Abstract / Description of output

Here we present detailed structural data on the effect of high pressure on Cu-btc. Application of pressure causes solvent to be squeezed into the pores until a phase transition occurs, driven by the sudden compression and expansion of equatorial and axial Cu-O bonds.
