N‐doped graphene nanoribbons (N‐GNRs) with surface enriched active sites and superb electrochemical activity are reported by Chang Yu, Jieshan Qiu, and co‐workers in article number 1500180. The N‐GNRs, which are a type of novel functional carbon composite made of in situ built‐in 1D and 2D nanocarbons, exhibit excellent stability and a remarkable efficiency of 8.57% in I3‐/I‐electrolyte when used as counter electrodes in dye‐sensitized solar cells.
