In article number 1702987 , Cheng Zhong, Yida Deng, and co‐workers synthesize atomic layer Co 3 O 4 nanosheets (1.6 nm thickness) by a simple solvothermal method with a controlled concentration of H 2 O 2 . The atomic layer Co 3 O 4 nanosheets exhibit high bifunctional activity for the oxygen reduction reaction and oxygen evolution reaction, which is key to knittable Zn–air batteries. The batteries are successfully knitted into clothes and show high cycling stability and high rate capability.
