Frequency upconversion luminescence (FUCL) based on hot-band absorption has attracted considerable attention in bioimaging and phototherapy fields for deep-seated cancer treatment. Photoimmunotherapy, a promising therapeutic approach induced by photodynamic therapy (PDT), can selectively kill cancer cells, reverse the immunosuppressive system, boost host immune response, and elicit durable antitumor immunity. To date, few near-infrared organic photosensitizers for photodynamic immunotherapy have been reported based on hot-band absorption. Herein, we report an upconversion luminescent phthalocyanine photosensitizer PdPc(OBu)8 with anti-Stokes emission at 748 nm and highly efficient singlet oxygen generation with hot-band absorption at 808 nm. Taking advantage of nanoliposomes, FUCL phthalocyanine nano-photosensitizers (PdPc NPs) were obtained to reduce the aggregation-caused quenching and improve water solubility and biocompatibility. PdPc NPs could be effectively accumulated in tumor tissues through intravenous administration, causing FUCL-induced PDT under 808 nm irradiation. Considering its finite immune responses and tumor ablation after PDT, a combination of PdPc NP-based PDT with checkpoint inhibitors (anti-PD-L1) for near-infrared photoimmunotherapy has been used to potentiate the antitumor efficacy that could simultaneously ablate primary tumors and inhibit the progression of distant tumors. This study can promote the development of upconversion-based PDT combined with immunotherapy for tumor precision therapy.

To avoid the overheating effect of excitation light and improve the efficacy of photodynamic therapy (PDT) of upconversion nanoplatform, a novel nanoprobe based on 808 nm-excited upconversion nanocomposites ( [email protected] @mSiO 2 ) with low heating effect and deep penetration has been successfully constructed for targeted upconversion luminescence , magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and high-efficacy PDT in HER2-overexpressed breast cancer. In this nanocomposite, photosensitizers (Ce6) were covalently conjugated inside of mesoporous silica to enhance the PDT efficacy by shortening the distance of fluorescence resonance energy transfer and to decrease the cytotoxicity by preventing the undesired leakage of Ce6 . Compared with [email protected] 2 @Ce6, [email protected] @mSiO 2 greatly promoted the singlet oxygen generation and amplified the PDT efficacy under the excitation of 808 nm laser . Importantly, the designed nanoprobe can greatly improve the uptake of HER2-positive cells and tumors by modifying the site-specific peptide, and the in vivo experiments showed excellent MRI and PDT via intravenous injection by modeling MDA-MB-435 tumor-bearing nude mice . Our strategy may provide an effective solution for overcoming the heating effect and improving the PDT efficacy of upconversion nanoprobes, and has potential application in visualized theranostics of HER2-overexpressed breast cancer.

808 nm excited Nd3+ doped upconversion nanoparticles (UCNPs) have become a new research hotspot due to their reduced thermal effect when applied in a water-rich system. Different from Tm3+-mediated energy migration upconversion of Tb3+, in this work, NaYF4:Yb/Tb@NaYF4:Yb@NaNdF4:Yb@NaYF4 core–shell–shell–shell nanoparticles were designed based on the Yb3+ sensitized cooperative energy-transfer process to realize photon upconversion. NaYF4:Yb served as the migration layer, separating the activator Tb3+ from the sensitizer Nd3+ and minimizing the deleterious cross-relaxation between them. At 40% Yb3+ doping concentration in the NaYF4:Yb layer, bright green luminescence was achieved under 808 nm excitation. Meanwhile, the presence of Yb3+ in the sensitization layer (NaNdF4:Yb) reduced Nd3+ cross-relaxation, leading to improved energy migration efficiency of Nd3+ → Yb3+. Finally, the incorporation of an inert NaYF4 shell resulted in a significant luminescence boost. These nanoparticles can be dispersed in water after surface modification and could be effectively excited after laser penetration of 3 cm of water, indicating the enormous potential of the designed UCNPs in the biological system.

