­Background Removal of carbon dioxide (CO2) from the atmosphere by direct air capture (DAC) can be accomplished using two chief approaches, liquid and solid. Liquid systems pass air through chemical solutions containing basic ions (e.g., hydroxide ions or bicarbonate ions), heat the resulting mixture to release the captured CO2, and then reuse the...

Background Two dimensional (2D) polymers are relatively new types of organic materials with remarkable electronic and structural properties, making them attractive for a variety of applications. Unlike traditional polymers, monomer building units are arranged in a sheet-like manner to form 2D networks of 2D polymeric materials. This opens a wide range...

Two-Dimensional Coordination Polymers for Enhanced Tunability of Two-Dimensional Materials Background Two-dimensional (2D) materials, such as graphene or MoS2, have recently attracted a great deal of attention due to their unique physical and chemical properties. In particular, 2D materials have been explored for applications in energy conversion,...
