For the first time, we report novel aggregation-induced electrochemiluminescence (AIECL) of organic dots in aqueous media, with near-infrared II (NIR-II) luminescence peaked at 906 nm. Furthermore, a hybrid mechanism of ECL generation is revealed by various experiments in conjunction with theoretical calculations. This work opens a window for exploring efficient organic dye-based NIR-II AIECL emitters.
