Abstract
Blue luminogens play a vital role in white lighting and potential metal-free fluorescent materials and their high-lying excited states contribute to harvesting triplet excitons in devices. However, in TADF-OLEDs (ΔEST < 0.1 eV), although T1 excitons transfer to S1via RISC with 100% IQE, the longer lifetime of blue TADF suffers from efficiency roll-off (RO). In this case, hybridized local and charge transfer (HLCT) materials have attracted significant interest in lighting owing to their 100% hot exciton harvesting and enhanced efficiency. Both academics and industrialists widely use the HLCT strategy to improve the efficiency of fluorescent organic light-emitting diodes (FOLEDs) by harvesting dark triplet excitons through the RISC process. Aggregation-induced emissive materials (AIEgens) possess tight packing in the aggregation state, and twisted AIEgens with HLCT behaviour have a shortened conjugation length, inducing blue emission and making them suitable candidates for OLED applications. TTA-OLEDs are used in commercial BOLEDs because of their moderate efficiency and reasonable operation lifetime. In this review, we discuss the devices based on TTA fluorophores, TADF fluorophores, HLCT fluorophores, AIEgens and HLCT-sensitized fluorophores (HLCT-SF), which break through the statistical limitations.

Mechanofluorochromic behaviors and data security protection properties of salicylaldimine-based difluoroboron complexes with different aryl substituents. LUMINESCENCE 2024; 39:e4729.

Abstract
To further explore the relationship between aryl substituents and mechanofluorochromic (MFC) behaviors, four salicylaldimine-based difluoroboron complexes (ts-Ph BF2, ts-Ph-NA BF2, ts-2NA BF2, and ts-triphenylamine [TPA] BF2), including aromatic substituents with different steric hindrance effects, were designed and successfully synthesized. Four complexes with twisted molecular conformation displayed intramolecular charge transfer and aggregation-induced emission properties. Under external mechanical stimuli, the as-synthesized powders of ts-Ph BF2, ts-Ph-NA BF2, and ts-TPA BF2 exhibited redshift fluorescence emission behaviors, and ts-Ph BF2 and ts-TPA BF2 could be recovered to original shifts by fuming, but ts-Ph-NA BF2 displayed irreversible switching. ts-2NA BF2 had no change during the grinding and fuming processes. The results indicated that the MFC behaviors could be attributed to the phase transformation between the well-defined crystalline and disordered amorphous states by X-ray diffraction measurement. Further research illustrated that ts-TPA BF2 with the most significant MFC phenomenon could be applied in data security protection in ink-free rewritable paper.

Abstract
In the treatment process of cancers like oral cancer, it is necessary to employ extensive surgical resection to achieve cancer eradication. However, this often results in damage to crucial functions such as chewing and speaking, leading to a poorer prognosis and a reduced quality of life. To address this issue, a multifunctional theranostic agent named MBPN-T-BTD has been developed by precisely modulating the excitation state energy distribution in the radiative/nonradiative decay pathways using the characteristics of twisted intramolecular charge transfer and aggregation-induced emission. This agent outperforms clinically utilized indocyanine green (ICG) in various aspects, including the second near-infrared window (NIR-II, 1000-1700 nm) fluorescence (FL) and photothermal conversion efficiency (PCE). Its nanoparticle form (BTB NPs) can be effectively used for high-contrast delineation of lymph node mapping and tongue and floor of mouth cancers using NIR-II FL, enabling surgeons to achieve more precise and thorough tumor clearance. For tumors located in close proximity to vital organs such as the tongue, the exceptional PCE (71.96%) of BTB NPs allows for targeted photothermal ablation with minimal damage to peripheral healthy tissues. This contribution provides a safer and more effective paradigm for minimally invasive or noninvasive treatment of oral cancer, ensuring the preservation of normal organ functions and showing potential for improving the overall prognosis and quality of life for cancer patients.

Abstract
The excited-state proton transfer (ESIPT) behavior of organic fluorophores has attracted much attention due to their unique photophysical properties. So far, ESIPT studies have mainly focused on the transfer of hydrogen atoms between N-N, N-O, or O-O. In this work, a brand-new type of ESIPT molecule based on sulfoxide/sulfenic acid tautomerism has been thoroughly investigated. The sulfoxide/sulfenic acid tautomerization process requires one step and two steps in the ground and first excited singlet states, respectively. A range of density functional theory and time-dependent density functional theory methods have been employed to investigate these structures, and the changes in aromaticity may be responsible for obtaining the ESIPT process. This work presents a novel ESIPT process, showcasing molecules that exhibit distinctive properties compared to conventional ESIPT compounds. These findings are expected to expand the horizons of experimental research in ESIPT.

