“…Interestingly, the nanoporous channels of COF improve the diffusion kinetics of the charges that flow in and out of it . Furthermore, due to the modular construction principle and the vast variety of organic reactions to construct COFs, the molecular building blocks are precisely assembled into a crystalline framework, align donor–acceptor moieties, control the planarity, and retain the conjugation of the framework, which all tune the polymeric band structure and electronically activate the redox functionalities of the framework. − Owing to these fascinating properties and additionally the controllable pore structure, large surface area, simple surface/structural modification, and high thermal and chemical stability, COFs have been investigated as intriguing electrode materials in reversible energy storage, especially in secondary ion batteries (Li + , Na + , K + , Mg 2+ , Ca 2+ , Zn 2+ , , , Al 3+ , etc.) (Figure A) …”
