Wenyu Yuan and co‐workers design a novel 2D‐layered carbon/TiO 2 (C/TiO 2 ) architecture via one–step CO 2 oxidation of 2D Ti 3 C 2 in article number 1700577 . The 2D carbon layers play a key role in enhancing separation efficiency of carriers, enhance the light utilization and facilitate the diffusion of H 2 . This research broadens the applications of C/TiO 2 hybrids and provides a new approach to synthesize novel 2D layered materials for photocatalytic applications.
