[New article available] First Author Interview: Mr Shun Tokuda
Weak forces bind molecules to build rigid nanoporous frameworks
Mr Shun Tokuda was a master’s student in the Furukawa Lab, studying the design and synthesis of novel porous materials based on metal-organic polyhedron (MOP) molecules. He focused on the intermolecular interactions among MOP molecules and discovered that strong van der Waals interactions between them can drive the assembly of a new type of porous framework material.
