Abstract
The design and development of organic solid-state luminescent materials stand as crucial pillars within the realm of contemporary photofunctional materials. Overcoming challenges such as concentration quenching and achieving tailored luminescent properties necessitates a judicious approach to molecular structure design and the strategic utilization of diverse stimuli to modulate molecular packing patterns. Among the myriad candidates, α-cyanodiarylethenes (CAEs) emerge with distinctive solid-state luminescent attributes, capable of forming self-assembled packing structures with varying degrees of π-π stacking. This characteristic endows them with potential in the field of intelligent molecular responsive materials and optoelectronic devices. This tutorial review embarks on an exploration of design strategies geared towards attaining tunable solid-state emission through customized packing of CAEs. It explores the utilization of stimuli responses, including such as mechanical forces, light irradiation, solvent interactions, thermal influences, as well as the utilization of co-assembly methodologies. The overarching aim of this review is to provide a widely applicable platform fostering the flourishing development of modern organic photofunctional materials through integrating principles of molecular engineering, organic optoelectronics, and materials science.

Abstract
In this study, the potential of complex emulsions is investigated as transducers in sensing applications. Complex emulsions are stabilized without external detergents by developing a novel α-cyanostilbene substituted with PEG and semi-perfluoroalkyl chain (CNFCPEG). CNFCPEG exhibits unique variable emission properties depending on its aggregation state, allowing dual blue and green emissions in complex emulsions with hydrocarbon-in-fluorocarbon-in-water (H/F/W) morphology. The green excimer emissions result from the self-assembly of CNFCPEG at the fluorocarbon/water interface, while the blue emission observed is due to aggregation in the organic phase. A novel flow-injection method is developed by incorporating complex emulsions with CNFCPEG into multiple-well flow chips (MWFC). Iodine is successfully detected in a mobile aqueous solution by monitoring morphology changes. The findings demonstrate that self-stabilized complex emulsions with MWFC hold great promise for real-time sensing without costly instruments.

Abstract
The development of high-contrast stimulus-responsive materials with excited triplet emission is of great significance for anti-counterfeiting, sensor and memory applications, but remains a challenge. Here, we report a strategy for the rational design of stimulus-responsive phenothiazine derivatives with triplet-related dual emissions and high-contrast mechanochromism guided by Polymorph Prediction. The designed phenothiazine derivatives have the characters of simple structures, a facile synthetic procedure, and a good crystalline nature. We found that the crystals of those derivatives with the potential to form both quasi-axial (ax) and quasi-equatorial (eq) conformations could undergo conformation transition and show significant emission difference (Δλem >100 nm) under mechanical force. Meanwhile, all these phenothiazine derivatives exhibit aggregation-induced emission and emit room-temperature phosphorescence or thermally activated delayed fluorescence. The significant luminescent change of these materials under different stimuli gives them promise for applications in encryption and anti-counterfeiting.

Abstract
Stimuli-response organic solid-state luminescence switching materials are attracting increasing interest due to their smart photophysical properties. In this study, a morpholine-modified naphthalic anhydride derivative, 4-(4-morpholinyl)naphthalic anhydride (MBC), was synthesized and studied. Its two crystal polymorphs, MBC-G and MBC-O, were obtained under different crystallization conditions. These two distinct crystals show significantly different solid-state luminescence behaviors: a green emission at 535 nm for MBC-G, and an orange emission at 572 nm for MBC-O. Upon fiercely grinding the MBC-G crystal or melting and then quickly cooling it, a phase transition occurs from MBC-G to MBC-O, accompanied by a fluorescence change from green to orange. The reverse transformation from MBC-O to MBC-G can be achieved by recrystallization. The X-ray single crystal structures show that the green emission should be attributed to molecular J-aggregation in the crystal packing, and the orange emission may originate from molecular H-aggregation. This switchable color nature gives MBC the promising candidate for potential smart anti-counterfeiting and light-emitting materials.

