In article number 1700019 , a hybrid carbon nanowall tetrapods‐nanocrystalline diamond network synthesized by hot‐filament chemical vapour deposition by Eduardo L. Silva and co‐workers. This 3D carbon architecture is grown by starting from nanodiamond‐ZnO tetrapod templates. The image illustrates the electrochemically controlled wetting behavior of this material, which allows the transition from hydrophobic behavior under negative potentials to hydrophilic at positive ones.
