TL;DR: Taking advantage of the AIE feature, the AIP molecules are fabricated into OLEDs as a homogeneous light-emitting layer, which allows for relatively small efficiency roll-off and shows an external electroluminescence quantum yield of up to 5.8%, more than the theoretical limit for purely fluorescent OLED devices.

TL;DR: In this article, a series of fluorescent naphthalimides, which did not originally show observable phosphorescence in solution, as aggregates, in polymer films, or in any other tested host material, including heavy-atom matrices at cryogenic temperatures, can now efficiently produce ultralong RTP (ϕ=0.17, τ=243 ms) in phthalimide hosts.

TL;DR: The reported molecular construct serves as an intermediary case between a fully conjugated donor-acceptor system and a donor/acceptor binary mix, which may provide important clues on the design and control of high-freedom molecular systems with complex excited-state dynamics.

TL;DR: In this paper, a series of naphthalene diimides with various electron-donor substituents on the nitrogen atoms were used to achieve red room temperature phosphorescence (RTP).

TL;DR: In this article, the authors used a well-established empirical rule on electrophilic substitution involving directing groups in organic chemistry, where two luminophores are covalently linked to benzene ortho, meta, and para to each other.
