As a highly tunable middle ground between heterogeneous and homogeneous species, MOFs have the potential to suit a wide variety of applications, many of which require conductive materials. The continued development of conductive MOFs has provided an ever-growing library of materials with both intrinsic and guest-promoted conductivity, and factors which limit or enhance conductivity in MOFs have become more apparent. In this Outlook, the factors which are believed to influence the future of MOF conductivity most heavily are highlighted along with proposed methods of further developing these fields. Fundamental studies derived from these methods may provide pathways to raise conductivity across a wide range of MOF structures.Pages 445-4539 page(s)application/pdfenCreative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivatives 4.0 InternationalPhysical SciencesChemistry, MultidisciplinaryChemistry03 Chemical SciencesArticle - Refereed2021-08-24https://doi.org/10.1021/acscentsci.1c0004773Morris, Amanda [0000-0002-3512-0366]33791427 (pubmed)2374-7951
