چکیده

This paper describes thin films comprising acenes dispersed in a conjugated polymeric host that have a ratiometric photoluminescence response to singlet oxygen. These films also respond to irradiation of protein-bound sensitizers, which represents a solution to the problem of protein-conjugated polymer non-specific interactions.

Photosensitizer-doped conjugated polymer nanoparticles with high cross-sections for one- and two-photon excitation.

We report a novel nanoparticle that is promising for photodynamic therapy applications, which consists of a π-conjugated polymer doped with a singlet oxygen photosensitizer. The nanoparticles exhibit highly efficient collection of excitation light due to the large excitation cross-section of the polymer. A quantum efficiency of singlet oxygen production of 0.5 was determined. Extraordinarily la...

Energy transfer and device performance in phosphorescent dye doped polymer light emitting diodes

Singlet and triplet–triplet energy transfer in phosphorescent dye doped polymer light emitting devices were investigated. Poly(N-vinylcarbazol) and poly@9,98-di-n-hexyl-2,7-fluorene-alt1,4-(2,5-di-n-hexyloxy)phenylene] ~PFHP! were selected as the host polymer for the phosphorescent dopants fac-tris~2-phenylpyridine! iridium~III! @Ir(ppy)3# and 2,3,7,8,12,13, 17,18-octaethyl-21H,23H-porphyrin pl...

Photosensitizer-doped conjugated polymer nanoparticles for simultaneous two-photon imaging and two-photon photodynamic therapy in living cells.

Photosensitizer doped conjugated polymer nanoparticles have been prepared by incorporating polyoxyethylene nonylphenylether (CO-520) into the nanoparticles using a re-precipitation method. The conjugated polymer, poly[9,9-dibromohexylfluorene-2,7-ylenethylene-alt-1,4-(2,5-dimethoxy)phenylene] (PFEMO), was used as the host matrix to disperse tetraphenylporphyrin (TPP) and an energy donor to enha...

Dynamic control of protein-protein interactions.

The capability to selectively and reversibly control protein-protein interactions in antibody-doped polypyrrole (PPy) was accomplished by changing the voltage applied to the polymer. Polypyrrole was doped with sulfate polyanions and monoclonal anti-human fibronectin antibodies (alphaFN). The ability to toggle the binding and dissociation of fibronectin (FN) to alphaFN-doped polypyrrole was demo...
