Acoustomicrofluidic assembly of oriented and simultaneously activated metal–organic frameworks

The growth of oriented crystalline metal–organic frameworks is desirable to exploit their surface area and porosity, but has proven difficult. Here the authors fabricate highly-oriented and simultaneously activated free-standing MOFs by an acoustically driven microcentrifugation platform.
