| contents | Layered conductive metal-organic frameworks (LCMOFs) show great promise in energy and electronics due to their high electrical conductivity and tunable pore structures. They are considered ideal "phonon-glass, electron-crystal" materials. However, their intrinsic thermal transport properties, particularly the thermal conductivity in the single-crystalline state, have never been explored before. The applicability of the Wiedemann-Franz law to such complex porous materials is a key scientific question to describe their thermoelectric relationship. We investigated single crystals of three LCMOFs (Cu3HHTP2, Co9HHTP4, Nd3HHTP2) using the microfabricated suspended device. Results showed ultralow thermal conductivities (0.075-0.194 W m-1 K-1) along the π-π stacking direction. Crucially, Nd3HHTP2 exhibited a high electrical conductivity of 398 S cm-1, yet its thermal conductivity (0.148 W m-1 K-1) was comparable to the other two LCMOFs with significantly lower electrical conductivities. Structural characterization revealed that the incommensurate modulation, and in-plane correlated disorder within the Nd3HHTP2 structure are the potential causes of strong phonon scattering and the observed ultralow thermal conductivity. |
