The simple combination of a weak magnetic field with turbulent flow during material synthesis results in significantly improved crystalline order and morphology, obtained by mounting a permanent magnet on a tube system. This newly discovered magneto‐hydrodynamic effect is demonstrated by C. E. A. Kirschhock, E. Breynaert and co‐workers on page 5173 for three technologically relevant materials: COK‐16 metal organic frameworks, manganese oxide nanotubes, and vanadium oxide nanoscrolls.
