Aggregation-Induced Emission (AIE): A Practical Guide introduces readers to the topic, guiding them through fundamental concepts and the latest advances in applications. The book covers concepts, principles and working mechanisms of AIE in AIE-active luminogens, with different classes of AIE luminogens reviewed, including polymers, three-dimensional frameworks (MOFs and COFs) and supramolecular gels. Special focus is given to the structure-property relationship, structural design strategies, targeted properties and application performance. The book provides readers with a deep understanding, not only on the fundamental principles of AIE, but more importantly, on how AIE luminogens and AIE properties can be incorporated in material development.

• Provides the fundamental principles, design and synthesis strategies of aggregation induced emission materials
• Reviews the most relevant applications in materials design for stimuli-responsive materials, biomedical applications, chemo-sensing and optoelectronics
• Emphasizes structural design and its connection to aggregation induced emission properties, also exploring the structure-property relationship

Dr. Jianwei Xu is a Principal Scientist and a Strategic Research Councillor at Institute of Materials Research and Engineering (IMRE), the Agency for Science, Research and Technology (A*STAR), Republic of Singapore. He has also been appointed as an adjunct associate professor at NUS since 2011. Dr. Xu received his PhD from the National University of Singapore (NUS). His current research areas are mainly focused on polyhedral oligomeric silsesquioxanes (POSS)-based functional hybrid materials, electrochromic conjugated polymers, aggregation-induced emission-based materials and hybrid thermoelectric materials. He has published more than 160 papers and filed more than 30 patents, some of which has been licensed to companies. He contributed 10 chapters to polymer materials related books and also compiled a book on smart electrochromic materials and device as chief editor.

Dr Ming Hui Chua is a Research Scientist at the Institute of Materials Research and Engineering (IMRE), the Agency for Science, Technology and Research (A*STAR), Singapore where his primary research is focused on organic thermoelectric and electrochromic materials. Dr. Chua graduated from the National University of Singapore (NUS) in 2013 with a Bachelor of Science (1st Class Honours) in Chemistry, and with a Doctor of Philosophy (PhD) in 2018. He is a recipient of the A*STAR Graduate Scholarship, which funded his four years of PhD studies, researching on the area of aggregation-induced emission (AIE). He also contributed to the compilation of a book on smart electrochromic materials and device as a co-editor. Dr Chua’s research interests is in the design and synthesis of novel pi-conjugated systems as useful functional materials such as organic electrochromics and AIE-active molecules and polymers for sensing and optoelectronics applications.

Prof. Ben Zhong Tang is the Stephen K. C. Cheong Professor of Science and Chair Professor of Chemistry at the Hong Kong University of Science and Technology. He received BS and PhD degrees from South China University of Technology and Kyoto University, respectively, and conducted postdoctoral research at the University of Toronto. He was elected to the Chinese Academy of Sciences in 2009. In 2001, He created the concept of aggregation-induced emission (AIE), and then works on the mechanism and design of various new AIE luminogens and their applications in biomedical theranostics, fluorescent biosensors, materials chemistry, organic chemistry and polymer chemistry. He has published more than1400 papers. He received the State Natural Science Award (1st Class) from the Chinese Government in 2017. He is now serving as the Editor-in-Chief of Materials Chemistry Frontiers.
