The Cover Feature illustrates the in situ electropolymerization of 1,3‐dioxolane at voltages higher than 4 V. This electropolymerization produces a polyether‐based layer on the electrode surface. This turns out to be a promising strategy to improve the electrode/electrolyte interface of high‐voltage cathodes and to stabilize Li/S cell performance upon long‐term cycling.
