Abstract: We theoretically demonstrate that the two-dimensional porous C<subscript>2</subscript>N sheet exhibits an extremely high selectivity and large permeance in favour of H<subscript>2</subscript> among other atmospheric gases. This experimentally available porous C<subscript>2</subscript>N is superior to traditional membranes, such as polymers and silica, and could have great potential for hydrogen separation.
