title: Fluorescence enhancements of benzene-cored luminophors by restricted intramolecular rotations: AIE and AIEE effects.
abstract: Photoluminescence of simple arylbenzenes with ready synthetic accessibility is enhanced by two orders of magnitude through aggregate formation; viscosity and temperature effects indicate that the emission enhancement is due to the restriction of their intramolecular rotations in the solid state.
