Recent progress in multifunctional conjugated polymer nanomaterial-based synergistic combination phototherapy for microbial infection theranostics
2022, Coordination Chemistry ReviewsCitation Excerpt :Laser light-induced therapy was discovered by Niels Finsen, who was awarded the Nobel Prize in Medicine and Physiology in 1903 for the treatment of lupus vulgaris using ultraviolet (UV) light [14]. The first medical application of laser radiation to remove the tumor was reported by Goldman in 1966 [23]. Recently, phototherapy antimicrobial strategies have attracted increasing research attention in nanomedicine due to their good controllability.
Nanoscale metal organic frameworks and their applications in disease diagnosis and therapy
2022, Microchemical JournalCitation Excerpt :As a non-invasive form of radiation therapy, PDT and photothermal therapy (PTT) are the two main forms of phototherapy to achieve tumor-killing effect. PTT is a thermal treatment method that converts near-infrared light energy into high temperature to achieve necrosis and apoptosis of cancer cells, and such a strategy is non-invasive and easy to implement [203]. The photothermal agent (PTA) is the key element of PTT and absorbs the energy of photons.
Non-linear optical study of BODIPY-benzimidazole conjugate by solvatochromic, Z-scan and theoretical methods
2017, Optical MaterialsCitation Excerpt :Non-linear optics (NLO) has been an upsurging field of optoelectronics in recent decades due to substantial increase in the demand of high end technologies such as high definition (HD) display [1,2], high speed transmitting optical fibres [3–5], and integrated lasers medicine [6–8].