Abstract
The regulation of multicolor fluorescence changes in mechanochromic fluorescence (MCF) remains a challenging task. Herein, we report the regulation of MCF using a donor-acceptor structure. Two crystal polymorphs, BTD-pCHO(O) and BTD-pCHO(R) produced by the introduction of formyl groups to an MCF dye, respond to a mechanical stimulus, allowing a three-color fluorescence change. Specifically, the orange-colored fluorescence of the metastable BTD-pCHO(O) polymorph changed to a deep-red color in the amorphous-like state to finally give a red color in the stable BTD-pCHO(R) polymorph. This change occurred by mechanical grinding followed by vapor fuming. The two different crystal packing patterns were selectively regulated by the electronic effect of the introduced functional groups. The two types of selectively formed crystals in BTD(F)-pCHO bearing fluorine atoms, and BTD(OMe)-pCHO bearing methoxy groups, respond to mechanical grinding, allowing for the regulation of multicolor MCL from a three-color change to two different types of two-color changes.

Abstract
Introduction of functional groups that can form intermolecular hydrogen bonds into highly-emissive luminophores is a promising way to induce mechanochromic luminescence. Herein, we report that a 9,10-bis(phenylethynyl)anthracene derivative featuring two amide groups forms green-emissive crystals based on two-dimensional hydrogen-bonded molecular sheets. Mechanical grinding changed the emission from green to yellow, owing to a transition from a crystalline to an amorphous phase. Infrared spectroscopy revealed that mechanical stimuli disrupted the linear hydrogen-bonding formation. A thermal treatment recovered the original green photoluminescence.

Abstract
The mechanoresponsive behavior and photochemical response of a new bis(cyanostyryl)benzene fluorophore (CSB-5) were investigated. Green fluorescence with λem,max of 507 nm was found for CSB-5 in chloroform solution, mirroring the behavior of a previously reported similar dye (CSB-6). Alternatively, crystalline samples of CSB-5 exhibited orange fluorescence with λem,max of 620 nm, attributable to excimer emission. Although the emission color change was not clearly noticeable by naked eye, CSB-5 exhibited mechanochromic luminescence, due to transformation into the amorphous state upon grinding the crystalline powder. Interestingly, rubbed films of CSB-5 prepared on glass substrates exhibited a pronounced emission color change from orange to green when exposed to UV light. This response is the result of a photochemical reaction that occurs in the amorphous state and which causes a decrease of the excimer emission sites so that the emission color changes from excimer to monomer. The crystalline material did not display such a photoinduced emission color change and the difference in photochemical reactivity between crystalline and amorphous states was exploited to pattern the emission color of rubbed films.

Abstract
Previously, we reported that N-2-aryl triazoles (NATs) exhibited good fluorescence activity in the UV/blue light range. In an effort to achieve biocompetitive NAT fluorophores with green/yellow emission, a new class of 4-keto-2-(4'-N,N-diphenyl)-phenyl triazoles were designed and synthesized. Herein, we present our study on these novel fluorophores which demonstrated excellent luminescence emission both in solution (Φ up to 96%) and in the solid state (Φ up to 43%). Furthermore, these new compounds showed aggregation-induced emission (AIE) properties and reversible mechanochromic luminescence properties, which suggested their potential applications in chemical and materials science.

Abstract
A well-known approach toward mechanochromic polymers relies on the incorporation of excimer-forming fluorophores into a matrix polymer and the disruption of aggregated chromophores when such materials undergo macroscopic mechanical deformation. However, the required aggregates and stress-transfer processes have so far only been realized with select dye/polymer combinations. As demonstrated here, the utility of this approach can be extended by tethering an excimer-forming cyano-substituted oligo(p-phenylene vinylene) fluorophore to the two ends of a telechelic poly(ethylene-co-butylene) and blending small amounts (0.1-2 wt%) of the resulting aggregachromic macromolecule into polymer matrices such as poly(ε-caprolactone), poly(isoprene), or poly(styrene-b-butadiene-b-styrene). All blends display mechanofluorochromic responses, and the ratio between the monomer and excimer emission intensities can be used to correlate the luminescence signal to the extent of deformation and to follow subsequent relaxation processes. The developed approach significantly expands the scope of blend-based mechanoresponsive luminescent materials.

