The structure optimization of Ni 3 S 2 /Ni electrodes for sodium ion batteries is studied in article number 1701684 by Xiaosheng Song, Xifei Li, Zhimin Bai, and co‐workers. It is found that different reaction interfaces of Ni foam result in various Ni 3 S 2 /Ni electrode morphologies. Sodium ion batteries are expected to be applied to large‐scale energy storage systems, such as wind‐generated electricity. Thus, in the cover picture, the background represents the ocean with substantial sodium resources and the wind‐driven power generation devices. One of the optimized electrode structures is also shown alongside the sodium ion batteries.
