Coordination chemistry offers excellent opportunities for the rational design of crystalline materials. Properties such as porosity, conductivity, and thermal transport can be controlled by judicious choice of ligand and metal. However, incorporating these materials into useful, application-ready configurations has remained challenging due to the commonly lacking processability of coordination materials. We are a new laboratory at SUNY Albany studying methods to synthesize and modify coordination materials to render them amenable to solution-processing methods. In this presentation, I describe some of the motivating factors behind our research and show our preliminary results on the design and function of new functional coordination materials including metallocene polymers, 2D layered hybrid semiconductors, and metal-organic frameworks.
