Chiral Organic Optoelectronic Materials and Circularly Polarized Light Luminescence and Detection

Chiral organic semiconductors have stimulated extensive research interests in the field of organic optoelectronics due to their fascinating properties. The incorporation of chirality into organic semiconducting materials can not only control their aggregation states by virtue of the unique non-covalent interactions among chiral molecules to regulate electronic/optoelectronic properties, but also facilitates the emergence and development of circularly polarized light direct luminescence and detection. The interactions between chiral materials and circularly polarized light allow them to show broad application prospects in the field of three-dimensional display, quantum communications, information storage and processing, and so forth. This review summarizes the research progress of chiral organic optoelectronic materials and devices in recent years. It mainly reviews the influence of chirality on material properties and device performance, focusing on the applications of circularly polarized light luminescence and detection using chiral organic semiconductors, and aiming to promote the development of relevant research in the field of chiral optoelectronics.
