Abstract
None:
Aggregation-induced emission triggered by external stimuli plays an important role in smart materials. Herein, we report the serendipitous discovery that 3Star-Ph-Ph, a soft tripod, forms pressure-induced assemblies with distinctly amplified fluorescence owing to restricted molecular motions within these assemblies.
