In article number 1805549 , Xiaowei Chen, Jie Liu, Hua Feng, and co‐workers prepare a new aggregation‐induced emission (AIE) luminogen (AIEgen) through molecular engineering by varying a single atom from sulfur to selenium. The resultant AIE nanoparticles have an emission tail extending to 1200 nm with a high quantum yield. The light from these nanoparticles allow for clear vessel imaging.
