Engineered Substrate‐Free Small Molecules for Enhanced Raman Scattering and Photothermal Conversion Efficiency

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A molecular engineering strategy is developed to increase the stacking‐induced intermolecular charge transfer‐enhanced Raman scattering (SICTERS) intensity and photothermal conversion efficiency of electron donor‐acceptor‐donor (D–A–D) molecules. This approach enables to design SICTERS‐mediated photo‐theranostic agents for substrate‐free Raman image ...
