Semiconducting polymer nanoparticles (SPNs) have been used as a new class of photonic materials with great potential in biomedical applications, but their synthetic method is limited to nanoprecipitation. Semiconducting polymer amphiphiles (SPAs) that can spontaneously self-assemble into nanoparticl...
