In article number 1904723, Hung‐Lung Chou, Di‐Yan Wang, and co‐workers present how earth‐abundant iron pyrite nanocrystals grown on carbon fiber paper (FeS 2 /CFP) exhibit a good electrocatalytic performance for the nitrogen reduction reaction with a high faradaic efficiency (FE) of ≈14.14%. With NIR laser irradiation (808 nm), the NH 3 yield rate of the FeS 2 /CFP catalyst can be improved to (0.1 µg min −1 ) with high FE of 14.57%.
