The cover picture shows the structure of a water‐soluble C 60 ‐carrying single‐chain ammonium amphiphile, 10‐( N ‐Methyl‐2‐fulleropyrrolidyl)decyltrimethylammonium bromide ( 1 ; bottom left), and a typical transmission electron microscopic (TEM) image of 1 in aqueous solution (bottom right). The TEM image revealed that the aqueous solution of 1 forms both fibrous and disk‐like aggregates 10–12 nm thick through self‐organization of 1 (top). The synthesis, morphology, and electrochemistry of the amphiphile 1 are described in detail by N. Nakashima et al. on p. 1766 ff.
