Spatial electronic communications of chromophores are both theoretically and practically fascinating. Despite intramolecular or intermolecular exciton coupling was observed in multichromophoric oligomers and J-aggregates, respectively, it is unusual that they both occur in the same molecule. Herein, ethene-bridged aza-BODIPY dimers with intramolecular exciton splitting have been developed. By encapsulating the dimer into F-127 polymer, J-type aggregated nanoparticles were produced, which showed obvious intermolecular exciton coupling and dramatically redshifted absorption and emission peaks at 936 and 1003 nm, respectively. The fabricated nanoagents have high photothermal conversion ability (η=60.3 %) and are ultra-photostable, leading to complete tumor ablation with 915 nm laser irradiation. This phototherapeutic nanoplatform through modulating both intra- and intermolecular exciton couplings is a valuable paradigm for developing photothermal agents for tumor treatment.
发色团的空间电子通讯在理论和实践上都很吸引人。尽管在多色团寡聚物和 J 聚集体中分别观察到了分子内或分子间激子耦合,但它们同时出现在同一个分子中是不寻常的。本文中,设计了具有分子内激子分裂的乙烯桥联氮杂 BODIPY 二聚体。通过将二聚体封装到 F-127 聚合物中,制备了 J 型聚集纳米粒子,其表现出明显的分子间激子耦合,并分别在 936nm 和 1003nm 处显示出显著的红移吸收和发射峰。所制备的纳米试剂具有高光热转换能力(η=60.3%)和超高光稳定性,导致在 915nm 激光照射下完全消融肿瘤。通过调节分子内和分子间激子耦合,这种光热治疗纳米平台为开发用于肿瘤治疗的光热试剂提供了一个有价值的范例。
