Abstract

Abstract : Multiple‐stimuli‐responsive photoluminescence films based on a Zn II –organic framework were fabricated. This compound not only exhibited instant and reversible thermochromic properties corresponding to the removal of different H2 O and DMF guest molecules as temperature increases but also showed remarkable solvatochromic effects in the presence of various organic solvents without affecting its structural integrity. In addition, polycrystalline MOF films were grown on an α ‐Al2 O3 support for switchable, fast‐response thermochromic and solvatochromic sensors.
