Herein, a simple method is presented for the preparations of CPP-active micro/nanocrystals with large luminescence dissymmetry factors(glum), high phosphorescence quantum efficiencies(Φ_(P)) and tunable emission colors. Diastereomeric Ir^(Ⅲ) and Ru^(Ⅱ) complexes with chiral(±)-camphorsulfonate counter-anions are readily synthesized and assembled into crystalline microrods, microplates or nanofibers with ordered morphologies. The chirality information of chiral counter-anions is efficiently transferred to the metal components to afford CPPs with cyan, green,yellow, or red emission colors and Φ_(P)in the range of 5%–85%. The number of chiral anions is found to play a role in influencing the CPP magnitudes of these crystals. The dicationic Ru^(Ⅱ) and tricationic Ir^(Ⅲ) complexes show glumvalues in the 10^(-2)order, which are much larger with respect to those of monocationic Ir^(Ⅲ) complexes. Single crystal X-ray analysis is performed to obtain information on the chirality transfer of these materials. In addition, circularly polarized photonic signal waveguiding is demonstrated using the microcrystals of an Ir^(Ⅲ)complex. This work demonstrates an appealing strategy of constructing chiral micro/nano-architectures for potential applications in chiral nanophotonics.展开更多
