Abstract

We demonstrate computationally that two-dimensional polyphenylene is a typical semiconductor with a wide band gap, and the porous structure endows polyphenylene remarkably high selectivity for H2 permeability relative to CO2, CO and CH4. This experimentally available porous graphene is expected to find applications in a hydrogen energy society.