Abstract
Aggregation-induced emission luminogens (AIEgens) have recently been developed at a tremendous pace in the area of organic luminescent materials by virtue of their superior properties. However, the practical applications of AIEgens still face the challenge of transforming AIEgens from molecules into materials. Till now, many AIEgens have been integrated into fiber, endowing the fiber with prominent fluorescence and/or photosensitizing capacities. AIEgens and fiber complement each other for making progress in flexible smart materials, in which the utilization of AIEgens creates new application possibilities for fiber, and the fiber provides an excellent carrier for AIEgens towards realizing the conversion from molecule to materials and an ideal platform to research the aggregate state of AIEgens in mesoscale and macroscale. This review begins with a brief summary of the recent advances related to some typical AIEgens with various functions and the technology for the fabrication of AIEgen-functionalized fiber. The most representative applications are then highlighted by focusing on energy conversion, personal protective equipment, biomedical, sensor, and fluorescence-related fields. Finally, the challenges, opportunities, and tendencies in future development are discussed in detail. This review hopes to inspire innovation in AIEgens and fiber from the view of mesoscale and macroscale.

Blue Emission of Tetrafluorobenzocarbazole Under the Interactions of Nitrogen–oxygen Saturated hydrogen Bonds with Aggregated Proton Acid. J Fluoresc 2022; 33:895-910.

Abstract
Two novel tetrafluorobenzocarbazole and containing the amino branch introduced at the end of the molecule are synthesized by a simple method. The tetrafluorobenzocarbazole as the electron donor with electron-rich fluoride ions connected by π-benzyl ring conjugation structure, which affects the overall electron cloud density. Moreover, the amino branch introduced at the end of the molecule, which makes it easy to form intermolecular hydrogen bonds and affected photophysical properties. Meanwhile, the photophysical property of both compounds are discussed under different acidic conditions. The UV-absorption show that around ~286 nm is mainly attributed to the strong structural absorption band peak of the π-π ∗ transition of the carbazole moiety, and the irregular absorption band around ~314 nm and ~326 nm are mainly attributed to the n-π ∗ transition of the carbazole group conjugate with the adjacent molecule. The emission spectrum of both compounds showed that the intensity of fluorescence decreased in different degrees after the addition of the acidic solution. Furthermore, the electrochemical properties were evidenced by cyclic voltammetry (CV) and density functional theory (DFT) calculations, and the orbital conformation (HOMOs-LUMOs) was simulated by Gaussian 09 software and its crystal structure was observed by X-ray diffraction (XRD). The results exhibited that both compounds are electrochemically stable blue small-molecule fluorescent substances, and expected that both compounds can be novel and stable acid-sensitive organic blue-light materials.

Abstract
Here, we report an approach to the synthesis of highly charged enantiopure cyclophanes by the insertion of axially chiral enantiomeric binaphthyl fluorophores into the constitutions of pyridinium-based macrocycles. Remarkably, these fluorescent tetracationic cyclophanes exhibit a significant AIE compared to their neutral optically active binaphthyl precursors. A combination of theoretical calculations and time-resolved spectroscopy reveal that the AIE originates from limited torsional vibrations associated with the axes of chirality present in the chiral enantiomeric binaphthyl units and the fine-tuning of their electronic landscape when incorporated within the cyclophane structure. Furthermore, these highly charged enantiopure cyclophanes display CPL responses both in solution and in the aggregated state. This unique duality of AIE and CPL in these tetracationic cyclophanes is destined to be of major importance in future development of photonic devices and bio-applications.

Abstract
With the advent of a new decade and the paradigm shift of every sphere of urban life to virtual platforms, it has become imperative for the global researcher community to channelize efforts into upgradation of the existing display-technology. In this context, discotic liquid crystals (DLCs) are a class of self-assembling organic materials that are recently being explored in fabricating the emissive layers of organic light emitting diodes (OLEDs). With their unique inherent structural and functional properties, they have the potential to challenge the currently prevailing OLED-emitters. Yet the applications of this promising class of materials in OLEDs have not been comprehensively reviewed in literature till now. In this account, we present an overview of the developments in the field of luminescent DLC-based emitters, supported by their associated photophysical phenomena and their performance parameters as emitters in fabricated OLED devices.

