Noble‐metal‐based catalysts , accounting for over 70 % of the global heterogeneous catalyst field, are extensively used in fine chemicals, agriculture, and environmental protection. In their Review article on page 5113 ff., X. Hong et al. describe recent advances regarding atomic control of the core–shell noble‐metal catalysts, with a focus on surface regulation. First, synthesis methods and surface structures are summarized, and then catalytic applications of these architectures are highlighted.
