Abstract

) often elude simple structure-to-property relationships based on existing knowledge. Today, research in the field is aided by quantum chemistry calculations which offer insight into CPL properties and serve as a predictive tool for the rational design of efficient CPL-active materials. The present review is divided into three sections: (1) a comprehensive presentation of the theoretical foundation of CPL calculations, electronic structure description, environment effects, vibronic modulation, band shape broadening, and aggregate simulation; (2) an extensive literature survey, organized according to a structural criterion; and (3) a critical reassessment of literature data, accompanied by a statistical analysis, aimed at offering the best practices for accurate CPL calculations and identifying the key structural and electronic features that enable the simulation-guided design of novel CPL emitters.
