In article number 1704531 , Ye Wang, Yi‐Jun Xu, and co‐workers reveal the double‐edged sword role of graphene on boosted charge separation/transfer versus active site control by constructing a TiO 2 nanotube arrays@RGO/MoS 2 heterostructure. This finding manifests that an efficient design for a specific photoredox process over graphene‐semiconductor photocatalysts should take both improved charge separation/transfer and active sites control into account, instead of only overemphasizing and harnessing the electron conductivity of graphene medium.
