The design of dendrimers with various chromophores has attracted significant attention in light of the dual effect of the luminescence of the chromophores and the morphology of the synthesized dendrimers. Recent developments in this field stem from their wide potential applications, including organic light-emitting diodes, photonic switches and upconversion lasers, as well as sensors and electronic devices. The focus of this comprehensive review is on the design and properties of various classes of light-harvesting dendrimeric materials.
