Rational control of the supramolecular aggregation of π-conjugated molecules plays an important role in determining their optoelectronic properties and applications. Here, we report a systematic study of the factors, including solvent polarity, concentration, and surfactants, that affect the aggregation behavior of a brominated hydroazaheptacene tetraimide (HATI) and its thiophene-substituted derivative, Th-HATI, as near-infrared fluorophores, in both nonpolar and polar solvents.
