Nanoaggregates of phenothiazine–trithienyltriazine compounds with a different degree of branching (TRZ1–3) were investigated in a water dispersion with time-resolved spectroscopy. Room temperature phosphorescence was highlighted for TRZ1, reactive oxygen species production for TRZ2, and red thermally activated delayed fluorescence for TRZ3. These aggregation induced emission materials hold great potential for imaging-guided photodynamic therapy.

Abstract

Nanoaggregates of phenothiazine–trithienyltriazine compounds with a different degree of branching (TRZ1–3) were investigated in a water dispersion with time-resolved spectroscopy. Room temperature phosphorescence was highlighted for TRZ1, reactive oxygen species production for TRZ2, and red thermally activated delayed fluorescence for TRZ3. These aggregation induced emission materials hold great potential for imaging-guided photodynamic therapy.