J Colloid Interface Sci 2022; 623:238-246. [PMID: 35588631 DOI: 10.1016/j.jcis.2022.05.021] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/13/2022] [Revised: 04/19/2022] [Accepted: 05/04/2022] [Indexed: 11/24/2022]
Abstract
The self-assembly properties of aggregation-induced emission molecules play important roles in electroluminescence devices and fluorescence sensors because noncovalent interactions in self-assembly structures would accelerate the excitation energy consumption. However, there are only few studies to explore their self-assembly properties on the interface and there is still a great need for further understanding self-assembled mechanisms from the viewpoint of molecular design. Here, we presented three X-shaped aggregation-induced emission molecules X1, X2 and X3, which decorated with different functional groups and alkyl side chains. The self-assembly structures were revealed by scanning tunneling microscopy technique in combination with density functional theory. Results showed that X-shaped molecules self-assembled into different structures, depending on their molecular structure, especially the functional groups. Furthermore, self-assembly structures could be regulated by adjusting solution concentration. In more detail, parallel with gradually increasing solution concentration, the molecules approached closer and molecule-molecule interactions were enhanced, finally resulting in new nanostructures. The self-assembly properties of three X-shaped aggregation-induced emission molecules on the liquid/solid interface would give a guidance for further exploring the aggregation state in three-dimensional space. Meanwhile, the two-dimensional nanostructures might show special properties, which could be used in fabricating next generation functional films.

Abstract
The abuse of antibiotics has caused serious threat to human health, so it is of great significance to develop a simple and sensitive method for the detection of trace residues of antibiotics in the environment and food. Herein, a novel label-free fluorescent biosensing platform based on the fluorescence change of aptamers-capped zeolitic imidazolate framework-8 (ZIF-8) @ 2,2',2″,2‴-((ethene-1,1,2,2-tetrayltetrakis (benzene-4,1-diyl)) tetrakis (oxy)) tetraacetic acid (TPE) through ATP-assisted competitive coordination reaction was designed for such an end. ZIF-8@TPE/Aptamer (Apt) emits strong fluorescence at 425 nm in HEPES buffer due to the aggregation induced luminescence properties of TPE molecules in confined state. Once kanamycin was added, the conformation of aptamer capped on the surface of ZIF-8@TPE changes because of the specific recognition of kanamycin with aptamer, leading to the collapse of ZIF-8 and release of TPE, accompanied with a dramatic decrease of fluorescence intensity. Under the optimal conditions, a good correlation was obtained between the fluorescence intensity of ZIF-8@TPE/Apt and the concentration of kanamycin ranging from 10 to 103 ng/mL with a detection limit of 7.3 ng/mL. The satisfactory analytical performance of the assay for kanamycin detection suggests good prospect for its application in food safety analysis.

Abstract
Six novel benzimidazole-based D-π-A compounds 4 a-4 f were concisely synthesized by attaching different donor/acceptor units to the skeleton of 1,3-bis(1H-benzimidazol-2-yl)benzene on its 5-position through an ethynyl link. Due to the twisted conformation and effective conjugation structure, these dual-state emission (DSE) molecules show intense and multifarious photoluminescence, and their fluorescence quantum yields in solution and solid state can be up to 96.16 and 69.82 %, respectively. Especially, for excellent photostability, obvious solvatofluorochromic and extraordinary wide range of solvent compatibility, DSE molecule 4 a is a multifunctional fluorescent probe for the visual detection of nitroaromatic compounds (NACs) with the limit of detection as low as 10-7 M. The quenching mechanism has been proved as the results of photoinduced electron transfer and fluorescence resonance energy transfer processes. Importantly, probe 4 a can sensitively detect NACs not only in real water samples, but also on 4 a-coated strips and 4 a@PBAT thin films.

