Z. T. Liu, G. X. Zhang, S.‐X. Liu, D. Q. Zhang, and co‐workers report a new cruciform donor–acceptor molecule, BDFTM, exhibiting both remarkable solid‐state red emission and p‐type semiconducting behavior. On page 4250, crystalline microrods and microplates of BDFTM show typical optical waveguiding behaviors with a rather low optical loss co‐efficient. Notably, an organic field‐effect transistor with a thin film of BDFTM is successfully utilized for the highly sensitive and selective detection of H 2 S gas, down to ppb levels.
