Outside Front Cover: Neutral Octa‐Adamantane Chalcogenidometalate Clusters via Amine Complexation and Organotin Termination for Nanolithography (Angew. Chem. Int. Ed. 13/2026)
Abstract
Fused-adamantane chalcogenidometalate clusters—the largest charge-neutral supertetrahedral clusters reported to date—are constructed via synergistic polyamine–organotin assembly. Exhibiting unprecedented C2v symmetry, excellent solubility, and uniform thin-film formability, these clusters serve as high-performance E-beam resists enabling high-resolution nanopatterning. In the Research Article (e23993), Jian Zhang, Qipu Lin, and co-workers highlight the pivotal role of charge-neutral cluster engineering in advancing nanolithography.
