Efficient charge transfer occurs between a semiconductor and metal‐organic frameworks (MOFs) in the hybrid MOF‐semiconductor core‐shell structures designed and fabricated by Y. Xiong, Q. Zhang, J. Jiang and co‐workers, as described on page 4783. This unique architecture supplies long‐lifetime electrons for photocatalytic reduction of MOF‐captured carbon dioxide into methane fuels with assistance of water.
