A dimensional transition of 2D chemically exfoliated MoS 2 into 3D structurally deformed crumpled nanostructures enables the modulation of the catalytic property, the improvement of the longterm operational stability, and the preservation of the structural integrity under both continuous measurements and high temperature up to 300 °C, while preserving the synthetic scalability. The experimental demonstration by Stanley S. Chou, Vincent Tung, and co‐workers in article number 1703863 provides elegant insights into how physical transformations can be leveraged to direct energetics of electrochemical processes for highly efficient and thermally stable hydrogen evolution reactions.
