Advances in circularly polarized luminescence materials based on helical polymers

Abstract

Helical polymers are widely used in chiral recognition, chiral response, asymmetric catalysis, photoelectric functional materials, and other fields due to their unique helical structure and optical activity. In recent years, chiral helical structure and excellent processing properties have made helical polymers a new favorite in the field of circularly polarized luminescence (CPL) materials. In this review, CPL materials are briefly introduced, and then the advantages and classification of CPL materials based on helical polymers are discussed. According to the classification, the research progress of CPL materials of helical polymers is summarized. It is hoped that this brief review can stimulate the interest in helical polymers and promote the further development of helical polymers in the field of CPL.
