The synthesis of highly branched concave Au/Pd bimetallic nanocrystals by seed‐mediated growth at room temperature is described by A. W. Xu et al. in their Communication on page 645 ff. These star‐shaped nanostructures have high‐index facets on their surfaces, exhibit much better catalytic activity for the oxidation of ethanol than spherical Au/Pd catalysts, and show highly efficient SERS enhancement.
