Cheng-Yan's work reported the systematic study on the stability of a Zr-based MOF, MOF-808, in 18 buffer/unbuffered aqueous solutions, guiding the rational selection of buffer/electrolyte for Zr-MOFs:

In our collaborative work led by Cheng-Liang Liu's group at NTU, Taiwan, 2D Zr-MOF molecular sheets were used to immobilize N719 (old friend of DSSC), and the sensitized MOF can act as additive to boost photothermoelectric performance! It is the first study reporting the use of MOF in photothermoelectric application, and the work is just published in ACS Nano!
