Graphical Abstract
Back Cover
In article number 2201370, Cho, Kang, Park, and co-workers proposed a novel synthesis strategy for a nanostructured carbon yolk-shell microsphere that allows for the control of morphology and size of the yolk part for the first time. The prepared carbon yolk-shell microsphere was utilized as an effective reservoir for ultrafine metal compound nanocrystals. This rational synthesis strategy could be employed to further improve their application potential in various fields.