Abstract
In this contribution, we have designed and synthesized a novel carbazole-1,3,4-oxadiazole based bipolar fluorophore (E)-2-(4-(4-(9H-carbazol-9-yl)styryl)phenyl)-5-(4-(tertbutyl) phenyl)-1,3,4-oxadiazole (CBZ-OXA-IV). Wittig reaction is utilised for the synthesis of the designed bipolar target compound CBZ-OXA-IV. 1H NMR, 13C NMR, FT-IR and ESI-MS results confirmed the designed chemical structure of the fluorophore CBZ-OXA-IV. The photophysical properties have been investigated in detail using UV-Vis absorption, photoluminescence spectroscopy. Also, the photoluminescence studies on solid state samples (as thin films) were carried out. The CBZ-OXA-IV dye emits intense deep blue fluorescence with observed absorption and emission maxima occurring are at 353 nm and 470 nm, respectively. Fluorophore CBZ-OXA-IV has shown high Stokes shift of 7052 cm-1. The experimentally measured optical band gap ([Formula: see text]) value is found to be 3.01 eV and the fluorescence quantum yields (Φf) is 0.40. The intramolecular charge transfer property of CBZ-OXA-IV dye was examined by using photophysical properties such as absorption, emission in different solvents of different varying polarities. In addition, Density Functional Theory computations are studied in detail including the MEP surface plots and natural bond orbital analysis. The electrochemical properties have been investigated in detail by using cyclic voltammetry measurements. Thermal gravimetric analysis (TGA) and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) measurement results display a high thermal stability with decomposition temperature (Td5%) 387 °C and a large glass transition temperature (Tg) of 98 °C. The obtained results demonstrated that the novel bipolar fluorophore CBZ-OXA-IV could play an important role in organic optoelectronics and possibly can be utilized as bipolar transport materials for electroluminescence applications in optoelectronic devices/OLEDs.

Abstract
The reaction of diiminoisoindoline and iminoxoisoindoline with aminoazoles results in the formation of bidentate chelates that can be considered a semihemiporphyrazine. These chelates react with BF3 to produce fluorescent compounds that are structurally analogous to the BODIPY dyes. These difluoroboron semihemiporphyrazines (BOSHPYs) aggregate, and the type of aggregation (H or J) is determined by a single atom at the periphery of the ligand (O or N). Notably, the imine terminated compounds remain fluorescent upon aggregation.

Abstract
Nonaromatic photoluminescent polymers have attracted great attention due to their intriguing photophysical properties and promising implications in optoelectronic and biological areas. The luminescence from these nonconventional luminophores can be well rationalized by the clustering-triggered emission mechanism. Sulfur, although as an n-electron-rich element with big radius, is not been widely utilized in construction of nonconventional luminophores despite of its potential competitiveness in nonaromatic photoluminescent polymers. Herein, the "click" type Michael polyaddition is utilized to construct sulfur-bearing nonconventional luminophores, and two sulfur enriched nonaromatic poly(thioether sulfone)s (PES) are obtained, which demonstrate fluorescence-phosphorescence dual emission. More investigations concerning the monomer of bis(vinylsulfonyl)methane are further proceeded to support acquired results. Finally, the application of explosive detection by the prepared PES is also conducted.

Abstract
In this review, the dependence of the photophysical response of chromophores in the confined environments associated with crystalline scaffolds, such as metal-organic frameworks (MOFs), covalent-organic frameworks (COFs), and molecular cages, has been carefully evaluated. Tunability of the framework aperture, cavity microenvironment, and scaffold topology significantly affects emission profiles, quantum yields, or fluorescence lifetimes of confined chromophores. In addition to the role of the host and its effect on the guest, the methods for integration of a chromophore (e.g., as a framework backbone, capping linker, ligand side group, or guest) are discussed. The overall potential of chromophore-integrated frameworks for a wide-range of applications, including artificial biomimetic systems, white-light emitting diodes, photoresponsive devices, and fluorescent sensors with unparalleled spatial resolution are highlighted throughout the review.

Abstract
Aggregation induced emission (AIE) luminogens (AIEgens) have great potential in the field of organic optoelectronic devices because of their highly efficient emission property in solid state. For example, high efficiency organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs) based on AIEgens have been developed successfully. Some AIEgens also show good photovoltaic response properties for organic solar cells (OSCs) and organic photodetectors (OPDs), and lasing properties for optically pumping organic lasers (OLs). The review will cover the status and prospects of AIEgens in OLEDs, OLs, OSCs and OPDs. It is expected that AIEgens will become an important organic optoelectronic material system in the future.

Abstract
Ions, including anions and heavy metals, are extremely toxic and easily accumulate in the human body, threatening the health of humans and even causing human death at low concentrations. It is therefore necessary to detect these toxic ions in low concentrations in water. Fluorescent sensing is a good method for detecting these ions, but some conventional dyes often exhibit an aggregation caused quench (ACQ) effect in their solid state, limiting their large-scale application. Fluorescent probes based on aggregation-induced emission (AIE) properties have received significant attention due to their high fluorescence quantum yields in their nano aggragated states, easy fabrication, use of moderate conditions, and selevtive recognization of organic/inorganic compounds in water with obvious changes in fluorescence. We surmarize the recent advances of AIE-based sensors for low concentration toxic ion detection in water. The detection probes can be divided into three categories: chemical reaction types, chemical interaction types and physical interaction types. Chemical reaction types utilize nucleophilic addition and coordination reaction, while chemical interaction types rely on hydrogen bonding and anion-π interactions. The physical interaction types are composed of electrostatic attractions. We finally comment on the challenges and outlook of AIE-active sensors.

