The Cover shows Co‐based nanoparticles grown on a two‐dimensional N‐doped and macroporous carbon nanosheet with a superior catalytic activity for the oxygen reduction and oxygen evolution reactions.In their Full Paper, J. Gao et al. demonstrate a facile one‐pot thermal treatment method to obtain Co‐Np‐CNs. The enhanced catalytic activity might arise from the 2D nanosheets and porous structures, the well‐dispersed Co‐based NPs on the carbon sheets, the introduction of electron‐rich nitrogen and the stability conferred by the carbon protection of Co‐based NPs between the interlayers of nanosheets. More information can be found in the Full Paper by J. Gao et al. on page 1601 in Issue 9, 2017 (DOI: 10.1002/cctc.201601207).
