In article number 1803613 , Larysa Baraban, Denys Makarov, and co‐workers present an experimental and theoretical study of visible light‐driven Ag/AgCl Janus micromotors revealing high motility in pure H 2 O. The propulsion efficiency is dependent on the intensity of visible light and contributed by the coupled effect of the plasmonic light absorption of Ag/AgCl and the efficient photochemical decomposition of AgCl. The application potential of Ag/AgCl micromotors in various physiological solutions and polluting agents is addressed.
