Abstract
Light-driven rotary molecular motors are among the most promising classes of responsive molecular machines and take advantage of their intrinsic chirality which governs unidirectional rotation. As a consequence of their dynamic function, they receive considerable interest in the areas of supramolecular chemistry, asymmetric catalysis and responsive materials. Among the emerging classes of responsive photochromic molecules, multistate first-generation molecular motors driven by benign visible light remain unexplored, which limits the exploitation of the full potential of these mechanical light-powered systems. Herein, we describe a series of all-visible-light-driven first-generation molecular motors based on the salicylidene Schiff base functionality. Remarkable redshifts up to 100 nm in absorption are achieved compared to conventional first-generation motor structures. Taking advantage of all-visible-light-driven multistate motor scaffolds, adaptive behaviour is found as well, and potential application in multistate photoluminescence is demonstrated. These functional visible-light-responsive motors will likely stimulate the design and synthesis of more sophisticated nanomachinery with a myriad of future applications in powering dynamic systems.

Mechanochemical Fabrication of Full-Color Luminescent Materials from Aggregation-Induced Emission Prefluorophores for Information Storage and Encryption. J Am Chem Soc 2024; 146:18350-18359.

Abstract
The development of luminescent materials via mechanochemistry embodies a compelling yet intricate frontier within materials science. Herein, we delineate a methodology for the synthesis of brightly luminescent polymers, achieved by the mechanochemical coupling of aggregation-induced emission (AIE) prefluorophores with generic polymers. An array of AIE moieties tethered to the 2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidine-1-oxyl (TEMPO) radical are synthesized as prefluorophores, which initially exhibit weak fluorescence due to intramolecular quenching. Remarkably, the mechanical coupling of these prefluorophores with macromolecular radicals, engendered through ball milling of generic polymers, leads to substantial augmentation of fluorescence within the resultant polymers. We meticulously evaluate the tunable emission of the AIE-modified polymers, encompassing an extensive spectrum from the visible to the near-infrared region. This study elucidates the potential of such materials in stimuli-responsive systems with a focus on information storage and encryption displays. By circumventing the complexity inherent to the conventional synthesis of luminescent polymers, this approach contributes a paradigm to the field of AIE-based polymers with implications for advanced technological applications.

Abstract
The interactive flexible device, which monitors the human motion in optical and electrical synergistic modes, has attracted growing attention recently. The incorporation of information attribute within the optical signal is deemed advantageous for improving the interactive efficiency. Therefore, the development of wearable optical information-electronic strain sensors holds substantial promise, but integrating and synergizing various functions and realizing strain-mediated information transformation keep challenging. Herein, an amylopectin (AP) modified nanoclay/polyacrylamide-based nanocomposite (NC) hydrogel and an aggregation-induced-emission-active ink are fabricated. Through the fluorescence-transfer printing of the ink onto the hydrogel film in different strains with nested multiple symbolic information, a wearable interactive fluorescent information-electronic strain sensor is developed. In the sensor, the nanoclay plays a synergistic "one-stone-three-birds" role, contributing to "lightening" fluorescence (≈80 times emission intensity enhancement), ionic conductivity, and excellent stretchability (>1000%). The sensor has high biocompatibility, resilience (elastic recovery ratio: 97.8%), and strain sensitivity (gauge factor (GF): 10.9). Additionally, the AP endows the sensor with skin adhesiveness. The sensor can achieve electrical monitoring of human joint movements while displaying interactive fluorescent information transformation. This research poses an efficient strategy to develop multifunctional materials and provides a general platform for achieving next-generation interactive devices with prospective applications in wearable devices, human-machine interfaces, and artificial intelligence.

