Abstract

<abstract abstract-type="graphical" xml:lang="en"> <title> <x xml:space="preserve">Abstract</x> </title> <p> <bold>Luminescent clustogelator</bold>: Hybrid gelators with a [Cu₄I₄] cluster core functionalized by cholesteryl derivatives allow solvent gelation through the formation of a globular network (see figure). The resulting gels display thermochromic and rigidochromic luminescence properties, the latter being used to probe the dynamics of the gelation phenomenon.<boxed-text content-type="graphic" position="anchor" orientation="portrait"><graphic position="anchor" mimetype="image" xlink:href="ark:/27927/pgg4t7pjwjb" orientation="portrait" xlink:type="simple" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink" /></boxed-text></p> </abstract>
