On page 6332, X. Y. Zhong, X. X. Ke, and co‐workers develop a method that uses 3D electron tomography to quantify the distribution of surface atoms of a Au@Pd concave nanocube according to their coordination number. The quantification of low‐coordinated surface atoms is essential to correlate the catalytic properties to the surface structures of real catalysts and to bridge the “materials gap”.
