Sensors Based on Conductive Metal–Organic Frameworks

Abstract

Conductive metal–organic frameworks (C-MOFs), also known as smart intrinsically porous extended materials, have attracted enormous attention in the research community. C-MOFs have attracted enormous attention from the research community due to their intrinsic conductivity, numerous active sites, and chemical and thermal stability, making them useful in a wide range of applications, including sensors. C-MOF-based sensors mainly fall into two categories: chemiresistive sensors and electrochemical sensors. This chapter describes C-MOFs, their synthesis procedure, and their use as active materials for developing and designing sensors.
