Structural Design on Porous Aromatic Frameworks for Photocatalysis

Photocatalytic technology has shown great potential in various fields such as environmental purification, energy conversion, and chemical transformations due to its green, sustainable, and low‐cost characteristics. Porous aromatic frameworks (PAFs) with high specific surface areas, designable local structures, and abundant active sites could potentially serve as efficient photocatalysts for various catalytic reactions. This makes PAFs have a wide range of application prospects and significant advantages in the field of photocatalysis. This concept discusses the recent progress of photocatalysis over PAFs. Various strategies are used to solve the general problems of photocatalyst, such as poor light absorption, low carrier separation efficiency and poor stability, which further reveal the relationship between their structure and performance.
