A glowing endorsement : Arranging zeolite L crystals into luminescent macroscopic structures allows preparation of dense, homogeneous, well‐oriented, stable, and highly organized functional monolayers (see picture). The color of the luminescence of the resulting layers can be fine‐tuned by changing the type and number of lanthanide ions coordinated to the linker, the guest inside the channels of the zeolite host, and the excitation wavelength.
