Solar Evaporators In article number 2102649, Ji‐Hyun Jang and co‐workers present a 3D‐printed solar evaporator that can efficiently utilize solar energy (99%) with an evaporation rate of 1.60 kg m −2 h −1 and efficiency of 89% under 1 sun irradiation, which promotes light‐harvesting capacity via multiple reflections on the surface and provides competitive benefits for preventing deposition of salt while quickly pumping the water, for long‐term provision of drinking water in remote locations.
