Metal–organic frameworks in focus: a curated collection from the Beilstein Journal of Nanotechnology
In light of the 2025 Nobel Prize in Chemistry awarded to Susumu Kitagawa, Richard Robson and Omar M. Yaghi for their pioneering work in metal–organic frameworks (MOFs), which are crystalline, highly porous architectures capable of gas capture, chemical conversion, water harvesting among other functions, this collection brings together top-cited high-quality published articles from the Beilstein Journal of Nanotechnology (considering all publication years) that explore the breadth and depth of MOF science. Enjoy the read!
