From n- to p-type material: Effect of Metal Ion on Charge Transport in Metal-Organic Materials

An intriguing new class of two-dimensional (2D) materials based on metal–organic frameworks (MOFs) has recently been developed that displays electrical conductivity, a rarity among these nanoporous materials. The emergence of conducting MOFs raises questions about their fundamental electronic properties, but few studies exist in this regard. Here, we present an integrated theory and experimental investigation to probe the effects of metal substitution on the charge transport properties of M-HITP, where M = Ni or Pt and HITP = 2,3,6,7,10,11-hexaiminotriphenylene. The results show that the identity of the M-HITP majority charge carrier can be changed without intentional introduction of electronically active dopants. We observe that the selection of the metal ion substantially affects charge transport. Using the known structure, Ni-HITP, we synthesized a new amorphous material, a-Pt-HITP, which although amorphous is nevertheless found to be porous upon desolvation. Importantly, this new material exhibits p-type charge transport behavior, unlike Ni-HITP, which displays n-type charge transport. These results demonstrate that both p- and n-type materials can be achieved within the same MOF topology through appropriate choice of the metal ion.

Metal-silicate Partitioning of Re, Ru, Pt, Os, Ti, Nb, and Ta in Reduced Differentiated Planetary Bodies

Siderophile (iron-loving) elements are strongly fractionated during differentiation of planetary bodies into core and mantle [1]. Because the fractionation is controlled by the pressure, temperature, redox conditions, and composition, this group of elements can provide important constraints on the conditions of accretion and core formation in early solar system bodies (planetesimals) and planets (Earth, Mercury, Venus)[2]. At the reducing conditions thought to prevail in the early solar system, Si is known to alloy with FeNi metallic liquids (e.g., [3]) affecting the activity coefficients of siderophile elements in FeNi liquids and thus ultimately their detailed partitioning between metal and silicate melt. The effect of Si can be significant for some siderophile elements, as demonstrated previously by (e.g., [4]: Ni, Co; [5,6]: Ge, As, Sb, Pd, Pt, Au). The effect of Si has not yet been determined for several key groups of siderophile elements including the highly siderophile Re, Ru and Os, and the weakly siderophile Ta, Nb, and Ti. Here, we report new experiments designed to quantify the effect of Si on the partitioning of Re, Pt, Os, Ru, Ti, Ta and Nb between metal and silicate melts. The results will be used to evaluate metal/silicate equilibrium for Nb, Ta, Ti and Nb/Ta ratios in planetary mantles, mantle concentrations of Ru, Re, Pt, Os during accretion, the evolution of Re/Os, Pt/Os ratios in magma oceans, and the role of late veneer in establishing Re and Ru abundances in the terrestrial mantle.

Both Si–Si bond lengths are 2.53 Å. In the second Si+0.80- site, Si+0.80- is bonded in a 9-coordinate geometry to four equivalent Sm3+, three Pt+0.67-, and two equivalent Si+0.80- atoms. In the third Si+0.80- site, Si+0.80- is bonded in a 8-coordinate geometry to four equivalent Sm3+ and four equivalent Pt+0.67- atoms.
