Observation of Interpenetrated Topology Isomerism for Covalent Organic Frameworks with Atom-resolution Single Crystal Structures

November 9, 2023
Author(s)
Baoqiu Yu, Wenliang Li, Jing-Hong Li, Rui-Biao Lin, Hailong Wang, Xu Ding, Yucheng Jin, Xiya Yang, Hui Wu, Wei Zhou, Jingping Zhang, Jianzhuang Jiang
Rational control and understanding of isomerism are of significance but still remain a great challenge in reticular frameworks in particular for covalent organic frameworks (COFs) due to the complicated synthesis and energy factors. Herein, reaction of 3,3

Thermal Polymorphism in CsCB11H12

March 1, 2023
Author(s)
Radovan Cerny, Matteo Brighi, Hui Wu, Wei Zhou, Mirjana Dimitrievska, Fabrizio Murgia, Valerio Gulino, Petra de Jongh, Benjamin Trump, Terrence J. Udovic
Thermal polymorphism in the alkali-metal salts incorporating the icosohedral monocarba-hydridoborate anion, CB11H12, results in intriguing dynamical properties leading to superionic conductivity for the lightest alkali-metal analogues, LiCB11H12 and

Characterizing the ZrBe 2 H x Phase Diagram via Neutron Scattering Methods

January 1, 2023

Hui Wu, Wei Zhou, Terrence J. Udovic, Jr. Bowman, Bjorn C. Hauback
It is well-known that ZrBe 2H 1.5 exists as a single-phase hydride with hexagonal P6/mmm symmetry that undergoes some type of hydrogen sublattice ordering below 200 K (235-250 K for ZrBe 2D 1.5&). Both neutron powder diffraction and neutron vibrational

Probing the non-classical dihydrogen ligand in OsClH3(PPh3)3 using X-ray and neutron diffraction, inelastic neutron scattering, and theoretical calculations

February 15, 2022
Author(s)
Carly Carter, Ryan Klein, Wei Zhou, Terrence J. Udovic, Craig Brown, Ting-Bin Wen, Thomas Cundari, Muhammed Yousufuddin
: Dihydrogen ligation to metal centers results in a wide range of metal-hydrogen interactions. Compounds containing non-classical dihydrogen ligands in which the H–H contacts are significantly longer than the 0.74 Å distance found in solid H2 are

Effects of Intervalence Charge Transfer Interaction between p-Stacked Mixed Valent Tetrathiafulvalene Ligands on the Electrical Conductivity of 3D Metal-Organic Frameworks

October 20, 2021
Author(s)
Shiyu Zhang, Dillip K. Panda, Ashok Yadav, Wei Zhou, Sourav Saha
Achieving molecular-level understanding of how the structures and compositions of metal–organic frameworks (MOFs) influence their charge carrier concentration and charge transport mechanism—the key parameters that dictate their electronic band gaps and

Developing Ideal Metalorganic Hydrides for Hydrogen Storage: From Theoretical Prediction to Rational Fabrication

September 6, 2021
Author(s)
Zijun Jing, Qinqin Yuan, Yang Yu, Xiangtao Kong, Khai C. Tan, Jintao Wang, Qijun Pei, Xue-Bin Wang, Wei Zhou, Hui Wu, Anan Wu, Teng He, Ping Chen
Materials for hydrogen storage have been extensively explored for a few decades. Thousands of hydrogen storage materials have been synthesized and tested, however, sparse systems could meet the practical requirements. Metalorganic hydrides discovered

Neutron Scattering Investigations of the Global and Local Structures of Ammine Yttrium Borohydrides

July 22, 2021
Author(s)
Jakob Grinderslev, Mikael S. Andersson, Benjamin Trump, Wei Zhou, Terrence J. Udovic, Maths Karlsson, Torben Jensen
Complex metal hydrides are a fascinating and continuously expanding class of materials with many properties relevant for solid-state hydrogen and ammonia storage and solid state electrolytes. The crystal structures are often investigated using powder X-ray

Polymorphism of Calcium Decahydrido-closo-decaborate and Characterization of Its Hydrates

July 12, 2021
Author(s)
Mathias Jorgensen, Wei Zhou, Hui Wu, Terrence J. Udovic, Mark Paskevicius, Radovan Cerny, Torben R. Jensen
Metal closo-borates and their derivatives have shown promise in several fields of application from cancer therapy to solid-state electrolytes partly owing to their stability in aqueous solutions and high thermal stability. We report the synthesis and

A Rod-Packing Hydrogen-Bonded Organic Framework with Suitable Pore Confinement for Benchmark Ethane/Ethylene Separation

April 26, 2021
