A porous supramolecular ionic solid

Abstract

We report a synthetic strategy to integrate discrete coordination cages into extended porous materials by decorating opposite charges on the singular cage, which offers multidirectional electrostatic forces among cages and leads to a porous supramolecular ionic solid. The resulting material is non-centrosymmetric and affords a piezoelectric coefficient of 8.19 pC N−1, higher than that of the wurtzite ZnO.
