The Cover Feature exhibits the concept of a supramolecular electrolyte (SSE) in lithium metal batteries. Supramolecular organization is used to fabricate the ion channel (represented by the bridge) to connect the lithium-metal electrode (represented by the flaring mountain). Structural units cucurbit[6]uril are shown as streetlights along the ion channel to enlighten the Li+ (vehicles) moving from/to the lithium metal electrode. More information can be found in the Communication by J. Xie et al.
