In article 1701964 , Xiao Tang, Guozhong Cao, and co‐workers discover the special microstructure evolution of TiO 2 in a 4 °C aqueous solution, from initially aperiodic 2D atom‐networks gradually grown into large‐size anatase nanosheets. The resultant TiO 2 nanosheets demonstrate remarkably enhanced photocatalysis and surface activities to spontaneously activate visible light driven photocatalytic reduction.
