In article number 2003943, Hongfang Li, Rong Cao, and co‐workers successfully synthesize a hollow mesoporous carbon sphere loaded Ni–N 4 single‐atom catalyst that exhibits superior catalytic activity toward CO 2 electrocatalytic reduction. The geometrical structure of carbon support is verified to affect the CO 2 reduction reaction performance greatly. The ultrathin carbon shell and the 7–10 nm mesopores of the hollow mesoporous carbon spheres facilitate the CO 2 molecule activation.
