Zusammenfassung:The Cover Feature illustrates the surface engineering of hematite‐based photoanodes by cocatalyst incorporation for solar‐to‐hydrogen conversion applications. Nowadays, the challenges faced on the state‐of‐the‐art are associated to simultaneous manipulation of the charge transport and surface kinetics on hematite photoanodes. In their Minireview, F. L. Souza and co‐workers discuss recent successful noble‐free materials such as FeNi‐based cocatalysts to overcome the slow kinetics on designed photoanodes. Moreover, they provide new insights on the manipulation of complex parameters that govern the overall hematite performance to achieve highly solar to hydrogen conversion rates. More information can be found in the Minireview by F. L. Souza and co‐workers.
