Abstract

Abstract: In this work, we prepared porous silicon (pSi) nanostructures decorated with gold nanoparticles, as probes for cell tissue imaging under two‐photon excitation. We also demonstrated that the Au/pSi nanosystems induced cytotoxicity and phototoxicity under two‐photon excitation. Abstract : The two‐photon fluorescence imaging and photodynamic therapy of breast cancer cells was studied with porous silicon nanoparticles decorated with gold nanoparticles and functionalized with mannose ethylsquarate as the targeting agent.
