In the past few decades, organosilicon fluorescent materials have attracted great attention in the field of fluorescent materials not only due to their abundant and flexible structures, but also because of their intriguing fluorescence properties, distinct from silicon-free fluorescent materials. Considering their unique properties, they have found broad application prospects in the fields of chemosensor, bioimaging, light-emitting diodes, etc. However, a comprehensive review focusing on this field, from the perspective of their catalogs and applications, is still absent. In this review, organosilicon fluorescent materials are classified into two main types, organosilicon small molecules and polymers. The former includes fluorescent aryl silanes and siloxanes, and the latter are mainly fluorescent polysiloxanes. Their synthesis and applications are summarized. In particular, the function of silicon atoms in fluorescent materials is introduced. Finally, the development trend of organosilicon fluorescent materials is prospected.
