Advanced Materials, EarlyView.This work reveals that charge transport in nickel benzenehexathiol coordination nanosheets is governed by variable‐range hopping reflecting structural disorder. Electrolyte gating induces a switch in dominant carrier polarity from p‐type to n‐type and leads to an improvement in thermoelectric performance.
