Abstract

Aggregation-­induced­ emission­ (AIE)­ describes ­a­ photophysical­ phenomenon ­in­which­ molecular­ aggregate ­exhibits ­stronger­ emission­ than ­its­ single-­molecule­counterpart.­ AIE ­research ­provides­ an ­excellent­ platform­ to­ explore ­aggregate­behaviours ­since ­it ­emphasizes ­the­ new­ properties ­endowed­ by­ molecular­aggregates ­beyond­ the­ microscopic­ molecular­ level.­ The­ 21-­year­ development ­of­AIE­ research ­has­ witnessed­ the­ great ­achievements ­in ­this ­area,­ including­mechanistic­ understanding,­structure-­property­ relationship,­ and­ high-­tech­applications.­The­ achievements­ of­ AIE­ research­ demonstrate­ that ­many ­behaviours­and ­functions ­that­ are­ absent­ in ­molecular­ species­ can­ be­ founded ­in ­molecular­aggregates.­
