- Abstract
- Energy storage stands at the core of the global transition toward sustainable energy systems. As the demand for renewable sources continues to grow, developing next-generation storage technologies has become both a scientific and strategic priority. In parallel, the scarcity of certain metals calls for hybrid materials that can reduce reliance on limited mined resources. Among emerging candidates, metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) offer a versatile platform to explore structure-property relationships by combining organic and inorganic components. Within this class, electrically conductive MOFs represent an especially promising yet underexplored subclass, capable of integrating permanent porosity with electrical conductivity for applications in electronics, sensing, and energy storage. This thesis focuses on the design, synthesis, characterization, and integration of electrically conductive MOFs, aiming to expand their structural diversity for emerging electronic applications. After conducting a comprehensive literature review on charge transport mechanisms in catecholate MOFs and associated challenges, the work progresses along two main directions: (i) the development of new two-dimensional, non-π-stacked bimetallic frameworks based on redox-active phendione ligands, and (ii) the electrochemical deposition of conductive MOF nanostructures for device integration.
