Heterogeneous membranes that exhibit an ionic diode effect are promising candidates for osmotic energy conversion. However, existing heterogeneous membranes lack molecular-level designed ion channels, thereby limiting their power densities. Here, we demonstrate ionic diode covalent organic framework...
