Nonconventional Luminophores: Emission Mechanism, Regulation, and Applications

ConspectusNonconventional luminophores, characterized by the absence of extended (hetero)aromatic building blocks and alternating single-double/triple bonds, are composed primarily of electron-rich moieties, such as heteroatoms, double bonds, aliphatic amines, carbonyls, hydroxyls, cyano groups, amides, and their grouped functionalities. These unique structural features, coupled with their intriguing luminescent properties, have garnered significant interest for both fundamental research and promising applications, thus enabling widespread exploration. They generally benefit from abundant resources, simple synthesis, outstanding biocompatibility, and excellent photostability, empowering their potential…
