Conjugated/nonconjugated alternating copolymers for enhanced NIR-II fluorescence imaging and NIR-II photothermal-ferrotherapy

, BBTD6/Fe@PMA effectively inhibited 4T1 cells and tumor progression under 1064 nm laser irradiation. Consequently, this work provides new CNACPs by incorporating nonconjugated linkers into a conjugated backbone to design more effective NIR-II fluorescence imaging and NIR-II photothermal therapy agents.
