Check out our new preprint on ion diffusion and (photo)redox conductivity in a COF by @bbrath.bsky.social and Bettina! doi.org/10.26434/che... We report the first observation of reversible switching from an insulating to semiconducting regime in COF triggered by both electrical potential and light.

Finally for MOFs! Congratulations to the laureates(Susumu Kitagawa, Richard Robson, Omar M. Yaghi). (always knew these three should get the prize together) 🎊 A picture from Ammersee, Munich 2024. (would have been the best to have a picture with all of them together) #NobelPrize #Chemistry #MOFs

I had the opportunity to attend #EuroMOF2025 in Crete 🇬🇷 with @lotschgroup.bsky.social @mpifkf.bsky.social and deliver a talk on our works on optoionic charge storage and redox hopping in COFs. Thanks to the organisers for putting together a great event with fascinating talks/posters.

My tutorial review on single crystal diffraction analysis is now online @crystengcomm.rsc.org! Students, supervisors, and reviewers: Please consider this thought-provoking read to discover many facets of the crystallographic practice that are often overlooked or misunderstood 💎 #crystallography

Just out in Nature Communications! @natcomms.nature.com We dive into the quasiperiodicity of moiré 2D MOFs😉🔬 Grateful to Prof. W.Choe and our team, and to collaborators Prof. S.S. Park and Prof. J.Kim for their contributions. Read the paper here👉 doi.org/10.1038/s41467-025-62247-2

Look at our first group photo in 2025! We celebrated Bettina's Leibniz award together and enjoyed the beautiful weather of early summer with BBQ ☀️🌲 Here’s to more breakthroughs, sunshine, and sizzling science this year!

PhD/Postdoc position in my group is open now 🚀 Are you interested in catalysis within MOFs/COFs? Want a brand-new environment? Apply or ask me anything by June 27, 2025! Repost appreciated 🤝 www.ipoc.uni-stuttgart.de/pcmc/positio...

Very exciting to see our "Retrospective Review on Reticular Materials" online, packing lots of interesting stats to understand how far the field has come, and to envision its even brighter future! #MOFs #COFs privileged to have worked with such a fantastic team 🌟

✨Our work on optoionic charge storage in COF, where we provide insights into decoupled solar energy conversion and storage is now published in JACS.✨ @lotschgroup.bsky.social @mpifkf.bsky.social Open access paper: doi.org/10.1021/jacs... #solar #energy #battery #COFs
