Abstract:Covalent organic frameworks (COFs) face limited processability challenges as photoelectrodes in photoelectrochemical water reduction. Herein, sub‐10 nm benzothiazole‐based colloidal conjugated reticular oligomers (CROs) are synthesized using an aqueous nanoreactor approach, and the end‐capping molecular strategy to engineer electron‐deficient units onto the periphery of a CRO nanocrystalline lattices (named CROs‐Cg). This results in stable and processable “electronic inks” for flexible photoelectrodes. CRO‐Btz… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
