Modulating ICT emission: a new strategy to manipulate the CPL sign in chiral emitters.

A new strategy to manipulate the circularly polarized luminescence (CPL) handedness in chiral emitters, based on modulating the population of an emissive ICT state, is proposed. Such a strategy is particularly interesting for conformationally rigid and non-aggregating chiral organic emitters, opening up new perspectives for the development of CPL applications based on organic molecules.
