Abstract
Sun block for nanoparticles: Unintentional photorelease triggered by UV light is a problem in photodynamic therapy. Encapsulating upconverting nanoparticles containing photoswitches in a UV-blocking amphiphilic polymer shuts down the one-photon process and only allows two-photon-driven photochemistry. Thus, UV light is blocked while NIR light can reach the nanoparticle core and trigger photorelease. Copyright © 2013 WILEY-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, Weinheim.
