Front Cover: Designing Efficient Catalysts through Bimetallic Architecture: Rh@Pt Nanocubes as a Case Study (ChemNanoMat 11/2017)

The performance of nanocatalysts can be enhanced through precise control of bimetallic architecture. For core@shell metal nanocrystals, both the shell thickness and particle shape should be controlled for optimal activity and selectivity. This approach should be generalizable to any structure-sensitive process when appropriate core and shell materials are selected to impart strain. More information can be found in the Full Paper by S. E. Skrabalak et al. on page 815 in Issue 11, 2017 (DOI: 10.1002/cnma.201700167).
