An edge‐rich ultrathin MoS 2 /RGO hybrid prepared by a confinement synthesis and used as an electrocatalyst for hydrogen evolution is depicted. The glycerol‐generated quasi‐emulsion system offers a steric‐hindrance effect to confine the growth of tiny MoS 2 nanosheets on the graphene substrates. Owing to the highly exposed active sites and enhanced conductivity, the MoS 2 /RGO hybrid delivers excellent activity and decent stability toward the hydrogen evolution reaction.
