Understanding the molecular mechanism of proton conduction is crucial for the design of new materials with improved conductivity. Quasi-elastic neutron scattering (QENS) has been used to probe the mechanism of proton diffusion within a new phosphonate-based metal-organic framework (MOF) material, MFM-500(Ni). QENS suggests that the proton conductivity (4.5 x 10(-4) S/cm at 98% relative humidity and 25 degrees C) of MFM-500(Ni) is mediated by intrinsic free diffusion inside a sphere, representing the first example of such a mechanism observed in MOFs.
