Low Power Upconverted Near‐IR Light for Efficient Polymeric Nanoparticle Degradation and Cargo Release

By encapsulating NaYF4:Tm.Yb upconverting nanocrystals in UV-degradable polymer capsules, it is possible to access efficient polymer photodegradation and remotely controlled release using near-IR laser light at an unprecedentedly low power.