Abstract
Lanthanide-containing nanomaterials have gained significant popularity for their utilization in polymeric networks, enabling the creation of luminescent nanocomposites for advanced applications. In this study, we developed a new type of lanthanide-containing nanocomposite hydrogels by incorporating terbium-containing laponite (Tb3+@Lap) into the networks of polyethyleneimine-modified gelatin/polydextran aldehyde (PG/PDA) through dynamic bonds. The structures and properties of the Tb3+@Lap-containing nanocomposite double-network (ncDN) hydrogels were comprehensively investigated in comparison with the DN hydrogels with a pure polymeric network and the Lap-containing ncDN hydrogels. The PG/PDA/Tb3+@Lap ncDN hydrogels with multiple dynamic bonds (i.e., imine bonds, coordination bonds, hydrogen bonds, and electrostatic interactions) exhibited remarkable characteristics of shear-thinning and self-healing, making them suitable for the construction of hydrogel scaffolds on a macroscale using fabrication techniques such as electrospinning and 3D printing. Moreover, the PG/PDA/Tb3+@Lap ncDN hydrogels have been demonstrated to act as sensitive and selective luminescent sensors for detecting copper ions. Taken together, a versatile lanthanide-containing ncDN hydrogel platform capable of dynamic features is developed for processing and sensing applications.

Abstract
To meet the requirements of biomedical applications in the antibacterial realm, it is of great importance to explore nano-antibiotics for wound disinfection that can prevent the development of drug resistance and possess outstanding biocompatibility. Therefore, we attempted to synthesize an atomically dispersed ion (Fe) on phenolic carbon quantum dots (CQDs) combined with an organic photothermal agent (PTA) (Fe@SAC CQDs/PTA) via a hydrothermal/ultrasound method. Fe@SAC CQDs adequately exerted peroxidase-like activity while the PTA presented excellent photothermal conversion capability, which provided enormous potential in antibacterial applications. Based on our work, Fe@SAC CQDs/PTA exhibited excellent eradication of Escherichia coli (>99% inactivation efficiency) and Staphylococcus aureus (>99% inactivation efficiency) based on synergistic chemodynamic therapy (CDT) and photothermal therapy (PTT). Moreover, in vitro experiments demonstrated that Fe@SAC CQDs/PTA could inhibit microbial growth and promote bacterial biofilm destruction. In vivo experiments suggested that Fe@SAC CQDs/PTA-mediated synergistic CDT and PTT exhibited great promotion to wound disinfection and recovery effects. This work indicated that Fe@SAC CQDs/PTA could serve as a broad-spectrum antimicrobial nano-antibiotic, which was simultaneously beneficial for bacterial biofilm eradication, wound disinfection, and wound healing.

Abstract
Information storage and security is one of the perennial hot issues in society, while the further advancements of related chemical anti-counterfeiting systems remain a formidable challenge. As emerging anti-counterfeiting materials, stimulus-responsive polymers (SRPs) have attracted extensive attention due to their unique stimulus-responsiveness and charming discoloration performance. At the same time, single-channel decryption technology with low-security levels has been unable to effectively prevent information from being stolen or mimicked. As a result, it would be of great significance to develop SRPs with multi-mode and multi-level anti-counterfeiting characteristics. This study summarizes the latest achievements in advance anti-counterfeiting strategies based on SRPs, including multi-mode anti-counterfeiting (static information) and multi-level anti-counterfeiting (dynamic information). In addition, the promising applications of such materials in anti-counterfeiting labels, identification platforms, intelligent displays, and others are briefly reviewed. Finally, the challenges and opportunities in this emerging field are discussed. This review serves as a useful resource for manipulating SRP-based anti-counterfeiting materials and creating cutting-edge information security and encryption systems.

Abstract
The study of aggregate formation and its controllable effect on luminescence behavior has a far-reaching influence in establishing a universal aggregation photophysical mechanism. In this paper, we obtained clusters with different extents of aggregation by heat-induced or light-triggered aggregation of a new polyurethane derivative (PUE). The controllable regulation of multicolor fluorescence of a single (nondoped) polymeric material is realized. The luminescence behavior of PUE varies with microscopic control of the aggregation structure. Compared with the powder state, the enhanced atom-atom and group-group interactions of PUE-gel effectively limit the nonradiative transitions in the excited state and result in a red-shift in emission. This work avoids complex organic synthesis and demonstrates a simple strategy to induce aggregation and regulate the emitting color of macromolecules, providing a template for developing new materials for multicolor fluorescence. In addition, a pattern was constructed with encryption, anticounterfeiting, and information transmission functions which provide a proof-of-concept demonstration of the practical potential of PUE as a smart material.

