The students will have a solid training in all aspects of crystallography. Generally, 1-3 steps organic synthesis of ligands/monomers are required followed by characterization with NMR, Mass, IR, EA, UV-Vis etc. MOFs/COFs are generally synthesized by hydro(solvothermal) techniques followed by characterization with single crystal (SC-XRD), powder X-ray diffraction (PXRD), TGA and SS-NMR. Surface area, porosity and gas sorption measurements are performed with a volumetric gas sorption analyzer. The prot
