Compartmentalization-induced phosphorescent emission enhancement and triplet energy transfer in aqueous medium

Artificial light harvesting systems in aqueous medium are challenging to realize due to quenching effects from water and oxygen. Here the authors demonstrate rod-coil amphiphiles which act as compartmentalization agent to shield platinum(II) phosphors and enable their ordered spatial organization.
