Liquid metal microcapsules, described by Minwoo Park, Chan‐Moon Chung, and co‐workers in article number 1800110 , are a promising material for self‐healing of metalic interconnects. In situ polymerization of urea‐formaldehyde onto In‐Ga‐Zn‐Sn colloids enables the massive production of core–shell microcapsules, and they exhibit outstanding healing performance on the damaged metal contact of flexible perovskite solar cells by outflow of liquid metal from the ruptured capsules.
