The Cover Feature shows a section of the crystal structure of the new MOF named Sc‐CAU‐11 (CAU = Christian‐Albrechts‐University), which crystallizes in a layered structure with intralayer porosity. The viewer is inside the pore and sees a chain of trans corner‐sharing ScO 6 polyhedra, which are connected via V‐shaped linker molecules. The linker molecules are surrounded by blue light, which symbolizes the ligand‐based blue photoluminescence of this compound. A sphere in one polyhedron shines in red light, representing the emission of Eu 3+ ions, which can be incorporated by formal substitution of Sc 3+ ions.
