Graphical Abstract

High-quality Pd@CeO2 core@shell nanocomposites with tunable Pd core sizes and shapes were obtained by using the biomolecule l-arginine to trigger CeO2 crystal growth and self-assembly on Pd nanoparticles. In their Communication on page 4542 ff., H. J. Zhang, R. Jin, S. Song, and co-workers study the growth mechanism of this process and show that the hybrid structure of the nanocomposites is more important in determining their catalytic performance than shape and size effects.
