dc.description.abstract | In this article, we demonstrate a rapid and facile method for in-situ growth of metal-organic framework (MOF) films on Cu or Zn metal substrates by sonochemical techniques. The substrates were first treated with a strong oxidizing agent to convert the metal to the corresponding metal hydroxide. Ultrasonic irradiation provided the energy to drive the reaction between the metal ion sources and organic ligands. Four MOF films (Cu-BTC, Cu-BDC, ZIF-8 and MOF-5) were successfully fabricated by this approach. The produced films were characterized by scanning electron microscopy and X-ray diffraction analysis. The effects of organic ligand concentration and ultrasonic irradiation time on MOF film synthesis were also systematically investigated. The rapid and facile fabrication method presented in this article could serve a new route to grow MOF films on various gas sensor surfaces. Of the MOF films, ZIF-8 film was tested as a potential methane sensor. | en_US |
