The cover picture shows the crystal structure of Ba 4 Li 2 Cd 3 Pn 6 ( Pn = P, As, Sb), which is based on infinite chains of supertetrahedral T 2 clusters. Electronic structure calculations suggest that these materials are potential candidates for thermoelectric applications. The structural similarities between these novel compounds and another set of compounds, exemplified by the La 4 Mg 5 Ge 6 structure, are also described. Details are discussed in the article by S. Bobev et al. on p. 5113 ff . For more on the story behind the cover research, see the Cover Profile .
