Anisotropic Defect-Induced Orbital Reordering Enables Coherent Charge Redistribution and Selective Photocatalytic CO2 Reduction in Metal–Organic Frameworks
Photocatalytic CO2 reduction in metal–organic frameworks (MOFs) is often limited by inefficient charge separation and poorly defined active sites, while the role of crystallographic defect heterogeneity remains unclear. Taking MIL-125-NH2 as a prototypical system, we demonstrate that inequivalent oxygen vacancies dic...