Abstract
Materials that have higher fluorescence emission in the solid state than molecules in solution have recently been paid more attention by the scientific community due to their potential applications in various fields. In this work, we newly synthesized benzoxazolyl-imidazole and benzothiazolyl-imidazole conjugates, which show aggregation-induced emission (AIE) features in their solid and aggregate states. It was found that oxygen and sulfur substitutions can dramatically influence the molecular structures and polarities of the dyes, leading to different degrees of the AIE phenomenon. The benzothiazolyl-imidazole molecule has lower polarity compared to that of benzoxazolyl-imidazole; therefore, the dye bearing a benzothiazolyl group shows higher emission intensity and dual emission in aqueous solution. Theoretical calculation results suggest that the benzothiazolyl-imidazole molecules might have electrostatic interactions between sulfur and nitrogen atoms, explaining the experimental observations of lower critical aggregation concentration and photophysical properties both in solution and in the solid state. The theoretical calculations agree with the experimental data, thus demonstrating a potent strategy to gain a deep understanding of the structure–property relationships to design solid-state fluorescent materials. The effect of heteroatoms on the structural and photophysical properties of donor-π-acceptor molecules, comprising imidazole and benzoxazolyl as well as imidazole and benzothiazolyl units, was investigated.![]()

Abstract
High emission efficiency and finite molecular conjugation in the aggregate state are two desirable features in violet-blue emitters. Aggregation-induced emission luminogens (AIEgens) have emerged as promising luminescent materials that offer these features. Herein, we report the design and synthesis of a group of violet-blue tetraphenylbenzene-based AIEgens with photoluminescence quantum yields over 98% in their film states. When utilizing these AIEgens as nondoped emitting layers, the fabricated organic light-emitting diode exhibits a maximum external quantum efficiency of 4.34% with Commission Internationale de L'Eclairage (CIE) coordinates of (0.159, 0.035), which is amenable to the next-generation ultrahigh-definition television (UHDTV) display standard.

Abstract
A family of pyrene[4,5-d]imidazole derivatives, PyPA, PyPPA, PyPPAC, and PyPAC, with different excited states are successfully developed. Among them, PyPPA and PyPPAC possess hybridized local and charge-transfer (HLCT) state, endowing them with pure blue fluorescence as well as high quantum yields. The nondoped organic light-emitting diode (OLED) based on PyPPA displays Commission Internationale de L'Eclairage coordinates of (0.14, 0.13) and achieves a maximum external quantum efficiency (EQE) of 8.47%, which are among the highest value reported to date for nondoped blue HLCT OLEDs. The nondoped OLED based on PyPPAC exhibits a maximum luminance of 50,046 cd m-2 located in the blue region with CIE coordinates of (0.15, 0.21) and an EQE of 6.74% even when the luminance reached over 10,000 cd m-2. In addition, they both reveal ultimate exciton utilizing efficiencies of nearly 100%. The potential of a blue emitter of PyPPA with an HLCT character for application in white OLED (WOLED) is further tested. The efficient two-color hybrid warm WOLED is successfully achieved, which provides the total EQE, power efficiency, and current efficiency of up to 21.19%, 61.46 lm W-1, and 62.13 cd A-1, respectively. The nondoped blue OLEDs and hybrid WOLEDs present good color stabilities with low efficiency roll-offs. Our results prove that taking advantage of the HLCT state, nondoped blue OLEDs as well as hybrid WOLEDs with high performance could be realized, which have a promising prospect for the displays and lightings in the future.

Abstract
Nonaromatic, cross-conjugated, and highly twisted luminogens consisting of acylated succinimides demonstrate aggregation-induced emission characteristics along with tunable multicolor photoluminescence and afterglows in their single crystals. Effective through-space conjugation among different moieties bearing n/π electrons promote the spin-orbit coupling and intersystem crossing and lead to diverse emissive clusters with concurrently rigidified conformations, thus allowing readily tunable emissions. Derived from it, the proof-of-concept application for advanced anti-counterfeiting is illustrated. These results should spur the rational design of novel nonaromatic AIEgens, and moreover advance understandings of the non-traditional intrinsic luminescence and the origin of tunable multicolor afterglows.

