Article Abstract

Fluorescent probes in the NIR-II region provide high bioimaging quality. Optimizing the probe structure to achieve NIR-II imaging is ongoing, but remains challenging. Herein, increasing the electron withdrawing ability of the substituent in monochlorinated BODIPY greatly adjusted the emission wavelength from the NIR-I to NIR-II region, giving an efficient design strategy of NIR-II probes.

π-Bridge engineering strategy: tailoring S-xanthene dyes with strong absorption for high-efficiency photothermal therapy.

NIR-II probes show great potential for fluorescence imaging (FLI) and therapeutics, where the molar extinction coefficient (MEC), a pivotal optical parameter, governs their imaging quality and therapeutic efficacy. Nevertheless, engineering NIR-II probes with ultrahigh MEC remains a formidable challenge, limiting their biomedical applications. In this work, we designed a superior NIR-II D-π-A-π-D probe, SCU-SX-T, which features an S-xanthene core as the conjugate acceptor, a diphenylamine (DPA) rotor, and π-bridge that induces bathochromic shifts in absorption/emission spectra while enhancing molecular rigidity and planarity.

Near-infrared (NIR) luminescent materials are pivotal for advanced optoelectronic and biomedical applications, yet attaining efficient emission in the NIR-II region (950-1400 nm) remains challenging. Here, we introduce a ligand cationization strategy for designing copper(i) iodide-organic hybrid materials that emit in the NIR-II region (920-1120 nm) with PLQYs up to 8.58%.

Low-Cost Near-Infrared Photothermal Crystalline Coordination Polymers.

Crystalline coordination polymers (CCPs) have emerged as promising platforms for photothermal conversion due to their structural tunability. However, the development of high-performance CCPs is often limited by the high cost of photoactive ligands. In this study, we report a low-cost, scalable approach to synthesize three CCPs─-, -, and -─via a solvothermal method using the inexpensive industrial precursor tetrafluoroterephthalonitrile, which is converted in situ into a tetraoxolene ligand.

"Dual-Key"-Controlled Activatable Semiconducting Polymer Nanoprobe for Highly Precision Phototheranostics Under NIR-II Light Excitation.

The development of activatable optical probes has proved to be a promising approach to improve the accuracy of phototheranostics. However, most such probes are usually responsive to single pathological factor and visible-near-infrared-I light upon activation, which restricts the theranostic specificity and tissue penetration depth, respectively. Herein, we develop a nitric oxide (NO) and acidity dual-stimuli responsive semiconducting polymer nanoprobe for activatable near-infrared-II (NIR-II) photoacoustic imaging (PAI) and photothermal therapy (PTT).
