Structure–property relationship in contrasting aggregation-induced enhancement/quenching of emission in rigid aromatic molecules
Yosuke Tani, Takuji Ogawa
Abstract
A rigid, polycyclic, and fully-ring-fused π-system without any rotatable substituents shows aggregation-induced emission or aggregation-caused quenching, depending on the fused aromatic rings.
