Enhancing the charge separation efficiency is an effective strategy to improve the photocatalytic activity of covalent organic frameworks (COFs). This work reports a sevenfold increase in apparent quantum efficiency by using a near-single layer COF compared to bulk COF in photocatalytic hydrogen evolution. The study also highlights the significant influence of COF layer thickness on charge separation efficiency, providing a new route for preparing and stabilizing COF layers for practical applications.
Enhancing the charge separation efficiency is highly effective strategy in improving the photocatalytic activity of covalent organic frameworks (COFs) which have the problems of low conductivity and difficult dissociation of excitons. In this work, we report the sevenfold increase in apparent quantum efficiency resulting from the use of a near-single layer COF (SLCOF) in photocatalytic hydrogen evolution compared with bulk COF. Detected by transient absorption spectroscopy characterization, 100% of photogenerated long-lived electrons in the nearSLCOF can be extracted and participate in the photocatalytic process. However, the electron extraction efficiency declined to only about 11% when the COFs were increased to eight layers, implying the difficulty of charge migration among COFs interlayers. The near-SLCOF was prepared by deposition of self-exfoliated COFs colloids on SiO2, driven by their strong affinity. This work not only sheds light on the significant influence of COF layer thickness on the charge separation efficiency but also provides a new route to prepare and stabilize COF layers for practical applications.
