Most of the PS molecules fluoresce under excitation with light and fluorescence imaging (FLI) can be employed to evaluate their biodistribution and assess the intratumoral delivery before the therapeutic light application. Light absorption can also be utilized to track a PS by photoacoustic imaging (PAI). However, an excitation of the PS during assessment of its biodistribution through FLI or PAI results in premature photobleaching and causes toxicity. An involvement of a separate fluorescent (luminescent) or photoacoustic imaging probe, which provides imaging contrast in combination with PS without excitation of the latter, can allow for “see-and-treat” approach with FLI/PAI guided PDT. On the other hand, it is well-known that near-infrared (NIR) light is able to penetrate relatively deeper in comparison with visible light, due to reduced absorption and scattering. In addition to the conventional NIR window (NIR-I, ∼700–950 nm), other transparency windows for biological tissues have recently been identified at ∼1000–1700 nm (NIR-II), benefiting optical bioimaging due to the reduced tissue scattering and autofluorescence. Multiple NIR-II imaging probes are currently introduced both for luminescence and photoacoustic bioimaging, providing the significantly improved signal to noise ratio (SNR), imaging depth and resolution. Their combinations with PS are also being increasingly reported, though no review on this hot topic currently exists. Herein, a state-of-the-art in NIR photoluminescence (including fluorescence) and photoacoustic imaging guided PDT is presented. NIR-I and NIR-II spectral ranges are considered, along with both molecular and nanoparticle formulations for imaging guided PDT. It is expected that this review will provide a solid foundation for future translational studies in the domain of NIR imaging guided photodynamic therapy and drug delivery.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":376,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Photochemistry and Photobiology C: Photochemistry Reviews","volume":"58 ","pages":"Article 100652"},"PeriodicalIF":13.6,"publicationDate":"2024-01-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139470367","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"化学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The objective of this review is to critically analyse the synthesis methods, characterization techniques, and photocatalytic performance of mesoporous titania films for photocatalysis. The article begins by providing a short overview of the chemical-physical processes involved in photocatalysis of titania. It highlights the need for efficient photocatalytic materials with enhanced surface area and light harvesting capabilities. Subsequently, the synthesis methods for creating mesoporous titania films are discussed, including sol-gel chemistry, templating approaches, and self-assembly techniques. Emphasis is placed on the control of pore size, distribution, and film thickness to optimize the photocatalytic performance. The influence of synthesis parameters on the film porosity, crystallinity, and surface area is examined in detail. Furthermore, the review highlights recent advancements in the field, including strategies to enhance the photocatalytic performance of mesoporous titania films through doping, surface modification, and heterostructure formation. These approaches aim to improve the light absorption, charge separation, and reactant accessibility, thus maximizing the utilization of solar energy for efficient photocatalysis. In conclusion, mesoporous titania films demonstrate great potential as effective photocatalytic materials. Their unique structural features, combined with proper synthesis and characterization, contribute to enhanced photocatalytic performance. Further research and development in this area may lead to the design and fabrication of advanced mesoporous titania films for a wide range of environmental and energy applications.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":376,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Photochemistry and Photobiology C: Photochemistry Reviews","volume":"58 ","pages":"Article 100646"},"PeriodicalIF":13.6,"publicationDate":"2023-11-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S1389556723000771/pdfft?md5=4b8f64967ed43c2afa273cfa517e88bb&pid=1-s2.0-S1389556723000771-main.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"138501412","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"化学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
