Carbon fluoride materials are one of the current research hotspots in the international high-tech, high-performance, and high-efficiency new carbon-based materials. They possess exceptional performance and unique properties due to the different types of C–F bonds, adjustable F/C ratios, various configuration and fluorine patterns, and which endow them with distinctive, tunable band gaps, optical properties, electrical conductivity, magnetic properties, tribological properties, mechanical performance, and thermal conductivity etc. These materials have attracted significant attention in the global scientific community.
