Zusammenfassung:The cover picture represents a 60‐atom silicon nanocluster with a diamond‐like structure, within the supercage of zeolite Y. In this article, recent developments in the chemical synthesis of novel and well‐defined nanoscale forms of luminescent silicon are reviewed and the methods used to “trick” silicon (an indirect bandgap semiconductor with electric dipole forbidden luminescence) into emitting light discussed.
