Abstract
Guest neutrality refuted: Recent claims of near charge neutrality of the guest metal atoms in A8Ga16Ge30 (A=Sr,Ba) clathrates (see picture) are contradicted by the present ab initio study, which used periodical DFT calculations and atoms in molecules analysis. This work demonstrates that the guest atoms are almost completely ionized and confirm that they act as charge donors in these clathrates, which show promising thermoelectric properties. Thus, this theoretical picture is fully consistent with the Zintl-phase view that structural chemists have of these systems.
