Electrical semiconduction modulated by light in a cobalt and naphthalene diimide metal-organic framework

Photoactive and semiconducting metal-organic frameworks are desirable for electrical and photoelectrical devices, but remain rare. Here Demets and co-workers design a naphthalene diimide and cobalt based MOF with anisotropic electrical semiconductivity and a high responsivity of 2.5 × 105 A W−1....
