Abstract:J‐aggregates show great promise in phototherapy, but are limited to specific molecular skeletons and poor molecular self‐assembly controllability. Herein, we report a twisted‐planar molecular strategy with sonication‐induced J‐aggregation to develop donor‐acceptor (D‐A) type J‐aggregates for phototherapy. With propeller aggregation‐induced emission (AIE) moieties as the twisted subunits and thiophene as the planar π‐bridge, the optimal twisted‐planar π‐interaction in MTSIC induces appropriate slip angle and J‐… Show more