Abstract
Information encryption technologies are very important for security, health, commodity, and communications, etc. Novel information encryption mechanisms and materials are desired to achieve multimode and reprogrammable encryption. Here, a supramolecular strategy is demonstrated to achieve multimodal, erasable, reprogrammable, and reusable information encryption by reversibly modulating fluorescence. A butyl-naphthalimide with flexible ethylenediamine functionalized β-cyclodextrin (N-CD) is utilized as a fluorescent responsive ink for printing or patterning information on polymer brushes with dangling adamantane group grafted on responsive hydrogels. The photoluminescent naphthalimide moiety is bonded to β-CD and entrapped in the cavity. Its fluorescence is highly weakened in β-CD cavity and recovers after being expelled from the cavity by a competing guest molecule to emit bright green photoluminescence under UV. Experiments and theoretical calculations suggest π-π stacking and ICT as the primary mechanism for the naphthalimides assembly and fluorescence, which can be quenched through insertion of conjugated molecules and recover by removing the insert. Such reversible quenching and recovering are used to achieve repeated writing, erasing, and re-writing of information. Supramolecular recognition and hydrogel shape memory are further combined to achieve reversible dual-encryption. This study provides a novel strategy to develop smart materials with improved information security for broad applications.

Abstract
We detail the synthesis of a series of fluorophores containing triphenylamine derivatives along with their photophysical, electrochemical, and electronic structure properties. These compounds include molecular structures derived from imino-phenol (anil) and hydroxybenzoxazole scaffolds originating from similar salicylaldehyde derivatives and display excited-state intramolecular proton transfer. We show that depending on the nature of the π-conjugated scaffold, different photophysical processes are observed: aggregation-induced emission or dual-state emission, with a modulation of the fluorescence color and redox properties. The photophysical properties are further rationalized with the help of ab initio calculations.

Abstract
Utilization of rewritable luminescent materials for secure information storage and delivery has long been envisaged to reduce the cost and environmental wastes. However, it remains challenging to realize a temporally/spatially controlled display of the written information, which is crucial for secure information encryption. Here, inspired by bioelectricity-triggered skin pattern switching in cephalopods, an ideal rewritable system consisting of conductive graphene film and carbon dots (CDs) gel with blue-to-red fluorescence-color changes via water-triggered CDs aggregation and re-dispersion is presented. Its rewritability is guaranteed by using water ink to write on the CDs-gel and employing Joule heat of graphene film to evaporate water. Due to the highly controlled electrical stimulus, temporally/spatially controlled display is achieved, enabling on-demand delivery and duration time regulation of the written information. Furthermore, new-concept environment-interactive rewritable system is obtained by integrating sensitive acoustic/optical sensors and multichannel electronic time-delay devices. This work opens unprecedented avenues of rewritable systems and expands potential uses for information encryption/delivery.

Abstract
Fluorescence-guided phototherapy, including photodynamic and photothermal therapy, is considered an emerging noninvasive strategy for cancer treatments. Organic molecules are promising theranostic agents because of their facile construction, simple modification, and good biocompatibility. Organic systems that integrated multifunctionalities in a single component and achieved high efficiency in both imaging and therapies are rarely reported as the inherently competitive energy relaxation pathways are hard to modulate, and fluorescence quenching occurs upon molecular aggregation. Herein, a versatile theranostic platform with near-infrared emission, high fluorescence quantum yield, robust reactive oxygen species production, and excellent photothermal conversion efficiency was developed based on an aggregation-induced emission luminogen, namely, TPA-TBT. In vivo studies revealed that the TPA-TBT nanoaggregates exhibit outstanding photodynamic and photothermal therapy efficacy to ablate tumors inoculated in a mouse model. This work offers a design strategy to develop one-for-all cancer theranostic agents by modulating and utilizing the relaxation energy of excitons in full.

