Multifunctional rare-earth materials à la carte: A novel synthesis approach
Researchers from various Spanish institutes, including the ICN2, have developed a novel synthesis technique for the generation of multi-metallic rare earth metal-organic frameworks (MTV RE MOFs). The pioneering approach used by the authors of this study, published in ‘Advanced Functional Materials’ and featured on its back cover, opens pathways for tailoring combinations of these ions to design materials with specific and diverse applications.
