Quantum dots as templates for self-assembly of photoswitchable polymers: Small, dual-color nanoparticles capable of facile photomodulation

A photomodulatable amphiphilic polymer has been synthesized with a backbone of poly[isobutylene-alt-maleic anhydride] and pendant dodecyl alkyl chains, Lucifer Yellow (LY) fluorescent probes, and diheteroarylethenes photochromic (PC) groups. The latter serve as reversible UV-activated FRET acceptors...
