Single atoms catalysts’ (SACs) applications in the energy storage field are hindered by their insufficient stability and poor recyclability due to their oxidation and agglomeration. To address this challenge, herein, a Co‐CMS composite material is synthesized by confining Co SACs into the highly ord...