Abstract
One-step photopolymerization and photochromism of clusteroluminescence (CL) polymers mean that the polymer materials can be prepared on a large scale and applied widely. Herein, we reported unique photochromic CL polymers prepared by one-step radical photopolymerization. Seven copolymerized films (PMAxBA) with methyl acrylate and butyl acrylate as monomers, a cross-linked PMA (PMA-CL) film, a double-network PMAPBA film based on the first network PMA-CL, and four PMA films with increasing content of photoinitiator ethoxy benzoin (BEE) were prepared to study CL formation and transition. Experimental results prove that increasing the ratio of the PMA chains in PMAxBA enhances the photochromic effect, which verifies the main role of PMA chains with the shorter branched alkanes. Surprisingly, cross-linking in PMA-CL strengthens interchain packing and interchain through-space interactions (TSIs), leading to the formation of larger clusters and further CL redshift from 410 to 491 nm, whereas the PBA chains filled in the cross-linked network weakens interchain TSIs among PMA chains and makes CL red shift from 410 to 472 nm. In addition, as the BEE content increases in the PMA films, a higher radical concentration also promotes the formation of TSIs and clusters, which benefits the photochromism. For applications, colorless, dissolvable, and thermoplastic PMA featuring photochromism in this case can be widely used in information loading, rewriting, and multifunctional coating. This work provides a new strategy to enrich the properties of CL polymers toward diverse applications.

Abstract
Advanced materials with high performance and distinctive function are one of the main driving forces for the development of human society. The selection of appropriate materials and adequately utilizing their features to apply them in a specific area rationally are of great significance but remain challenging. Herein, an aggregation-induced emission (AIE)-active nanocomposite (NC) hydrogel is developed by introducing a pH-responsive AIE luminogen (AIEgen) into a Laponite XLS/polyacrylamide-based NC hydrogel (Laponite is a trademark of the company BYK Additives Ltd.). The AIEgen can protonate to interact with the negatively charged clay through the electrostatic interaction, which results in a drastic fluorescence enhancement due to the restriction of intramolecular motion by the rigid clay to the protonated AIEgen. This behavior facilitates the input of fluorescent information with a high contrast ratio in the hydrogel by acid stimulation. Moreover, by utilizing the excellent resilience of the hydrogel, hierarchically inputting and displaying the information in the original and stretched states of the hydrogel film is realized, which achieves information-storage expansion and dual-encryption via switching between stretching and restoring the film. This work showcases fully and synergistically utilizing the superiorities of various advanced materials to achieve superior applications and should guide the future development of advanced materials in emerging areas.

Abstract
Dynamic covalent polymers, composed of dynamic covalent bonds (DCBs), have received increasing attention in the last decade due to their adaptive and reversible nature compared with common covalent linked polymers. Incorporating the DCBs into the polymeric material endows it with advanced performance including self-healing, shape memory property, and so forth. However, the emissive ability of such dynamic covalent polymeric materials has been rarely reviewed. Herein, this review has summarized DCBs-based emissive polymeric materials which are classified according to the different types of DCBs, including imine bond, acylhydrazone bond, boronic ester bond, dynamic C-C bond, as well as the reversible bonds based on Diels–Alder reaction and transesterification. The mechanism of chemical reactions and various stimuli-responsive behaviors of DCBs are introduced, followed by typical emissive polymers resulting from these DCBs. By taking advantage of the reversible nature of DCBs under chemical/physical stimuli, the constructed emissive polymeric materials show controllable and switchable emission. Finally, challenges and future trends in this field are briefly discussed in this review.

Abstract
The photoelastic effect has many uses in mechanics today, but it is usually disregarded in flexible materials. Using 2-phenoxyethyl acrylate as a monomer and 4-cyano-4'-pentylbiphenyl (5CB) as a solvent, a multiple responsive photoelastic organogel (PO) with strong birefringence but low modulus is created. 5CB is a liquid crystal molecule that does not participate in the polymerization process and is always present as tiny molecules in the polymer. It endows the PO low modulus and high birefringence, as well as the ability to drive the birefringence using an electric field. This PO not only has high sensitivity and fast response as a photoelastic strain sensor, but also has a very sensitive response to heat, especially in the range of human body temperature. It also has a high dielectric constant and a strong correlation between the interference color and the applied electric field, allowing for easy writing and erasure of encrypted data. This unique multisignal response feature and low modulus that mimics human skin bring up new opportunities in the potential applications such as multiple information encryption, anticounterfeiting, and multifunctional wearable sensors.

