Abstract

The formation of dual-component organic nanoparticles by a modified emulsion-templated freeze-drying approach leads to aqueous nanosuspensions showing fluorescence (Förster) resonance energy transfer (FRET) from within a distribution of single nanoparticles. The combination of both FRET dyes within dual-component nanoparticles (
