Project description

The goal of this joint project proposal of the EMR and COMOC research teams of Ghent University is to study electronic and structural changes occurring in metal organic frameworks. The focus lies on understanding the mechanisms of catalysis and transformations in the flexibility of these materials. Electron magnetic resonance techniques will be used as primary spectroscopic tools.
