Flexible porous frameworks are at the forefront of materials research. A unique feature is
their ability to open and close their pores in an adaptive manner induced by chemical and …

The environment sustenance and preservation of global climate are known as the crucial
issues of the world today. Currently, the crisis of global warming due to CO 2 emission has …

The discovery of a method to separate isotopologues, molecular entities that differ in only
isotopic composition, is fundamentally and technologically essential but remains …

Chiral luminescent lanthanide–organic cages have many potential applications in
enantioselective recognition, sensing, and asymmetric catalysis. However, due to the …

In this Minireview, we discuss the fundamental chemistry of soft porous crystals (SPCs) by
characterizing their common structural features and the resulting structural softness and …

Iron‐series (Fe, Co, and Ni) containing metal–organic frameworks (MOFs) have gained
great concern in supercapacitors (SCs) because of their tailorable architectures, multiple …

Design of the gas-diffusion process in a porous material is challenging because a
contracted pore aperture is a prerequisite, whereas the channel traffic of guest molecules is …

Negative thermal expansion (NTE), referring to the lattice contraction upon heating, has
been an attractive topic of solid-state chemistry and functional materials. The response of a …

Owing to their three dimensionality and high porosity, metal-organic frameworks (MOFs)
have attracted the attention of scientists especially chemists and material engineers. The …

Small molecules and ions pass through molecular separation membranes with channels at
the nanometer scale. These nanochannel membranes are playing an increasingly important …
