Counterion‐Mediated Luminophore Dimerization Emissive organic salts have long been integral to the discovery of fluorescence phenomena and functional luminescent dyes. Typically, one component of the salt acts as the photoactive unit (luminopho...

Our latest paper shows emissive organic cations can be brought together by certain counterions, giving emission from the monomer, excimer or dimer state
