Dye aggregates that are templated to deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) can exhibit different packing arrangements and, as an optically active medium, spectral properties of interest. Steric effects and properties of the linker that tethers the dye to a DNA scaffold (a simple nucleotide oligomer or more complex architectures) can used to fine tune the packing arrangement of the dyes to obtain desirable spectral properties. To gain access to J-aggregates (head-to-tail packing arrangement) as a source of fluorescent materials, the present disclosure is directed to two strategies that utilize rigid linkers to promote J-packing. Devices and methods of use also are disclosed herein.
