Abstract

An amino-bridged CdS/COF S-scheme heterojunction is constructed via molecular interfacial engineering. This design enhances charge separation while preserving strong redox capabilities. It prolongs carrier lifetime by 3.4-fold and boosts overall water splitting performance over 10-fold without sacrificial agents, highlighting the pivotal role of precise interface engineering.