Abstract
While mechanochemical transduction principles are omnipresent in nature, mimicking these in artificial materials is challenging. The ability to reliably detect the exposure of man-made objects to mechanical forces is, however, of great interest for many applications, including structural health monitoring and tamper-proof packaging. A useful concept to achieve mechanochromic responses in polymers is the integration of microcapsules, which rupture upon deformation and release a payload causing a visually detectable response. Herein, it is reported that this approach can be used to create mechanochromic fluorescent materials that show a direct and ratiometric response to mechanical deformation. This can be achieved by filling poly(urea-formaldehyde) microcapsules with a solution of a photoluminescent aggregachromic cyano-substituted oligo(p-phenylene vinylene) and embedding these particles in poly(dimethylsiloxane). The application of mechanical force by way of impact, incision, or tensile deformation opens the microcapsules and releases the fluorophore in the damaged area. Due to excimer formation, the subsequent aggregation of the dye furnishes a detectable fluorescence color change. With the emission from unopened microcapsules as built-in reference, the approach affords materials that are self-calibrating. This new concept appears to be readily applicable to a range of polymer matrices and allows for the straightforward assessment of their structural integrity.

Abstract
In the specific context of condensed media, the significant and increasing recent interest in the α-cyanostilbene (CS) motif [ArCHC(CN)Ar] is relevant. These compounds have shown remarkable optical features in addition to interesting electrical properties, and hence they are recognized as very suitable and versatile options for the development of functional materials. This progress report is focused on current and future use of CS structures and molecular assemblies with the aim of exploring and developing for the next generations of functional materials. A critical selection of illustrative materials that contain the CS motif, including relevant subfamilies such as the dicyanodistyrylbenzene and 2,3,3-triphenylacrylonitrile shows how, driven by the self-assembly of CS blocks, a variety of properties, effects, and possibilities for practical applications can be offered to the scientific community, through different rational routes for the elaboration of advanced materials. A survey is provided on the research efforts directed toward promoting the self-assembly of the solid state (polycrystalline solids, thin films, and single crystals), liquid crystals, nanostructures, and gels with multistimuli responsiveness, and applications for sensors, organic light-emitting diodes, organic field effect transistors, organic lasers, solar cells, or bioimaging purposes.

Abstract
The miniaturization of nanometer-sized multicolor fluorescent features is of continuous significance for counterfeit security features, data storage, and sensors. Recent advances in engineering of stimuli-responsive supramolecular polymeric materials that respond upon exposure to heat or mechanical force by changing their fluorescence characteristics open new opportunities as functional lithographic resists. Here, we demonstrate the patterning of a thermochromic supramolecular material by thermal scanning probe lithography (t-SPL), an emerging nanofabrication technique, which allows for ultrafast indentation with a heated probe, resulting in both fluorescent and topographic nanofeatures. t-SPL indentation reveals a linear relationship between the temperature at which material softening occurs and the indentation force in the range from 200 to 500 nN. The softening temperature decreases as the heating time increases from 4 μs to 1 ms, following time-temperature superposition behavior. Our results herein confirm that the fluorescence contrast, perceivable as a shift from red to green, was obtained by kinetic trapping of the dissociated state due to ultrarapid cooling when the probe is removed. We use t-SPL to create highly customized fluorescence patterns up to 40 × 40 μm2 in size with a spatial resolution of 86 nm and change the pitch size to modify the fluorescence intensity when observed by fluorescence microscopy. As an application, multifaceted security features with nanometer resolution are explored.

Abstract
We synthesized two different amphiphilic small molecules 1 and 2 by attaching the same oligo(ethylene glycol) (OEG) unit to the same dicyanodistyrylbenzene (DCS) fluorophore but at different positions. These molecules self-assemble into nanoparticles in water and show lower critical solution temperature (LCST) at 26 and 58 °C, respectively. Upon heating, the transition of hydrophilic coils to hydrophobic globules of the OEG unit leads to the change in the stacking structure of the luminescent DCS cores. As a result, it shows significant ratiometric fluorescence color changes from excimeric yellow emission to monomer-dominated green emission. Interestingly, the coassembly of 1 and 2 exhibits single transition temperature between the transition temperatures of the two components. Moreover, it is demonstrated that the transition temperature of the coassembly is delicately tuned over 26-58 °C by varying the molar mixing ratio of them.
