Cover: Mixing poly(L‐lactide), poly(D‐lactide), and diphenyl ether (DE) produced a crystallosolvate, consisting of homo‐chiral (hc) and stereocomplex (sc) crystals of the polymers and amorphous DE domains. Nanoscopic analysis revealed that sc granules with a diameter of 20 nm were formed via the solvation‐induced collapse of rod‐like hc lamellae. Further details can be found in the article by H. Nakajima, I. Wataoka, H. Ohara, and Y. Kimura * on page 1915 .
