Cu2(OHPTP) is presented as the first rhombic single-crystalline 2D conjugated MOF.
Caveat: First-example claim not independently verified beyond the paper's literature comparison.
2 · Introduction · Linked to 5 structured results
THz spectroscopy indicates a charge-carrier mobility of 10 cm2 V-1 s-1, claimed as a record among semiquinoid 2D c-MOFs.
Caveat: Mobility is Drude-Smith-model-derived and strongly affected by backscattering parameter assumptions.
9 · Conclusion · Linked to 3 structured results
The electrical response depends on measurement environment; vacuum THz measurements produced substantially higher sigma_DC than ambient THz or argon contact measurements, probably because environment alters pore doping.
Caveat: The paper explicitly states this will be studied in future work; exact vacuum sigma_DC values are figure-axis estimates here.

Cu2(OHPTP) is a p-type semiconductor with an indirect band gap around 0.5 eV.
Caveat: UPS showed no clear valence-band maximum; p-type assignment is based on states close to EF and conductivity/THz behaviour.
2 · Abstract · Linked to 4 structured results
Layer stacking and proximity effects enhance out-of-plane band dispersion and dominate the overall transport properties.
Caveat: Based primarily on DFT comparison of monolayer and layered bulk models.
6 · Results and Discussion · Figure 3 · Linked to 4 structured results
Bulk pellet and temperature-dependent THz data support thermally activated hopping-type charge transport between crystals in polycrystalline Cu2(OHPTP).
Caveat: Mechanism is for polycrystalline samples; authors expect larger crystals to have much higher mobility.
