Organic materials that emit colorful fluorescence in condensed phases such as solids (crystals, thin films, or glasses),[1–5] liquid crystals,[6] and liquids [7] are useful for various applications ranging from organic light-emitting diodes and wavelength-tunable lasers to ultrasensitive sensors. Under these extremely concentrated conditions, however, photophysical processes are rather complex involving energy migration/transfer, charge separation, self-absorption, and excimer formation, which often give rise to low fluorescence quantum yields (FF).[8] Therefore, rational molecular designs are essential, and inevitably, the intermolecular interactions in the condensed phases that govern these nonradiative decay processes need to be taken into consideration.Among fluorescent organic materials, π-conjugated polymers (CPs) are attractive for organic optoelectronic applications owing to their distinguishing mechanical properties, processability, and electronic conductivity. In fact, CPs have been key materials in the field of organic optoelectronics.[9] An effective strategy for attaining solid-state emissive CPs is to isolate the π-conjugated backbone and inhibit interpolymer interactions.[3–5] For example, Swager et al.[3] have created a variety of highly emissive CPs that have rigid protecting frameworks such as triptycenes, and Anderson and co-workers [4] have exploited polyrotaxane-type CPs, that is, CPs that are sheathed by many cyclodextrins. In addition to these pioneering researches, some so-called insulated molecular
