Tuning intramolecular charge transfer and spin–orbit coupling of AIE-active type-I photosensitizers for photodynamic therapy

Judicious strategy to envision fine-tuning of intramolecular charge transfer (ICT) and spin-orbit coupling (SOC) features for the advances of AIE-active Type-I photosensitizers (PSs) for image-guided photodynamic therapy (PDT).
