Abstract Polymer-based circularly polarized luminescence (CPL) materials with the advantage of diversified structure, easy fabrication, high thermal stability, and tunable properties have garnered considerable attention. However, adequate precise tuning over CPL in polymer-based remains challenging due to difficulty regulating chiral structures. Herein, visualized full-color is achieved by doping red, green, blue quantum dots (QDs) into reconfigurable phase liquid crystal elastomers (BPLCEs). In contrast signal observed cholesteric (CLCEs), 3D cubic superstructure BPLCEs induces an opposite signal. Notably, this effect entirely independent photonic bandgaps (PBGs) results a g lum value, even without matching between PBGs emission bands QDs. Meanwhile, lattice structure can be reversibly switched via mechanical stretching force, inducing on-off switching signals, these variations further fixed using dynamic disulfide bonds BPLCEs. Moreover, smart systems for anti-counterfeiting information encryption been demonstrated, suggesting great potential BPLCEs-based active materials.

Abstract The integration of advanced functions and diverse practical applications calls for multifunctional liquid crystal elastomers (LCEs); however, the structure‐intrinsic luminescence excellent mechanical properties LCEs have not yet been explored. In this study, clusteroluminescence (CL)‐based (CL‐LCEs) are successfully fabricated without depending on large conjugated structures, thereby avoiding redundant organic synthesis aggregation‐caused quenching. experimental theoretical results reveal that secondary amine (–NH–) imine (–C = N–) groups play vital roles in determining presence fluorescence CL‐LCEs. Based above observation, strategy universalization a molecular library constructing CL‐LCEs further demonstrated. Meanwhile, dynamic bond bonds endows CL‐LCE system with rapid self‐healing under mild conditions (70 °C 10 min), stretchability, adaptive programmable characteristics. Furthermore, self‐luminescent performance enables visual detection process. Finally, CL‐based information storage anticounterfeiting realized their fiber actuators fluorescent textiles distinctive chemistry presented work has significant implications elucidating mechanism CL providing new strategies rational design novel LCE materials.

The fabrication of materials that can switch between circularly polarized luminescence (CPL) signals is both essential and challenging. Here, two new halogen-bonded fluorescent molecular photoswitches, namely, HB-switch 1 2, containing α-cyano-substituted diarylethene compounds with different end groups were developed. Upon exposure to specific UV or visible light wavelengths, they exhibited controllable reversible Z/E photoisomerization. When these switches integrated into blue-phase liquid crystals (BPLCs), the temperature range BP significantly expanded. Notably, system incorporating exclusively achieved polarization inversion CPL under irradiation UV/Visible during cooling/heating. photo/thermal dual-response behavior be attributed phase transition from a high-symmetry 3D Icubic lattice low-symmetry 1D helical superstructure induced by photoisomerization changes. This study underscores significance employing halogen-bond assembly strategies design switchable signals, opening possibilities for CPL-active systems.

Initially, R/S‐CLC‐TPB no emission, while following 1 min UV irradiation, it achieves an noticeable long lifetime 125 ms value up 1.6. enhancement can be attributed oxygen consumption properties under subsequently minimizing loss triplet exciton. Furthermore, by employing triplet‐singlet Förster resonance energy transfer (TS‐FRET) strategy from organic persistent room‐temperature phosphorescence donor fluorescent dye acceptor, color successfully modulated green orange. Ultimately, these materials demonstrate promising capabilities for advanced multi‐level information encryption utilizing their tunable color, create multiple layers that selectively accessed decoded based on photoactivation chiroptical properties.
