Understanding of the electric transport through surface-anchored metal-organic frameworks (SURMOFs) is important both from a fundamental perspective as well as with regards to possible future applications in electronic devices. To address this mostly unexplored subject, we integrated a series of representative SURMOF thin films, formed by copper nodes and trimesic acid and known as HKUST-1, in a mercury-drop based tunneling junction. Although the transport properties of these SURMOFs are analogous to those of hybrid metal-organic molecular wires, manifested by a very low value of the tunneling decay constant (β = 0.006 1/Å), they are at the same time found to be consistent with a linear increase of resistance with film thickness. Upon loading of SURMOF pores with ferrocene or tetracyanoquinodimethane (TCNQ), a noticeable increase in transport current was observed, being especially dramatic (6 orders of the magnitude) in the case of TCNQ. Relevant structural and transport models are discussed.
