Regulation of Multicolor Fluorescence Changes Found in Donor-acceptor-type Mechanochromic Fluorescent Dyes

Mechanochromic aromatic hydrocarbons that bear one simple substituent

Structurally simple aromatic hydrocarbons that possess only one isocyano group show luminescent mechanochromism. The structural isomers of these aromatic hydrocarbons exhibit blue- and red-shifted emission bands upon mechanical stress. Their low molecular weight enables their sublimation under mild conditions.

Luminescent polymorphic crystals: mechanoresponsive and multicolor-emissive properties

Polymorphic organic crystals that can switch their photophysical properties in response to mechanical stimuli are highlighted.

[1]Benzothieno[3,2-b][1]benzothiophene-Based Dyes: Effect of Ancillary Moiety on Mechanochromism and Aggregation-Induced Emission

It is an established fact that [1]benzothieno[3,2-b][1]benzothiophene (BTBT) is a champion molecule for high mobility OFETs devices. Recently it is also utilized in dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSCs) and organic photovoltaics...
