The Inside Back Cover image shows the one‐step scalable synthesis of efficient nanocrystalline manganese oxide water‐oxidation catalysts by flame spray pyrolysis. The primary particle size of the synthesized nanoparticles can be facilely controlled down to a few nanometers. This enables a morphology‐independent comparison of the specific water oxidation activity of different manganese oxide polymorphs. These high‐temperature synthesized nanocatalysts have up to 350 % higher surface‐specific turnover frequencies than commercial isomorphs, demonstrating potential for large‐scale production of efficient water oxidation nanocatalysts. More details can be found in the Full Paper by Liu et al. on page 4162 in Issue 24, 2015 (DOI: 10.1002/cssc.201500704).
