ON THE COVER: (Top Left) Operating principle of a solid-oxide fuel cell (SOFC). See article on p. 16. (Top Right) The model structure for a vanadium-oxide-pillared layered compound. See article on p. 39. (Bottom) A molecular-dynamics simulation of lithium and chlorine ions in amorphous poly(ethylene oxide). Atom color codes: red is oxygen, light gray is hydrogen, dark gray is carbon, yellow is lithium, and green is chlorine. With thanks to Alvo Aabloo (Tartu University, Estonia) and Mattias Klintenberg (Uppsala University, Sweden). For more information, see the theme that begins on page 11.
