The solid-state luminescence behavior of a compound (BAPN) depends on the molecular aggregation pattern. Modular analysis shows that the two emitting systems within the BAPN molecule are responsible for switching the emission color in various aggregation states.
Keywords: 9,9’-bianthracene; mechanochromic luminescence; modular analysis; structure-property relationships.
