The front cover shows the three‐dimensional rendering of a gas diffusion electrode, used in fuel cells and CO 2 electrolyzers, where a thin, uniform, and crack‐free catalyst layer is crucial to efficient operation. On page 589 , Paul J. A. Kenis and co‐workers employ coupled micro‐computed X‐ray tomography and electrochemical analyses to characterize electrode structure–performance relationships as a function of catalyst layer deposition methodology.
