Phosphorescence of pure organic emitters at room temperature has been a huge challenge in recent years and is widely investigated in the scientific world. Currently, these fascinating compounds are used for numerous purposes such as the fabrication of electronic devices as well as bioimaging. The highest benefit of these organic emitters is their easy and cheap synthesis, the lack of expensive metals and their robustness towards molecular oxygen. In this Minireview, we focus on recent achievements in the field of pure organic phosphors based on aggregation‐ and crystallisation‐induced emission. For more details see Minireview by J. Voskuhl et al. on page 12221 ff.
