Mimicking biological proton pumps to achieve stimuli‐responsive protonic solids has long been of great interest for their diverse applications in fuel cells, chemical sensors, and bio‐electronic devices. Now, dynamic light‐responsive metal–organic framework hybrid membranes can be obtained by in sit...
