In article number 1707301 , Mingliang Du, Wenbo Wu, Shaojun Guo, and co‐workers demonstrate a concept of manipulating the hydrogen adsorption energy and kinetic energy barrier for the transition state 2H* to boost hydrogen‐evolution catalysis by tuning a precise tensile surface strain through the shell layer number in Co 9 S 8 –MoS 2 core–shell nanocrystals.
