Abstract
Lithium metal batteries have garnered significant attention due to their high energy density and broad application prospects. However, the practical use of traditional liquid electrolytes is constrained by safety and stability challenges. In the exploration of novel electrolytes, solid-state electrolyte materials have emerged as a focal point. Covalent organic frameworks (COFs), with their large conjugated structures and unique electronic properties, are gradually gaining attention as an emerging class of solid-state electrolyte materials. In recent years, outstanding electrochemical performance has been achieved through the design and synthesis of various types of COF-based solid-state electrolytes, along with successful integration with other functional materials. This review will provide an overview of the research progress on COFs as solid-state electrolyte materials for lithium metal batteries and offer insights into their future potential in battery technology.
