ABSTRACT
Aggregation-induced emission (AIE) is commonly observed in irregular bulk form. Herein, unique aggregation properties of an AIE-active complex into branched supramolecular wires are reported for the first time. Mono-cyclometalated Ir(III) complex shows in-plane J-aggregation at the air-water interface owing to the restriction of intramolecular vibration of bidentate phenylpyridinato and intramolecular rotations of monodentate triphenylphosphine ligands at air-water interface. As a consequence, a large enhancement of luminescence comparable to the solid state is obtained from the monolayers of supramolecular wires. This unique feature is utilized for the fabrication of light-emitting diodes with low threshold voltage using supramolecular wires as active layer. This study opens up the need of ordered assembly of AIE complexes to achieve optimal luminescence characteristics.
