Liquid crystals shining bright . A highly efficient platinum(II) luminophore is rendered liquid crystalline using a simple and flexible synthetic approach. Ordering in the liquid‐crystalline state allows monomer emission when the characteristic for the material is exciplex‐like emission. More than that, emission characteristics are subject to tribological control, with the initial state re‐obtained by thermal cycling.
