Multi-response metal cluster supercrystal materials, which can simultaneously display various such as color, photoluminescence, changes by bearing only one stimulus, have huge potential as stimuli-responsive intelligent material, but are rarely reported. Here, we report three Cu8 cluster supercrystals, Cu8-1, Cu8-2, and Cu8-3, with homologous cluster molecule units [Cu8(PNP)3(EPPTA)6](PF6)2 but distinct packing. These supercrystals display bright µs-long photoluminescence with a high quantum yield of up to 26.6% in solid-state at room temperature and aggregation-induced emission (AIE) characteristic. Superior thermal stability and blue-excitable bright yellow emission make Cu8-3 serve as a yellow phosphor for white light-emitting diode. Furthermore, upon being stimulated by solvent vapor and temperature, reversible supercrystal-to-supercrystal transformations can be witnessed accompanied by remarkable color and luminescence switching. This work not only provides a kind of Cu cluster supercrystal model but also motivates the further development of metal clusters in multi-response materials.
