On page 683 , Ian MacLaren and co‐workers report the discovery of novel Nd‐oxide nanorod precipitates in Nd/Ti co‐doped bismuth ferrite. The 3D structure of these unique nanoscale objects is reconstructed using a combination of atomic resolution scanning transmission electron microscopy imaging and spectroscopy with density functional calculations, which also reveal novel electronic properties around the nanorods.
