Defect‐Enriched N‐Doped Carbon Nanotubes A facile and scalable approach has been developed to simultaneously produce structural defects and dope nitrogen on the surface of carbon nanotubes through controllable explosive decomposition of the melamine–cyanuric acid supramolecular assembly. The fabricated surface structural defect‐enriched N‐doped carbon nanotubes demonstrate significantly enhanced catalysis in direct dehydrogenation as a model reaction.
