Abstract
The self-assembly of mechanoluminochromic polynuclear gold(I) complexes has attracted more and more attention in the field of supramolecular gold(I) chemistry. In this work, we adopted a stepwise self-assembly strategy to precisely synthesize two polynuclear gold(I) supramolecular clusters. Through cooperative AuI···AuI and Au-N interactions, the gold(I) clusters 1+•BF4- and 24+•4BF4- with Au4 and Au16 cores, respectively, were successfully constructed. In these supramolecular clusters, (dppm)Au2Cl2 coordination motifs and trithiocyanuric linkers were stepwise assembled via sequential thiolate-chloride/phosphine coordination substitution and Au-S/Au-N coordination bond rearrangement. Two well-defined gold(I) supramolecular clusters displayed intense emission both in the solid state and in solution. Furthermore, the ladder-shaped cluster 24+•4BF4- exhibited reversible mechanochromic luminescence behavior in the solid state as well as aggregation-caused redshifted emission in solution. Upon mechanical grinding, the emission of the cluster 24+•4BF4- changed from yellow at 582 nm to red at 612 nm. The initial emission could be fully recovered by treatment with acetonitrile.

Abstract
Mixed crystals composed of two distinct gold isocyanide complexes are reported. Characterization of the mixed crystal formation and mixing ratios are performed by single-crystal X-ray diffraction and nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy analyses. By changing the mixing ratio, we achieve continuous changes in the emission lifetimes and the emission quantum yields.

Abstract
Molecules and materials derived from self-assembled extended π-systems have strong and reversible optical properties, which can be modulated with external stimuli such as temperature, mechanical stress, ions, the polarity of the medium, and so on. In many cases, absorption and emission responses of self-assembled supramolecular π-systems are manifested several times higher when compared with the individual molecular building blocks. These properties of molecular assemblies encourage scientists to have a deeper understanding of their design to explore them for suitable optoelectronic applications. Therefore, it is important to bring in highly responsive optical features in π-systems, for which it is necessary to modify their structures by varying the conjugation length and by introducing donor-acceptor functional groups. Using noncovalent forces, π-systems can be put together to form assemblies of different shapes and sizes with varied optical band gaps through controlling intermolecular electronic interactions. In addition, using directional forces, it is possible to bring anisotropy to the self-assembled nanostructures, facilitating efficient exciton migration, resulting in the modulation of optical and electron-transport properties. In this Account, we mainly summarize our findings with optically tunable self-assemblies of extended π-systems such as p-phenylenevinylenes (PVs), p-phenyleneethynylenes (PEs), and diketopyrrolopyrroles (DPPs) as different stimuli-responsive platforms to develop sensors and security materials. We start with how PV self-assemblies and their coassemblies with appropriate electron-deficient systems can be used for the sensing of analytes in contact mode or in the vapor phase. For example, whereas the PV having electron-deficient terminal groups has high sensitivity toward trinitrotoluene (TNT) in contact mode, the supercoiled fibers formed by the coassembly of self-sorted stacks of C3-symmetrical PV and C3-symmetrical electron-deficient perylene bisimide are capable of sensing vapors of nitrobenzene and o-toluidine. The power of different functional groups in combination with PVs has been further illustrated by attaching CO2-sensitive tertiary amine moieties to a cyano-substituted PV, which allowed the bimodal detection of CO2 using fluorescence and Raman spectroscopy. Interestingly, the functionalization of PVs with terminal amide groups and chiral alkoxy side chains provided a mechanochromic system that allows self-erasable imaging. Whereas PVs exhibit quenching of fluorescence in most cases during self-assembly, PE derivatives exhibit aggregation-induced emission. This property of PEs has been exploited for the development of stimuli-responsive security materials, especially for currency and documents. For instance, the blue fluorescence of a PE attached to hydrophilic oxyethylene side chains coated on a filter paper upon contact with water changes to cyan emission due to the change in the molecular packing. Interestingly, the molecular packing of a Bodipy-attached PE-based gelator allowed a stress-induced change in the emission behavior, resulting in strong near-infrared (NIR) emission upon the application of mechanical stress or gelation. Finally, the use of DPP-based π-systems for the development of NIR transparent optical filters that block UV-vis light and their security- and forensic-related applications are described. These selected examples of the π-system self-assemblies provide an idea of the current status and future opportunities for scientists interested in this field of self-assembly and soft materials research.

Abstract
The introduction of optoelectronic functions into viscoelastic polymers can yield highly sophisticated soft materials for biomedical devices and autonomous robotics. However, viscoelasticity and excellent optoelectronic properties are difficult to achieve because the presence of a large number of π-conjugated moieties drastically stiffens a polymer. Here, we report a variation of additive-free viscoelastic conjugated polymers (VE-CPs) at room temperature by using an intact π-conjugated backbone and bulky, yet flexible, alkyl side chains as "internal plasticizers." Some of these polymers exhibit gel- and elastomer-like rheological behaviors without cross-linking or entanglement. Furthermore, binary blends of these VE-CPs exhibit a never-seen-before dynamic miscibility with self-restorable and mechanically induced fluorescence color changes.
