[0090] Application Example 2

[0091] The method and steps for preparing the organic photoelectric rechargeable cell in Application Example 2 are basically the same as those in Application Example 1, except that:

[0092] In steps (1) and (2), covalent organic framework material 1 is replaced with the COF-50 type covalent organic framework material prepared in Example 2;
