Well-defined, reversibly light-responsive amphiphilic diblock copolymer grafted with spiropyran, was prepared by reversible addition–fragmentation chain transfer (RAFT) polymerization. The copolymer self-assembles into polymeric micelles in water and exhibits reversible dissolution and re-aggregation characteristics upon ultraviolet (UV) and visible (Vis)-light irradiation. The fluorescence response of spiropyran immobilized onto the copolymer was light switchable. When nitro-benzoxadiazolyl derivative (NBD) dyes are encapsulated into the core of the micelles, a reversible, light-responsive, dualcolor fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET) system is constructed and processed, which is well regulated by alternatively UV/vis irradiation. We anticipate these photoswitchable and FRET lighting up nanoparticles will be useful in drug delivery and cell imaging or tracking synchronously.
