AIE luminogens: emission brightened by aggregation

Abstract

Luminogens with the feature of aggregation-induced emission (AIE) are a class of ‘heterodox’ molecules, whose emissions are brightened by aggregate formation. The restriction of their intramolecular motions in an aggregate state is the main cause of the AIE process. In this account, we summarize recent progress in exploring high-tech applications of AIE luminogens (AIEgens) as biological sensors, chemical probes, optoelectronic devices, and intelligent materials. Our discussion is focused on mechanistic analysis, classifying the electronic interactions involved into three categories: (a) through-bond, (b) through-space, and (c) through-bond and -space conjugations. Such a mechanistic understanding will help guide further development of new AIEgens and their applications.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
