Be our guest! Silicon clathrate with sodium guest atoms is studied as a potential anode material for lithium‐ion batteries. An electrochemical, structural, and first‐principles analysis is conducted to understand the phase changes occurring upon lithium insertion and removal from these cage‐like silicon structures.
