Light up the world with white light from gold. In their Communication on page 13472 ff., D. Li and co‐workers introduce an organic chromophore, thiophene, into a classical trinuclear gold(I) pyrazolate core that gives off aurophilic phosphorescence. The cooperation of dual emissions in the blue–green and orange–red regions underlies this solid‐state white‐light emitter, along with a red‐emitting crystalline polymorph that assists the interpretation of this unusual observation in gold photochemistry.
