Twisted intramolecular charge transfer (TICT) and twists beyond TICT: from mechanisms to rational designs of bright and sensitive fluorophores

TL;DR: The twisted intramolecular charge transfer (TICT) mechanism has guided the development of numerous bright and sensitive fluorophores as mentioned in this paper, with emphasis on understanding the structure-property relationships between the twisted geometries and how they can directly affect the fluorescence of the molecules.
Journal ArticleDOI

Quantitative Design of Bright Fluorophores and AIEgens by the Accurate Prediction of Twisted Intramolecular Charge Transfer (TICT)

TL;DR: Based on a comprehensive comparison of various representative exchange-correlation functionals and solvent formalisms, a reliable and generalizable computational approach is established for modeling TICT formations of popular organic fluorophores with time-dependent density functional theory (TD-DFT).
Journal ArticleDOI

Quaternary Piperazine-Substituted Rhodamines with Enhanced Brightness for Super-Resolution Imaging.

TL;DR: A new class of quaternary piperazine substituted rhodamines with outstanding quantum yields and superior brightness is developed, by utilizing the electronic inductive effect to prevent TICT.
Journal ArticleDOI

Structural Engineering of Luminogens with High Emission Efficiency Both in Solution and in the Solid State.

TL;DR: This work overcame the dilemma via integrating planar and distorted structures with long alkyl side chains to achieve DAπAD type emitters, which may provide a new vision for applying bright luminescent materials in a variety of environments.
