The Cover Feature shows how the controlled assembly of gold nanoparticles strongly enhances the visible‐light photosensitizing efficiency of silica–PpIX nanocomposites (PpIX=protoporphyrin IX) by boosting the production of reactive oxygen species. More information can be found in the Article by G. Zampini et al. on page 553 in Issue 12, 2017 (DOI: 10.1002/cptc.201700139).
