Abstract

Abstract:

Due to simple operation, high resolution and real-time imaging,fluorescence technology has been widely used in detection and bioimaging. The second near-infrared window dyes(NIR-Ⅱ, 10001700 nm) have longer emission wavelength, less interference with light scattering and tissue autofluorescence, resulting in higher temporal and spatial resolution and deeper imaging depth in tissue imaging. In this review, we mainly introduce the designed mechanism and research progress in bioimaging based on NIR-Ⅱ dyes, and further give an outlook in the following studies.

Key words: second near-infrared, fluorescenceimaging, nanomaterials, conjugated polymer
