AB  - An emerging field of triplet energy migration-based photon upconversion (TEM-UC) 
      is reviewed. Highly efficient photon upconversion has been realized in a wide 
      range of chromophore assemblies, such as non-solvent liquids, ionic liquids, 
      amorphous solids, gels, supramolecular assemblies, molecular crystals, and 
      metal-organic frameworks (MOFs). The control over their assembly structures 
      allows for unexpected air-stability and maximum upconversion quantum yield at 
      weak solar irradiance that has never been achieved by the conventional molecular 
      diffusion-based mechanism. The introduction of the "self-assembly" concept offers 
      a new perspective in photon upconversion research and triplet exciton science, 
      which show promise for numerous applications ranging from solar energy conversion 
      to chemical biology.
