Abstract

Abstract : The Cover Feature shows a high current‐density electrocatalyst (Mo0.7 W0.3 B2 ) for the hydrogen evolution reaction. Its high activity stems from the synergistic effect of Mo that stabilizes the highly active B layer, and the presence of W which facilitates bonding between H atoms. More information can be found in the Communication by H. Park et al. on page 3726 in Issue 16, 2019 (DOI: 10.1002/cssc.201901301 ).
