Abstract
Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs), formed by the combination of both inorganic and organic components, have attracted special attention for their tunable porous structures, chemical and functional diversities, and enormous applications in gas storage, catalysis, sensing, etc. Recently, electronic applications of MOFs like electrocatalysis, supercapacitors, batteries, electrochemical sensing, etc., have become a major research topic in MOF chemistry. However, the low electrical conductivity of most MOFs represents a major handicap in the development of these emerging applications. To overcome these limitations, different strategies have been developed to enhance electrical conductivity of MOFs for their implementation in electronic devices. In this review, we outline all these strategies employed to increase the electronic conduction in both intrinsically (framework-modulated) and extrinsically (guests-modulated) conducting MOFs.
