Firefly‐like persistent luminescence nanoparticles for accurate imaging guided tumor surgery are reported by Gang Han and co‐workers in their Research Article on page 15886. Organic dye molecules act as “wings” and can be conjugated with persistent luminescence nanoparticles. Such dye‐sensitized nanoparticles emit boosted afterglow signals for a long period of time without the need for additional light input, reminiscent of a firefly.
