In article number 1901836, Joan Ramon Morante, Jordi Arbiol and co‐workers find that modifying the hematite/electrolyte interface with ultrathin Fe 2 TiO 5 and CoFe PBA improves the photoelectrochemical water oxidation of hematite photoanodes in acidic electrolytes. The modified hematite/electrolyte interface alters the surface states at hematite photoanodes, and thus improves the surface water oxidation kinetics.
