Fabrication of Upconverting Hybrid Nanoparticles for Near-Infrared Light Triggered Drug Release
Low tissue penetration and harmful effects of (ultraviolet) UV or visible light on normal tissue limit exploiting nanocarriers for the application of light-controlled drug release. Two strategies may solve the problem: one is to improve the sensitivity of the nanocarriers to light to decrease the ra...
