The preparation of high‐quality two‐dimensional materials with highly interesting properties and applications, such as graphene and graphene analogues, is a rapidly expanding research area. Herein, two‐dimensional porous Co 3 O 4 sheets with high uniformity were synthesized via a facile hydrothermal route. Various characterizations were performed to investigate this sheet‐like structure. Owing to the desired promotion effects and multiple functionalities derived from this unique structure, the porous Co 3 O 4 sheets present an enhanced photocatalytic performance in comparison with the bulk Co 3 O 4 powder.
