In article number 2002432, Zhixin Wan, Bin Xi, and co‐workers find that atomic layer deposition (ALD) of CoN preferentially grows on the defects of sulfur‐doped carbon nanofiber/Co 1‐ x S matrix and modulates its surface/interface to produce an active and stable cobalt catalyst for overall water splitting. The strong electronic coupling between Co 1‐ x S and ALD CoN is found to play an important role for such performance.
