| Summary: | Abstract
Illumination sources based on phosphor‐converted light emitting diode (pcLED) technology are nowadays of great relevance. In particular, illumination‐grade pcLEDs are attracting increasing attention. Regarding this, the application of a single warm‐white‐emitting phosphor could be of great advantage. Herein, we report the synthesis of a novel nitridophosphate zeolite Ba
