Near-Infrared Light-Triggered Dissociation of Block Copolymer Micelles Using Upconverting Nanoparticles

We demonstrate a novel strategy enabling the use of a continuous-wave diode near-infrared (NIR) laser to disrupt block copolymer (BCP) micelles and trigger the release of their “payloads”. By encapsulating NaYF4:TmYb upconverting nanoparticles (UCNPs) inside micelles of poly(ethylene oxide)-block-po...
