چکیده
Here we present a novel large Stokes shifting NIR fluorescent nanomicelle through the encapsulation of a quantum dot/methylene blue FRET pair, which is employed as an excellent contrast reagent for NIR fluorescence bioimaging.

A unique approach toward near-infrared fluorescent probes for bioimaging with remarkably enhanced contrast
Near-infrared (NIR) fluorescent probes are attractive molecular tools for bioimaging because of their low autofluorescence interference, deep tissue penetration, and minimal damage to sample. However, most previously reported NIR probes exhibit small Stokes shift, typically less than 30 nm, and low fluorescence quantum yield, strictly limited contrast and spatial resolution for bioimaging. Here...

Near-infrared (NIR)-to-Visible upconversion fluorescent nanoparticles emit visible light upon NIR-light excitation, and are well suited for bioimaging, compared to the commonly used downconversionfluorescentmaterials.Thesenanoparticleshave advantages such as minimum photodamage to living organisms, weak background fluorescence, high detection sensitivity, and high light-penetration depth in tis...
متن کاملBoron difluoride complexes of 2′-hydroxychalcones and curcuminoids as fluorescent dyes for photonic applications
The field of fluorescent boron complexes has witnessed tremendous developments in recent years. In that context, we have investigated two series of boron difluoride complexes based on 2′-hydroxychalcone and curcuminoid ligands that represent naturally occurring pigment structures. The dyes display significantly large Stokes shift values, indicating that an ICT state is involved as lower-energy ...
متن کاملLarge blue shift of the biexciton state in tellurium doped CdSe colloidal quantum dots.
The exciton-exciton interaction energy of tellurium doped CdSe colloidal quantum dots is experimentally investigated. The dots exhibit a strong Coulomb repulsion between the two excitons, which results in a huge measured biexciton blue shift of up to 300 meV. Such a strong Coulomb repulsion implies a very narrow hole wave function localized around the defect, which is manifested by a large Stok...
متن کاملSynthesis of Novel Hyperbranched Polybenzo-Bisthiazole Amide with Donor–Acceptor (D-A) Architecture, High Fluorescent Quantum Yield and Large Stokes Shift
Two novel highly fluorescent hyperbranched polybenzobisthiazole amides with a donor–acceptor architecture and large Stokes shift were rationally designed and synthesized. The chemical structures of the prepared hyperbranched polymers were characterized using Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR) analysis, Hydrogen Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (1H-NMR) analysis, and Gel Permeation Chromat...