Multifunctional nanoparticles with marvelous temperature sensing and photothermal conversion are preferable in photothermal therapeutic applications. Herein, nanocomposites of NaYF 4 :Er 3+ /Yb 3+ @NaYF 4 :Nd 3+ /Yb 3+ core–shell upconversion nanoparticles (UCNPs) modified by polydopamine (PDA) were designed to achieve temperature sensing and efficiency of photothermal conversion. It has been found that under the irradiation of 808 nm laser, temperature sensing can be realized on the basis of the fluorescence intensity ratio of Er 3+ green light emission. In addition, the photothermal conversion ability of the UCNPs modified by PDA is greatly improved. Moreover, Nd 3+ as activator endows UNCPs excited by 808 nm, which can avoid overheating due to the absorption of the excitation band (980 nm) in water. Therefore, the multifunctional nanoparticles are expected to become an effective drug for cancer therapy in the future and this research will stimulate interest in designing multifunctional nanoparticles that are biocompatible, especially for in vivo tumor diagnosis.

Small size optical-magnetic bifunctional upconversion nanoparticles (UCNPs) that can be effectively triggered by 808 nm exhibit distinct advantages of improved tissue penetrating depth, minimized overheating effect, possible for multimodal imaging and high clearance rate, which therefore are considered as desirable candidates for bioapplications. In this research, the 808 nm triggered sub-20 nm β-NaYF 4 :Yb 3+ /Er 3+ @NaGdF 4 :Yb 3+ /Nd 3+ @NaGdF 4 active-core@active-shell@inert-shell structured UCNPs with optical and magnetic bifunctional properties were developed by seed-mediated growth method with NaOA as sodium source instead of the generally used NaOH. Through optimizing Nd 3+ doping concentration and outermost NaGdF 4 inert-shell thickness, the optical-magnetic bifunctional core-shell-shell structured UCNPs exhibited strong UC emission intensity and improved magnetic property . Furthermore, the core-shell-shell NPs were validated to be no cytotoxicity by cell viability assessment. Therefore, this research may open a general avenue for the synthesis of small size multifunctional UCNPs for practical bioapplications without overheating.

In this research, a thermally activated upconversion luminescence (UCL) probe with ratiometric temperature sensing under 1064 nm and 808 nm excitation was designed. Especially, Nd3+, Tm3+ and Ce3+ were doped in rare earth nanoparticles (RENPs) as UCL modulators. By optimizing the elements and ratios, the excitation wavelength is successfully modulated to 1064 nm excitation with UCL intensity enhanced. Additionally, the prepared RENPs have a significant temperature response at 1064 nm excitation and can be used for thermochromic coatings. The intensity ratio of three-photon UCL (1064 nm excitation) to two-photon UCL (808 nm excitation) as an exponential function of temperature can be used as a ratiometric temperature detector. Therefore, this designed thermochromic coatings may enable new applications in optoelectronic device and industrial sensor.

Luminescent materials usually suffer from thermal quenching at high temperature due to the aggravation of nonradiation relaxations. Herein, a giant enhancement of up conversion (UC) luminescence is observed in negative thermal expansion (NTE) Y 2 W 3 O 12 :Nd phosphor upon increasing the temperature from 310 to 790 K. In addition, the temperature-dependent UC emission is reversible. To penetrate into the mechanisms, the temperature-dependent luminescence intensity and lifetime are investigated for Nd doped negative and positive thermal expansion (PTE) phosphors. Based these investigation, we infer that the underlying mechanism of the giant enhancement for Y 2 W 3 O 12 :Nd phosphor are due to combined effects of phonon assisted absorptions and contraction of NTE crystals. Moreover, the observation of temperature-dependent near-infrared spectra (NIR) can support the mechanism from the other side. The present findings pave the way to overcome thermal quenching of Nd 3+ ions and explore new thermal enhancement materials sensitized by Nd 3+ ions.

