This inside cover picture represents the conversion of CO 2 to amorphous carbon and oxygen by using a Pt anode and a tungsten cathode. Solar energy can be utilized for the requested renewable energy sources during electrolysis. The obtained amorphous carbon in the cathode can be used for negative electrode materials for Li‐ion batteries, whereas the oxygen can be vented to the atmosphere, as explained by S. Jiao et al. p. 224.
