Amphiphilic AIEgen‐polymer aggregates: Design, self‐assembly and biomedical applications

open access: yesAggregate, 2022
Aggregation‐induced emission (AIE) is a phenomenon in which fluorescence is enhanced rather than quenched upon molecular assembly. AIE fluorogens (AIEgens) are flexible, conjugated systems that are limited in their dynamics when assembled, which improves
