Pd nanocrystals were produced with uniform truncated‐cube shape and a narrow size distribution, yielding controlled surface area fractions from low Miller index ({100}, {110}, {111}) crystalline facets. Details on the structure and morphology of the nanocrystals were obtained by combining X‐ray powder diffraction line profile analysis, high‐resolution transmission electron microscopy and surface electrochemistry based on Cu underpotential deposition.
