Properties and Applications of Dielectric Materials Derived from Metal-Organic Frameworks - A Review

Abstract

An electrical insulator known as a dielectric material is a substance that can be solid, liquid, or gaseous. Having a high specific resistance, a dielectric material is a non-metallic substance. A dielectric function as the perfect capacitor, storing and dissipating electrical energy. Due to the rising need for capacitors, semiconductor devices, Liquid Crystal Displays, electrical transformers, and other products, properties including electric susceptibility, dielectric polarisation, dispersion, relaxation, and tunability have received a great deal of attention. Advanced materials must be developed in order to further enhance their performance. Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs), a class of porous crystalline solids, have shown to be ideal models for synthesising functional materials that may be used to make supercapacitor electrodes. Greater electrical conductivity, a higher charge capacity, and variable electrochemical activity are just a few benefits that bimetallic MOFs and their derivatives have over monometallic MOFs. This study focuses on the usage of MOF-derived bimetallic in dielectric materials, with particular attention paid to understanding the cause of the enhanced performance and covering the most recent advancements in the area with a variety of applications.
