The Cover Feature shows how chiral silica, which is modified by silane coupling with amino or phenyl groups, can act as a chiral host to activate organic and inorganic achiral luminescent guests so that they become chiroptical. These guests can thus efficiently emit circularly polarized luminescence (CPL) upon excitation. More information can be found in the Full Paper by R.‐H. Jin, T. Nakashima, and co‐workers (DOI: 10.1002/cplu.201900615).
