Abstract
Restriction of intramolecular motion (RIM) is the widely-accpeted mechanism of aggregation-induced emission (AIE). In this concise and comprehensive perspective, four mechanistic models related to different nonradiative pathways are summarized with examples to disclose the connotation of RIM, and meaningful mechanistic topics for future researches are advised.
