In article number 1900283 Verónica Salgueiriño and co‐workers present multicomponent iron oxide nanocrystals obtained from a kinetically‐controlled process. The nanocrystals stem from the growth of FeO nuclei and the subsequent partial phase transition to Fe 3 O 4 , offering iron oxide nanostars with tips elongated in the <111> direction of the cubic structure.
