A review on the milestones in MOF research and the pathway towards real-world applications.

Today, our research on lateral flow testing was picked up by several news sites!

Vapor-phase fabrication of the metal-organic framework ZIF-8 through the conversion of precursors prepared by physical, atomic, and molecular layer deposition.

Alex was awarded his PhD after successfully completing the public defense of his thesis entitled "Metal-organic frameworks by vapor deposition processes". His PhD is a joint degree from the KU Leuven (PhD in Bioscience Engineering) and the VUB, Vrije Universiteit Brussel (Doctor of Engineering Sciences, with the highest distinction).

cMACS started off the year with launching the new cMACS logo!

For some MOFs polymorphs can form a challenge on the synthesis outcome. In this work, we demonstrate a template-mediated MOF-CVD method controlling polymorphism.

A beautiful illustration of our research on nanoscale lithography of metal-organic frameworks made the cover of the January 2021 issue of Nature Materials.

Proud to be one of the founding members of the new KULeuven institute LIMNI, Leuven Institute for Micro- and Nanoscale Integration.

Alex is awarded the 2020 Park Atomic Force Microscopy (AFM) Scholarship in recognition of excellence in nanoscience research, with AFM as one of the main techniques.

We report the solvent-free synthesis of ultramicroporous α-magnesium formate (α-MgFm), resulting in high-quality, pinhole-free films.
