Speed, resolution and sensitivity of today's fluorescence bioimaging can be drastically
improved by fluorescent nanoparticles (NPs) that are many‐fold brighter than organic dyes …

Squaraine dyes, a four-membered ring system with structural rigidity, possess unique
photoelectrical properties and are marked by their exceptionally sharp and intense …

Focal infections that are caused by antibiotic-resistant bacteria are becoming an ever-
growing challenge to human health. To address this challenge, a pH-responsive amphiphilic …

Abstract Development of ratiometric fluorescent hypochlorite probes with strong long
wavelength fluorescence in aqueous medium, high resistance to photobleaching, high …

Near-Infrared (NIR) dyes forming some of the photosensitizer agents show imaging and
therapy features by themselves. NIR dyes show photodynamic therapy by formation of …

Integration of two distinctive bactericides into one platform is a promising strategy to
enhance the efficiency of antimicrobial agents. We reported an efficient chemo-photothermal …

We report new derivatives of symmetric squaraine dyes with N, N-di aryl anilino substituents
that have high solubility and high absorptivity (ε= 0.71–4.1× 105 M–1 cm–1) in the red solar …

Polymethine dyes as photosensitizers for dye‐sensitized solar cells (DSCs) are reviewed.
The review provides a summary of design strategies, the main synthetic routes, and the …

Fluorescent nanoparticles (NPs), owing to their superior brightness, are an attractive
alternative to organic dyes. However, their cellular applications remain limited because of …

Since generating toxic reactive oxygen species is largely dependent on oxygen, bacteria-
infected wounds' hypoxia significantly inhibits photodynamic therapy's antibacterial …
