چکیده

Fluorescent biosensors are powerful analytical tools for studying biological events in living systems. Luminescent materials with aggregation-induced emission (AIE) attributes have attracted much research interest and have been identified as a novel class of luminogens to develop fluorescent turn-on biosensors with superior sensitivity. In this Tutorial Review, we present an overview of the AIE phenomenon and its mechanism. We summarize the structural design and working principle of AIE biosensors developed recently. Typical examples of AIE biosensors are presented.

From tetraphenylethene to tetranaphthylethene: structural evolution in AIE luminogen continues.

Replacement of phenyl ring(s) in tetraphenylethene by naphthalene ring(s) generates a series of new luminogens with aggregation-induced emission (AIE) characteristics, demonstrating that bulky naphthalene rings can serve as a rotor to construct AIE luminogens.

The Strong Light‐Emission Materials in the Aggregated State: What Happens from a Single Molecule to the Collective Group

The strong light emission of organic luminogens in the aggregated state is essential to their applications as optoelectronic materials with good performance. In this review, with respect to the aggregation-induced emission and room-temperature phosphorescence luminogens, the important role of molecular packing modes is highlighted. As demonstrated in the selected examples, the molecular packing...

Stereochemical modulation of emission behaviour in E/Z isomers of diphenyldipyrroethene from aggregation induced emission to crystallization induced emission.

Herein, we report the synthesis, separation and characterisation of the E- and Z-isomers of dipyrrolyldiphenylethene to study their emission behaviour in the aggregation state and solid state. The E-isomer showed pronounced aggregation induced emission (AIE) whereas the Z-isomer showed crystallization induced emission (CIE). The present study explains that the emission behaviour (AIE/CIE) is de...

Aggregation-enhanced emission and efficient electroluminescence of tetraphenylethene-cored luminogens.

A new design of luminescent materials by decorating a tetraphenylethene core with four aromatic chromophores is proposed. The generated luminogens exhibit aggregation-enhanced emission and excellent solid-state fluorescence efficiency (93-99%). Efficient non-doped OLEDs based on them afford remarkable efficiencies up to 11 cd A(-1).

In Vitro Cytotoxicity of Fluorescent Silica Nanoparticles Hybridized with Aggregation-Induced Emission Luminogens for Living Cell Imaging

Fluorescent silica nanoparticles (FSNPs) can provide high-intensity and photostable fluorescent signals as a probe for biomedical analysis. In this study, FSNPs hybridized with aggregation-induced emission (AIE) luminogens (namely FSNP-SD) were successfully fabricated by a surfactant-free sol-gel method. The FSNP-SD were spherical, monodisperse and uniform in size, with an average diameter of a...
