Stimulus-responsive room temperature phosphorescence in purely organic luminogens

Luminogens that exhibit stimulus-responsive room temperature phosphorescence(RTP)have attracted significant attention for their applications in a wide range of fields such as data storage,sensors,and bio-imaging.However,very few such materials are known,partly because of the unclear internal mechanism.In this review,we summarize recent advances in the field of stimulusresponsive RTP in purely organic luminogens,focusing on their unique emission behaviors and internal mechanisms governing the phenomena.We also attempt to identify the relationship between the mechanism,luminogens,and possible applications.
