Free‐standing sheets made of aligned nitrogen‐doped carbon nanotubes (CN x ) are reported on page 1069 by Xavier Lepró and co‐workers. Similar to undoped carbon nanotubes (CNTs), such sheets can be twisted into strong, weavable, sewable, and knottable CN x yarns without requiring the addition of CNT sheets to confine unaligned CN x material. These yarns exhibit catalytic activity and larger capacitances than typical twist‐spun CNT yarns.
