The Cover Feature shows the molecular structure of zinc‐phosphido clusters with a background of a sun‐filled beach on the southern coast of Sardinia, Italy. These clusters can be used to prepare zinc phosphides, promising materials for photovoltaic applications. The 8‐membered ring in the Zn 4 P 4 cluster adopts a boat‐boat conformation in the solid state. The life‐saving boat depicted also symbolizes the contribution that photovoltaic materials can play in addressing climate change. More information can be found in the Full Paper by K. Lee, Y. Huang, and J. F. Corrigan.
