Great review, cool photophysics--I learned something new!
Check out our perspective article in @materialshorizons.rsc.org where we bust common myths about Photon Avalanching Nanoparticles! doi.org/10.1039/D4MH...
Learn why photon avalanches are not avalanches of photons and many other fun facts about ANPs. #chemsky 🧪

Congrats to @spatra18.bsky.social for her paper in @commschem.nature.com (as part of the special issue on Photoswitchable Materials) showing how protonation can be used as a 2ndry handle to control the photophysics of hydrazones switches, resulting in short half-lives & NIR activation. #chemsky 🧪⚗️
Just out: Visible to near-infrared light responsive halochromic hydrazones
Visible to near-infrared light responsive halochromic hydrazones
Communications Chemistry, Published online: 19 September 2026; doi:10.1038/s42004-026-02202-4Protonation can introduce an extra handle, besides light, in controlling the properties of photoswitches, opening the way to multi-stimuli responsive functional materials. Here, the authors report a pair of halochromic quinoline-based hydrazone photoswitches that show divergent photophysical properties based on the protonation site, yielding switches that can be activated using visible to near-infrared light.
