Artificial micro/nanomotors that could perform diverse tasks autonomously at the micro/nano scale hold great promise in environmental remediation applications. In article number 1802771 , Wenjuan Liu, Xiaolong Lu, Jinxing Li, Joseph Wang, and co‐workers synthesize highly efficient tubular poly(3,4‐ethylenedioxythiophene)/MnO 2 micromotors via potentiostatic deposition to obtain unique ramsdellite structures. The active ramsdellite‐MnO 2 layer enables effective propulsion and remarkable organic waste deconimination.
