In the past decades, metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) have attracted considerable interest not only for their intrinsic aesthetic appeal but also their wide potential applications. The most distinctive feature of MOFs is their flexibility, which makes them exhibit a much larger magnitude of responses toward external stimuli than traditional materials. In addition, the stimuli usually have a huge impact on the MOFs' performances. A fundamental understanding of the structure evolution process under external stimuli is critical to reveal the structure-property relationships in MOFs. In this feature article, we tried to summarize how the crystal structure changes toward external stimuli, such as guest insertion, temperature, pressure, electric field, and light.
在过去几十年里，金属有机框架材料（MOFs）不仅因其内在的美学吸引力，还因其广泛的潜在应用而引起了相当大的关注。MOFs最显著的特点是其灵活性，这使得它们对外界刺激的响应程度比传统材料大得多。此外，这些刺激通常会对MOFs的性能产生巨大影响。深入了解外部刺激下的结构演变过程对于揭示MOFs中的结构-性能关系至关重要。在这篇专题文章中，我们试图总结晶体结构如何响应诸如客体插入、温度、压力、电场和光等外部刺激而发生变化。