Abstract
The emergence of powerful antibiotic-resistant bacteria caused by the abuse of antibiotics has become a public health problem. Photodynamic antibacterial therapy is regarded as an innovative and promising antibacterial approach due to its minor side effects and lack of drug resistance. Nevertheless, few photosensitizers (PSs) are reported to have near-infrared (NIR) emission, the ability to rapidly discriminate bacteria, and high photodynamic antibacterial efficiency. In this study, it is reported for the first time that a water-soluble NIR fluorescence emission rhodamine-based photosensitizer with aggregation-inducing emission (AIE) effects, referred to as CS-2I, can efficiently identify and kill Gram-positive bacteria. In a fluorescence imaging experiment with blended bacteria, CS-2I can selectively target Gram-positive bacteria and specifically label Gram-positive bacteria with high efficiency after only 5 min of incubation. Furthermore, CS-2I achieves complete inhibition of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) at an extremely low concentration (0.5 µm) and light dosage (6 J cm-2 ). Remarkably, CS-2I is mixed with Carbomer 940 to prepare an antibacterial hydrogel dressing (CS-2I@gel), and in vitro and in vivo results demonstrate that CS-2I@gel provides extraordinary performance in photodynamic antibacterial therapy. Hence, this study provides a new strategy and blueprint for the future design of antibacterial materials.

Abstract
The development of advanced materials for information encryption with time-dependent features is essential to meet the increasing demand on encryption security. Herein, smart materials with orthogonal and temporal encryption properties are successfully developed based on a dynamic assembly-induced multicolour supramolecular system. Multicolour fluorescence, including blue, orange and even white light emissions, is achieved by controlling the supramolecular assembly of pyrene derivatives by tailoring the solvent composition. By taking advantage of the tuneable fluorescence, dynamically controlled information encryption materials with orthogonal encryption functions, e.g., 3D codes, are successfully developed. Moreover, time-dependent information encryption materials, such as temporal multi-information displays and 4D codes, are also developed by enabling the fluorescence-controllable supramolecular system in the solid phase, showing multiple pieces of information on a time scale, and the correct information can be identified only at a specified time. This work provides an inspiring point for the design of information encryption materials with higher security requirements.

Abstract
Long-lived room temperature phosphorescence (RTP) materials are widely utilized in the field of biological and chemical sensing, due to their unique characteristics of long-lived luminescence and no background autofluorescence. However, the realization of full-color RTP in aqueous solution still remains a great challenge. Herein, a feasible strategy for achieving high stability and full-color RTP of carbon dots (CDs)-based composite materials in aqueous environment is reported by constructing a rigid hydrogen bonds' network. The obtained m,p-CDs@CA composite materials exhibit deep-blue RTP with phosphorescence quantum yield of 23.2% and lifetime of 1.74 s, and the afterglow can last for over 12 s. More importantly, the m,p-CDs@CA composite materials are desirable in the detection of biomarkers, because of excellent stability, dispersion, and long-lived RTP properties. The m,p-CDs@CA suspension also displays excellent sensitivity, and a limitation of detection as low as 5.61 and 550 nm for biomarkers 5-hydroxyindole-3-acetic acid (HIAA) and serotonin (5-hydroxytryptamine, HT), respectively. Meanwhile, the sensing performance exhibits excellent selectivity even in the presence of other competitive species in blood plasma and urine. With superior selectivity, the long-lived phosphorescence probe based on m,p-CDs@CA suspension can be as an effective biomarker for carcinoid identification, which has potential application in clinical analysis.

