The research in circularly polarized luminescence has attracted wide interest in recent years. Efforts on one side are directed toward the development of chiral materials with both high luminescence efficiency and dissymmetry factors, and on the other side, are focused on the exploitations of these materials in optoelectronic applications. This review summarizes the recent frontiers (mostly within five years) in the research in circularly polarized luminescence, including the development of chiral emissive materials based on organic small molecules, compounds with aggregation-induced emissions, supramolecular assemblies, liquid crystals and liquids, polymers, metal-ligand coordination complexes and assemblies, metal clusters, inorganic nanomaterials, and photon upconversion systems. In addition, recent applications of related materials in organic light-emitting devices, circularly polarized light detectors, and organic lasers and displays are also discussed.
