The inside cover image shows a tilted SEMFE image of La 0.7 Sr 0.3 MnO 3 vertical nanorods. A. Carretero‐Genevrier and co‐workers have established a new method to generate vertical complex oxides nanostructures based on a sol–gel precursor solution and using track‐etched polymers that act to buffer the substrate, which is described on page 892 . These vertical nanorods grown at mild temperature undergo a complete structural, morphological, and chemical transformation into single crystalline (LaSr) x O y nanopyramids upon thermal activation at 1000°C.
