A facile strategy to realize a single/double photon excitation-dependent photosensitizer for imaging-guided phototherapy against HeLa cancer cells at separate irradiation channels

Abstract

A novel difluoroboron fluorophore with an electron donor–acceptor conjugated structure was synthesized with 26.5% fluorescence quantum yield, 18 035 GM two-photon absorbing cross-section, and undetectable two-photon fluorescence, resulting in 25% 1O2 quantum yield. The unique optical behavior of CNFBBN enabled one-photon fluorescence imaging and two-photon phototherapy against HeLa cancer cells, irradiated at separate wavelengths.
