Implication

Narrative review outlines aggregate formation in non-emissive luminogens, demonstrating enhanced luminescence with strong implications for materials science.

Key Points

To define the principles of aggregation-induced emission and characterize the photophysical behavior of molecules that emit light upon clustering.
Reviewed the photophysical framework of aggregation-induced emission first identified in 2001.
Analyzed the transition of luminogens from non-emissive states in solution to emissive states in molecular aggregates.
Aggregate formation triggers light emission in previously non-luminescent compounds, counteracting traditional aggregation-caused quenching.
Molecules displaying aggregation-induced luminescence were classified as AIEgens, analogous to liquid crystal mesogens.
