Luminescence: Full-Color Tunable Circularly Polarized Luminescent Nanoassemblies of Achiral AIEgens in Confined Chiral Nanotubes (Adv. Mater. 19/2017)

Circularly polarized emissive nanotubes are fabricated by simple mixing of chiral gelator with achiral dyes, as described by Jing You, Pengfei Duan, Minghua Liu and co-workers in article number 1606503. Various dyes are encapsulated into the chiral nanotubes, showing tunable emission color. Chirality transfer occurs from the confined chiral space of nanotubes to the guest dye aggregates. This method provides a simple and general approach for fabricating full-color tunable circularly polarized emissive nanomaterials.
