Carbon-based materials have excellent broadband absorption and high photo-thermal conductivity, and become excellent materials in future interface solar water evaporation. MOFs (metal-organic framework materials) are a kind of crystalline porous materials with periodic network, which are connected by self-assembly of metal ions or metal clusters and bridged organic ligands. MOF can provide rich carbon source and realize doping of metal nanometer ions in carbon pore channel. High-entropy alloy: high-entropy alloy is a single-phase solid solution alloy containing five or more metals, and each metal is formed in a near-equal or equal atomic ratio. High-entropy alloy has been widely concerned in many fields in recent years due to its unique thermal, electrical, magnetic and mechanical properties. At the same time, the concept of high entropy has been extended to ceramics, catalysis, MOF, photothermal and other aspects. On this basis, high-entropy single atoms are introduced, which are loaded in MOF through coordination, and after heat treatment, a carbon-based porous structure photothermal material with high-entropy single atoms is obtained, which is applied to seawater evaporation.
