Layered Cu 2 MoS 4 nanosheets are prepared by L. Song, Z. Y. Wu, and co‐workers via a solvothermal method, in which Cu 2 O is used as a sacrificial template. On page 4637, the microstructure of Cu 2 MoS 4 nanosheets is identified at the atomic level. The growth mechanism is monitored on the nanoscale by systematic time‐dependent experiments. It is found that the Kirkendall effect, Ostwald ripening, and oriented attachment play important roles in the growth process of ternary Cu 2 MoS 4 atomic layers.
