We report a metal‐free bpy‐bridged silsesquioxane displaying an efficient and tuneable blue‐to‐green emission (maximum quantum yield and luminance values of 0.22 ± 0.02 cd m –2 and 63 ± 3 cd m –2 , respectively) when excited by commercial InGaN light emitting diodes (LEDs) (385–405 nm). This is the highest quantum yield value reported so far for metal‐free phosphors easily excited by commercial InGaN long‐UV/blue LEDs bringing organic/inorganic hybrids on the way to applications as metal‐free phosphors for smart LED‐based lighting and LED‐addressed displays.
