In article number 1704047 , Hao Ming Chen and co‐workers demonstrate an empirical utilization of light/heavy holes with hybrid metal‐2D semiconductor nanoplatelets, where the different roles are executed by light‐holes and heavy‐holes. This hybrid photocatalyst boosts the hole‐transfer and suppresses the recombination, achieving a high photocurrent density of 2.01 mA cm −2 at 1.23 V vs the reduced hydrogen electrode under AM 1.5 G illumination in non‐sacrificial neutral solution.
