title: Defects in MOFs: a thorough characterization.
abstract: As indicated by nearly perfect XRD data, but challenged by a two-signal IR spectrum of CO guest molecules, it is confirmed by computer simulations and XPS experiments that the most defect-free SURMOFs contain about 4% defective Cu sites.
