Abstract

Until now, it has been a challenge to prepare lanthanide metal-organic framework films on traditional substrates, like zinc plate, indium oxide (ITO), and fluorine-doped tin oxide (FTO) glasses in a rapid and facile method. In this paper, continuous and dense Ln-BTC MOFs films on unmodified low-cost substrates have been rapidly and easily fabricated though the newly developed electrophoretic deposition (EPD) method in 5 min. Moreover, the as-prepared luminescent films were successfully used for the detection of nitrobenzene (NB), trinitrotoluene (TNT) in gas phases, as well as NB, Cr3+ ions for detection in solution.
