Metal-Organic Frameworks (MOFs) are a new class of materials that in the last decade have seen a paramount growth and are expected to have huge impact on the development of next-generation technologies. They consist of inorganic nodes (i.e. a metal ion or a cluster) connected through organic linkers to form a porous 3D framework. The combination of different nodes and linkers makes MOFs very versatile materials with interesting and promising applications in many fields, including: gas adsorption, catalysis, drug delivery, nonlinear optics.
