.
