Organic luminescent materials are often used in modern technologies, but aggregation induced quenching caused by planar aromatic structures hampers their applicability. Here, the authors demonstrate a facile co-assembly method for luminescent cocrystals and protection with hydrophilic PEO chains which allow good dispersibility in water.
