The Cover Feature shows the chemical mapping of SiGe@Si core‐shell nanoparticles, demonstrated for the first time, and the reactor used to synthesize them using laser pyrolysis method. The original Si−Ge structure illustrated here is linked to the remarkable performance (capacity and stability) of the nanoparticles as anode of Li‐ion batteries.More information can be found in the Communication by A.