Abstract
The proposal of the aggregation-induced emission (AIE) effect shines a light on the practical application of luminescent materials. The AIE-active luminescence microgels (TPEC MGs) with photo-induced color-changing behavior were developed by integrating positively charged AIE luminogens (AIEgens) into the anionic network of microgels, where AIEgens of TPEC were obtained from the quaternization reaction between tetra-(4-pyridylphenyl)ethylene (TPE-4Py) and 7-(6-bromohexyloxy)-coumarin. The aqueous suspensions of TPEC MGs exhibit a significant AIE effect following the enhancement of quantum yield. In addition, further increase in fluorescence intensity and blueshift occur at elevated temperatures due to the collapse of microgels. The distinctive photochromic behavior of TPEC MGs was observed, which presents as the transition from orange-yellow to blue-green color under UV irradiation, which is different from TPEC in good organic solvents. The phenomenon of color changing can be ascribed to the competition between photodimerization of the coumarin part and photocyclization of TPE-4Py in TPEC. The photochromic TPEC MG aqueous suspensions can be conducted as aqueous microgel inks for information display, encryption, and dynamic anticounterfeiting.

Abstract
Organic ultralong room temperature phosphorescence (OURTP) materials having stimuli-responsive attributes have attracted great attention due to their great potential in a wide variety of advanced applications. It is of fundamental importance but challengeable to develop stimuli-responsive OURTP materials, especially such materials with modulated optoelectronic properties in a controlled manner probably due to the lack of an authentic construction approach. Here, we propose an effective strategy for OURTP materials with controllably regulated stimuli-responsive properties by engineering the resonance linkage between flexible chain and phosphor units. A quantitative parameter to demonstrate the stimuli-responsive capacity is also established by the responsivity rate constant. The designed OURTP materials demonstrate efficient photoactivated OURTP with lifetimes up to 724 ms and tunable responsivity rate constants ranging from 0.132 to 0.308 min-1 upon continuous UV irradiation. Moreover, the applications of stimuli-responsive resonance OURTP materials have been illustrated by the rewritable paper for snapshot and Morse code for multiple information encryption. Our works, which enable the accomplishment of OURTP materials capable of on-demand manipulated optical properties, demonstrate a viable design to explore smart OURTP materials, giving deep insights into the dynamically stimuli-responsive process.

Abstract
Development of soft actuators with complex practical functions is significant for imitating the behaviors of living organisms. However, it is still a challenge to fabricate artificial soft actuators with jellyfish-like synergistic deformation and fluorescence color change (SDFC) and autonomous dynamic behavior, but such a system could obviously endow the classic soft actuators with more functions. Herein, we proposed to utilize tetra(4-pyridylphenyl)ethylene (TPE-4N) luminogen with pH-responsive aggregation-induced emission (AIE) to fabricate the AIE active hydrogel, which could be further employed to obtain an anisotropic bilayer soft actuator based on strong interfacial adhesion with acrylic acid (AA) gels. Furthermore, artificial flower-shape actuators showing SDFC behaviors were demonstrated. On the basis of these findings, jellyfish-inspired autonomous gel actuators driven by a pH oscillator have been fabricated, in which periodical SDFC behaviors completely regulated by the system itself without repetitive on/off switches of external stimuli were well synchronized with the pH oscillator. The described combination of nonlinear chemistry and responsive hydrogels actuator opens pathways toward out-of-equilibrium SDFC devices with autonomous behavior useful for biomimetic fields.

Abstract
Lymphatic system is identified the second vascular system after the blood circulation in mammalian species, however the research on lymphatic system has long been hampered by the lack of comprehensive imaging modality. Nanomaterials have shown the potential to enhance the quality of lymphatic imaging due to the unparalleled advantages such as the specific passive targeting and efficient co-delivery of cocktail to peripheral lymphatic system, ease molecular engineering for precise active targeting and prolonged retention in the lymphatic system of interest. Multimodal lymphatic imaging based on nanotechnology provides a complementary means to understand the kinetics of lymphoid tissues and quantify its function. In this review, we introduce the established approaches of lymphatic imaging used in clinic and summarize their strengths and weaknesses, and list the critical influence factors on lymphatic imaging. Meanwhile, the recent developments in the field of pre-clinical lymphatic imaging are discussed to shed new lights on the design of new imaging agents, the improvement of delivery methods and imaging-guided surgery strategies.
