Abstract
under visible light, which is 88.4 times higher than that of Tpe-hCOF. This result highlights the crucial roles of simultaneous enhancement of the protonation and conjugation in improving photocatalytic hydrogen evolution of COFs, providing valuable insights for the design of COF materials to achieve the superior electronic functions in photocatalysis.
