Design of AIEgens for near-infrared IIb imaging through structural modulation at molecular and morphological levels

Light has limited penetration depth in vivo which has led to increasing interest in NIR-II fluorophores. Here, the authors report on the design and testing of an organic aggregation induced emission fluorophore with high quantum yield and demonstrate imaging of vasculature and intestines in live mic...
