A defect‐based carbon hollow‐sphere catalyst with dual‐atomic Co‐Pt species trapped in a multilayered carbon shell was synthesized by electrochemical activation. In their Communication on page 9404 ff., X. Yao et al. investigated the synergistic effect between the atomic metals on the adjacent carbon layers and showed how charge polarization crossing the carbon layers could substantially enhance the electrocatalytic hydrogen evolution performance.