Given the limitations of traditional antimicrobial strategies and the pressing demand for efficient, biocompatible sterilization, photochemistry-mediated approaches have emerged as promising solutions, leveraging light-matter interactions for targeted pathogen elimination. In this study, A nanocomposite was engineered through the integration of the excellent near-infrared (NIR) photothermal properties of MXene (V₂CT x ) with biocompatible Ag 2 S nanoparticles. Subsequent to this, surface modification with polydopamine (PDA) was carried out via self-polymerization. The abundant functional groups of PDA not only enhanced biocompatibility but also amplified NIR photothermal conversion, synergizing with the intrinsic photothermal activity of V₂CT x . The Ag 2 S/V 2 CT x @PDA nanocomposite demonstrated dual functionality under 808 nm NIR light, efficiently converting photon energy into heat (reaching a temperature of 50.2 °C) and generating photocatalytic reactive oxygen species (ROS). Experimental results revealed an exceptional sterilization efficiency of 99.99% against Staphylococcus aureus ( S. aureus ) within 25 min of irradiation at a power density of 0.74 W/cm 2 using the optimal Ag 2 S-30%/V 2 CT x @PDA composite. This high-performance antibacterial effect is attributed to the synergistic combination of photothermal conversion and photocatalytic ROS generation, providing a rapid antibacterial strategy.

In this paper, intense up- and down-conversion luminescence were successfully achieved in well designed and synthesized core–shell structured NaLuF4:Gd/Yb/Er@NaLuF4:Yb@NaLuF4:Nd/Yb@NaLuF4 nanoparticles (NPs) simultaneously under 808 nm continuous-wave laser excitation. The morphologies, luminescent properties and energy transfer mechanism of the nanoparticles were studied in detail. By employing this design, multimodal imaging performance including near-infrared down-conversion optical imaging and X-ray computed tomography (CT) imaging were realized in one kind of NPs. Furthermore, the 808 nm excited optical temperature sensing property of the synthesized NPs was realized in a wide temperature range by monitoring the intensities of up- and down-conversion luminescence. This study provides a novel platform based on lanthanide fluoride nanoparticles for multifunctional imaging and temperature sensing in one system.

hydrogel were evaluated qualitatively and quantitatively in 4T1 mouse breast
cancer cells. The retention, photothermal efficacy, therapeutic effects and
systemic toxicity of the hydrogel were assessed in tumor bearing mouse
model.Results The Cu2MnS2 nanoplates
with a diameter of about 35 nm exhibited satisfying serum stability, photo-heat
conversion ability and repeated laser exposure stability. The hydrogel
encapsulation did not negatively influence the above features of the

Infected wounds produce pus and heal slowly. To address this issue, we developed a rapid-setting SP/SA@BP-C hydrogel by combining sodium alginate (SA) and soy protein (SP) with black phosphorus (BP) grafted with clarithromycin (Cla) and incorporating Ca 2+ for chelation. This hydrogel dressing exhibits excellent photothermal (PT) and photodynamic (PD) bacteriostatic effects without biotoxicity, making it suitable for treating infected wounds. Characterization confirmed its successful fabrication, and the bacteriostatic effect demonstrated over 99 % efficacy through the synergistic effects of PT, PD, and Cla. Cellular studies indicated nontoxicity and a promoting effect on cell proliferation (121.6 %). In the mouse-infected wound model, the hydrogel led to complete healing in 12 days, with good recovery of the skin's superficial dermal layer and appendages. Consequently, SP/SA@BP-C is a natural hydrogel dressing with promising properties.

Background It is important to explore effective treatment for liver cancer. Photodynamic therapy (PDT) is a novel technique to treat liver cancer, but its clinical application is obstructed by limited depth of visible light penetration into tissue. The near-infrared (NIR) photosensitizer is a potential solution to the limitations of PDT for deep tumor tissue treatment.Purpose We aimed to investigate 808 nm NIR light-excited UCNPs@mSiO2-Ce6-GPC3 nanocomposites for PDT in liver cancer.Methods In our study, 808 nm NIR light-excited upconversion nanoparticles (UCNPs) were simultaneously loaded with the photosensitizer chlorin e6 (Ce6) and the antibody glypican-3 (GPC3), which is overexpressed in hepatocellular carcinoma cells. The multitasking UCNPs@mSiO2-Ce6-GPC3 nanoparticles under 808 nm laser irradiation with enhanced depth of penetration would enable the effective targeting of PDT.Results We found that the UCNPs@mSiO2-Ce6-GPC3 nanoparticles had good biocompatibility, low toxicity, excellent cell imaging in HepG2 cancer cells and high anti-tumor effect in vitro and in vivo.Conclusion We believe that the utilization of 808 nm NIR excited UCNPs@mSiO2-Ce6-GPC3 nanoparticles for PDT is a safe and potential therapeutic option for liver cancer.
