A facile and novel one‐step method of growing nickel‐cobalt layered double hydroxide (Ni‐Co LDH) hybrid films with ultrathin nanosheets and porous nanostructures on nickel foam is presented using cetyltrimethylammonium bromide as nanostructure growth assisting agent but without any adscititious alka...
