A novel and mechanically‐robust composite with a leaf‐shaped morphology for Li‐ion battery anodes is designed. The composite anode exhibits high capacity and stable rate‐performance owing to its bio‐inspired structure, which is confirmed by using density functional theory calculations and in‐situ transmission electron microscopy. More details can be found in article number 1901149 by Jinyun Liu, Yonghong Ni, Jinjin Li, and co‐workers.
