Cover illustration: In recent years, `Li-stuffed' garnets have gained considerable interest as promising electrolyte materials for all-solid-state Li-ion batteries because of an increased Li-ion mobility. Gallium-substituted lithium lanthanum zirconate (Ga-LLZO), Li6.43Ga0.52La2.67Zr2O12, is such an `Li-stuffed' garnet, with gallium atoms found both on two lithium sites and on the lanthanum position. In contrast to the space group type Iad typically observed for these structures, in the structure of Ga-LLZO a reduction of the symmetry to space group type I
3d is observed. See: Robben, Merzlyakova, Heitjans & Gesing [Acta Cryst. (2016). E72, 287-289].
