Metric Options: Counts1 Year3 YearSelecting the 1-year or 3-year option will change the metrics count to percentiles, illustrating how an article or review compares to other articles or reviews within the selected time period in the same journal. Selecting the 1-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year. Selecting the 3-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year plus the two years prior.
Example: if you select the 1-year option for an article published in 2019 and a metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019. If you select the 3-year option for the same article published in 2019 and the metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019, 2018 and 2017.

Article Description
A combined experimental and theoretical investigation of CO adsorption in the metal-organic framework CuBTC is presented. Adsorption enthalpies were measured as a function of coverage up to 13 mmol g adsorbed amount (corresponding roughly to CO/Cu = 5:2) by a Tian-Calvet-type microcalorimeter. Experimetal data are interpreted based on accurate calculations employing a combined DFT-ab initio computational scheme. CO molecules adsorb preferentially on coordinatively unsaturated sites for coverages below CO/Cu = 1:1; at higher coverages (up to CO/Cu = 5:3), CO adsorbs in cage window sites; and at higher coverages, the sites in cage centers and in large cages start to be occupied. Experimental adsorption enthalpies are almost constant (-29 kJ mol) up to the CO/Cu = 5:3 coverage, suggesting a homogeneity of adsorption sites. However, calculations clearly show that adsorption sites in CuBTC are rather heterogeneous. The experimentally observed independence of adsorption enthalpies with respect to coverage is due to the cancellation of two effects: the decrease in the adsorbate-adsorbent interaction is compensated by an increase in the lateral interactions. © 2011 American Chemical Society.
