Abstract
A structured organic film comprising a plurality of segments and a plurality of linkers arranged as a covalent organic framework, wherein the structured organic film may be a multi-segment thick structured organic film.
Claims30
A structured organic film (SOF) comprising a plurality of segments including at least a first segment type and a plurality of linkers including at least a first linker type arranged as a covalent organic framework (COF), wherein the SOF is a substantially defect-free film, and the first segment type and/or the first linker type comprises at least one atom that is not carbon.
A process for preparing a structured organic film (SOF) comprising:
- (a) preparing a liquid-containing reaction mixture comprising a plurality of molecular building blocks each comprising a segment and a number of functional groups;
- (b) depositing the reaction mixture as a wet film;
- and
- (c) promoting change of the wet film to form a dry SOF.
A process for preparing a structured organic film (SOF) comprising:
- (a) preparing a liquid-containing reaction mixture comprising a plurality of molecular building blocks each comprising a segment and a number of functional groups;
- (b) depositing the reaction mixture as a wet film on a substrate;
- (c) promoting change of the wet film to form a dry SOF;
- and
- (d) removing the dry SOF from the substrate to obtain a single free-standing SOF.
A structured organic film (SOF) comprising a plurality of segments including at least a first segment type and a plurality of linkers including at least a first linker type arranged as a covalent organic framework (COF), wherein the SOF is a substantially defect-free film, and the first segment type and/or the first linker type comprises a hydrogen.
