In article number 1901687, Po‐Yen Chen and co‐workers develop a generalized approach via sequential thermal actuations, to construct biomimetic 2D‐material nanocoatings, including Ti 3 C 2 T x MXene, reduced graphene oxide, and MoS 2 This design is inspired by the black scales of Bitis rhinoceros . The hierarchical MXene nanocoatings result in broadband light absorption, and demonstrate improved light‐to‐heat performance, demonstrating the potential for practical applications in solar steam generation and wearable thermal management.
