Enhanced Oxygen‐Evolution Photoanodes In article number 2207136, Salvador Eslava and co‐workers demonstrate a successful design of BiVO 4 /bismuthene/NiFeOOH composite photoanodes for enhanced solar water oxidation. They found that bismuthene increases the density of oxygen vacancies on BiVO 4 , increases interfacial band bending, and fills vacancy‐related electron traps with charges, whereas NiFeOOH significantly increases surface hole concentration by passivating recombination surface states.
