2 X-ray Diffraction (XRD): Each sample was characterized by using a Bruker D8 Advance equipped with a Si-strip detector (PSD Lynxeye ; position sensitive detector) with Cu K α1, radiation (λ = nm) in θ θ geometry, variable slit on primary circle. Scans were run over various ranges with step width of 0.0 θ and 8 seconds, for higher order peaks up to 33 seconds per step. The θ angle scanning range to observe corresponding peak to deposited film is picked up from 5 to 0. Infrared reflection absorption spectroscopy(irras): IRRAS were measured using the infrared spectrometer (Bruker VERTEX 80) purged with dried air. The spectra were recorded in grazing incidence reflection mode at a fixed angle of incidence of 80 relative to the surface normal using mercury cadmium telluride (MCT) detector. Predeuterated hexadecanethiol SAM on Au/Ti/Silicon substrates were used for reference measurements. The UV-Vis spectra were recorded in the range of 00 nm to 800 nm by means of a Cary5000spectrometer with a UMA unit from Agilent. The UV-Vis spectra of the SURMOFs on the quartz substrate were measured in transmission mode. Quartz Crystal Microbalance (QCM): A quartz crystal microbalance (QCM) was employed to growth an SURMOF thin film on a QCM sensor in a clean and well-controlled manner to further perform the uptake metal ions experiments. The QCM sensor was placed in a flow cell (Q-Sense E). Infiltration with guest molecules was achieved via a stream of liquid through the cell. The grown SURMOF QCM sensor was grown directly on gold wafer, which was functionalization with a11-mercapto-1-undecanol (MUD, 99%, Aldrich) self-assembled monolayer. SURMOF growth was carried out in situ in the QCM flow cell by alternating between the metal source solution (1 mm copper(ii) acetate), a solution of 0. mm ligand in ethanol and pure ethanol as described previously.
