Abstract
Covalent organic frameworks (COFs) are promising photocatalysts for water splitting, but their efficiency lags behind that of inorganic counterparts partly due to the limited charge transport and optical absorption properties. To overcome this limitation, we proposed to employ three-dimensional (3D) fully conjugated (FC) COFs with a topological assembly of cyclooctatetraene derivatives for photocatalytic water splitting. On the basis of first-principles calculations, we demonstrated that these 3D FC-COFs are semiconductors with exceptional charge transport and optical absorption properties. The carrier mobilities are comparable to those of inorganic semiconductors and superior to the record mobility observed in two-dimensional COFs. Additionally, the 3D FC-COFs exhibit broad visible light absorption with direct band gaps and high optical absorption coefficients. Among them, two 3D FC-COFs are identified for overall water splitting, while three others can facilitate the hydrogen evolution half-reaction. This study pioneers the design of 3D FC-COF photocatalysts, potentially advancing their applications in photocatalysis and optoelectronics.

Abstract
In this study, we synthesized novel bipyridine-based, sp2-carbon-linked COFs with the incorporation of ultra-small metal nanoparticles for enhanced photocatalytic tetracycline hydrochloride degradation and hydrogen evolution. The obtained photocatalyst exhibits strong visible light absorption and modulated electronic structure, owing to charge transfer between the metal and COFs, resulting in tuned proton absorption/desorption energy. As a result, the Pd-COFs exhibit remarkable photocatalytic activities for both tetracycline hydrochloride removal and hydrogen evolution. Specifically, the rate constant of photocatalytic tetracycline hydrochloride removal reaches 0.03406 min-1 with excellent stability and the photocatalytic hydrogen evolution rate reaches 98.17 mmol g-1 h-1, outperforming the-state-of-the-art photocatalysts with noble Pt loading.

Abstract
Three-dimensional covalent organic frameworks (3D COFs) with spatially periodic networks demonstrate significant advantages over their 2D counterparts, including enhanced specific surface areas, interconnected channels, and more sufficiently exposed active sites. Nevertheless, research on these materials has met an impasse due to serious problems in crystallization and stability, which must be solved for practical applications. In this Minireview, we first summarize some strategies for preparing functional 3D COFs, including crystallization techniques and functionalization methods. Hereafter, applications of these functional materials are presented, covering adsorption, separation, catalysis, fluorescence, sensing, and batteries. Finally, the future challenges and perspectives for the development of 3D COFs are discussed.

Abstract
Developing conjugated three-dimensional (3D) covalent organic frameworks (COFs) still remains an extremely difficult task due to the lack of enough conjugated 3D building blocks. Herein, condensation between an 8-connected pentiptycene-based D2h building block (DMOPTP) and 4-connected square-planar linkers affords two 3D COFs (named 3D-scu-COF-1 and 3D-scu-COF-2). A combination of the 3D homoaromatic conjugated structure of the former building block with the 2D conjugated structure of the latter linking units enables the π-electron delocalization over the whole frameworks of both COFs, endowing them with excellent conductivities of 3.2-3.5 × 10-5 S cm-1. In particular, the 3D rigid quadrangular prism shape of DMOPTP guides the formation of a twofold interpenetrated scu 3D topology and high-connected permanent porosity with a large Brunauer-Emmett-Teller (BET) surface area of 2340 and 1602 m2 g-1 for 3D-scu-COF-1 and 3D-scu-COF-2, respectively, ensuring effective small molecule storage and mass transport characteristics. This, in combination with their good charge transport properties, renders them promising sulfur host materials for lithium-sulfur batteries (LSBs) with high capacities (1035-1155 mA h g-1 at 0.2 C, 1 C = 1675 mA g-1), excellent rate capabilities (713-757 mA h g-1 at 5.0 C), and superior cycling stability (71-83% capacity retention at 2.0 C after 500 cycles), surpassing the most of organic LSB cathodes reported thus far.
