Changing the CPN preparation conditions generates nanoparticles of the same conjugated polymer with enhanced photostability and microorganism inactivation following photoexcitation.
We describe the synthesis of monodispersed, silica encapsulated conjugated polymer nanoparticles, their colour tunability and use in imaging HeLa cells.
This review summarizes the recent advances in conjugated polymer dots (Pdots), including their fabrication and property manipulation, as well as application in biomedical imaging, sensing and therapy.
Semiconducting polymer dots (Pdots) are novel fluorescent probes with relatively high brightness, fast emission rate, and excellent photostability. This review systematically summarizes their applications for in vitro biosensing.
This review highlights design strategies, structure–property relationships, and key challenges toward advancing n-type polymer acceptors for high-performance all-polymer solar cells.
