Edge‐functionalized graphene nanoplatelets (EFGnPs) can be produced by ball‐milling in a simple and ecofriendly manner. As described by Jong‐Beom Baek and Do Hyung Kweon in article number 1804440 , the unique feature of this process is the use of kinetic energy to generate active carbon species, which react with target substances. Due to their tunable edge‐functionality, EFGnPs can offer various potential applications. EFGnPs are depicted here as counter electrodes materials in dye‐sensitized solar cells.
