Silver‐decorated ultrathin graphitic carbon nitride nanosheets (Ag@U‐g‐C 3 N 4 ‐NS), through a post‐gasetching treatment of bulk g‐C 3 N 4 in conjunction with the uniform growth of Ag nanoparticles on its surface, are crafted by Yuekun Lai, Zhiqun Lin, and co‐workers, as described in article number 1806314 . The optimum Ag@U‐g‐C 3 N 4 ‐NS photocatalyst exhibits excellent electrochemical properties and performance for the degradation of organic pollutants and H 2 O 2 production.
