In this paper, we describe the first chiral simple organic molecules (SOMs) capable of simultaneously sustaining significant chemical robustness, high fluorescence quantum yields, and circularly polarized luminescence (CPL) ellipticity levels (|glum|) comparable to those of similar CPL-SOMs. All these parameters altogether enable efficient laser emission and CPLE with ellipticity levels 2 orders of magnitude stronger than the intrinsic CPL ones. %~
