Cover: Well dispersed silver nanoparticles were fabricated in hydrogels of poly[( N ‐isopropylacrylamide)‐ co ‐(sodium acrylate)], in which the nanoparticles are stabilized by the polymer network. It has been demonstrated that the hydrogel network structure determines the size and shape of the nanoparticles and that they are very stable. Further details can be found in the article by Y. M. Mohan, T. Premkumar, K. Lee, and K. E. Geckeler * on page 1346.
