Synthetic approaches based on deep eutectic solvents allow the preparation of phophate‐functionalized carbon monoliths with a hierarchical structure. Both functionalization and hierarchy—combining macropores and high surface areas while preserving high monolith densities—are critical for the ahievement of remarkable energy densities in supercapacitor cells.
