The cover image shows a transmission electron microscopy image of selenium nanowires from the self‐reorganization process of stabilizer‐depleted CdSe nanoparticles in the presence of a complexing agent. On p. 358, Kotov and co‐workers report the preparation of semiconductor nanowires with tightly controlled diameter using stabilizer‐depleted nanoparticles rather than typical molecules as reaction precursors.
