Abstract

The development of green and efficient hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) production is of great interest but remains challenging. Herein, we develop a new and simple strategy via locking the coplanarity in highly crystalline covalent triazine frameworks (CTFs) to remarkably boost direct photosynthesis of H2O2 from oxygen and water. The exfoliated ultrathin 2D-CTF nanosheets exhibit excellent photocatalytic H2O2 evolution with an ultrahigh solar-to-chemical efficiency of 0.91% and a superb apparent quantum yield of 16.8% at 420 nm, surpassing all previous CTFs and most of the metal-free photocatalysts ever reported. Our detailed experimental and theoretical studies reveal that the spatially locked structure in the…
