Sulfonamides for Organic Electronics - Deep-Blue Emitter

My team recently reported a sulfonamide-based blue-emitting organic fluorophore that exhibits crystallization-induced emission enhancement.[1] Sulfonamides remain highly underutilized as functional groups in organic electronics and should be further explored as versatile molecular motifs for engineering structure-property-function relationships.