Abstract
Two efficient novel fluorescent naphthalene and fluorene-based aromatic hydrocarbon isomers (1 and 2) are prepared and investigated for organic electroluminescence. These compounds show bright violet to deep-blue emission, narrow full width at half maximum (52 nm), and high photoluminescence efficiency (e.g. 0.61 in CH2Cl2, 0.67 in film). Alternation of substituent position on the naphthalene moiety can give rise to remarkable emission variation. The relatively large torsion angle between naphthalene and fluorene suppresses the π–π interactions by weakening the intermolecular interactions in the solid state, which can result in highly efficient fluorescence. Moreover, the 1931 Commission Internationale de L'Eclairage coordinates and maximum emission peak for deep-blue electroluminescence based on 1 are (0.16, 0.08) and 410 nm, respectively. Novel solution processable aromatic hydrocarbons have been designed and synthesized for deep-blue OLEDs with a maximum emission peak of 410 nm and CIE coordinates of (0.16, 0.08).![]()

Abstract
Enhancing the injection of electron is an effective strategy to improve the performance of polymer light-emitting diodes (PLEDs). In this work, we reported a 286% improvement in current efficiency (CE) of PLEDs by using double-layered alkali halide electron injection layer (EIL) NaCl/LiF instead of LiF. A significant enhancement of electron injection was observed after inserting the NaCl layer. To understand the mechanism of such improvement, the devices with KBr/LiF and CsF/LiF as EILs were also investigated. Experimental results show that metal cation migrated under the effect of built-in electric field (Vbi), which plays the main role on the improvement of electron injection in PLEDs.

Abstract
Two efficient deep red (DR)-emitting organic dicyano-phenylenevinylene derivatives with terminal withdrawing or donor groups were synthesized. The spectroscopic properties of the neat solids and the low-doped layers in polystyrene or polyvinylcarbazole host matrixes were analyzed, and the luminescence performance was explained using density functional theory (DFT) analysis. A noteworthy 89% fluorescence quantum yield was observed for the brightest red-emissive polyvinylcarbazole (PVK) blend. This result pushed us to successfully produce an emissive red organic light-emitting device (OLED) as a preliminary feasibility test.

Abstract
Being a unique, simple, and inexpensive approach, continuous development on the fluorescence-based technologies remains active in fluorescent anticounterfeiting. A number of polymeric, nano-, carbon dot, and rare-earth oxide materials were preferably explored for such applications, but the complex synthesis, purity, and high cost are the major concerns to make these materials accessible for commercial applications. To address these difficulties, we herein report simple mono-carbazole-linked anthranyl π-conjugates that are synthesized in a gram scale via an inexpensive and convenient route. These unsymmetrically substituted new π-conjugates are found to be promising blue-shifted aggregation-induced emission-active fluorogens (AIEgens) having a distinct color on varying substituents with electron-rich (-NEt2) and electron-poor (-CN) functionalities. The direct link of a single carbazole unit with an anthracenyl π-conjugate possibly enforces the achievement of a highly twisted molecular structure, accountable for the AIE characteristics. The π-conjugate with -NEt2 substituents is established to be highly sensitive under protonation-deprotonation stimuli by a sharp and rapid fluorescence color change [yellow (Φf = 37%) to green (Φf = 39.4%)] in the solid state (no fluorescence on/off). Upon the exposure of the base vapors (deprotonation), the original emission color (yellow) comes back. Such reversible and also repeatable acidchromism is demonstrated to be perfectly suitable for anticounterfeiting applications by marking the AIEgen on the paper that shows the bright image of the AIEgen under the UV torch (365 nm). Almost equal efficiencies by fabricating on different surfaces such as polythene paper and a fresh leaf are observed. While these spots can be duplicated with typical yellow fluorescent dyes, our AIEgen can easily be differentiated with the acid key. The emission color change of this AIEgen from yellow to green under acid stimuli is distinctly defined compared to other dyes and vividly recognized by naked eyes. Thus, one can combat the counterfeiters with the acid key. The reversible color-changing behavior on the paper remains intact even after six consecutive days of exposure to sunlight, and the AIEgen is thermally stable up to 445 °C. Further, this compound is also utilized as ink (10 μM 1,4-dioxane solution) where a pigeon feather is used as a quill pen. The mechanistic insights behind these facts have also been proposed and validated wherever possible.
