Back Cover: Amorphous folic acid carbon nanoparticles (FA C‐NPs) are synthesized as FA solution at PH=7 (adjusted by NaHCO 3 ) being processed by microplasma. The produced FA C‐NPs are of uniform size (around 47 nm diameter), exhibiting an excitation independent emission peak around 445 nm and an enhanced quantum yields (QYs) ranging from 7.1% to 13% depending on excitation wavelength. Cell experiment shows the produced FA C‐NPs can be absorbed by MCF‐7 cancer cells and mark the cells clearly with its fluorescence emission. Further details can be found in the article by Qingyang Wang et al. See article number 1700088 .
