Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In this study, we investigated the synthesis of near-infrared to visible upconversion nanoparticles and its application for near-infrared light induced photopolymerization and activation of photosensitizer. The upconversion light induced photopolymerization was successfully performed. Furthermore, the photosensitizer immobilized upconversion nanoparticles also generated reactive oxygen species under near-infrared excitation. These obtained nanoparticles can be applied for near-infrared stimuli responsive materials.
