In article number 1700038 , Michael Hsiao, Ru‐Shi Liu, and co‐workers, report an 808 nm near‐infrared‐triggered photodynamic therapy (PDT) strategy using upconversion nanoparticle‐poly‐ l ‐lysine@graphitic carbon nitride quantum dots (UCNP‐PLL@CNs) nanocomposites. The 808 nm UCNP‐PLL@CNs are expected to make PDT more humane, controllable, and low‐cost, which will inevitably lead to considerable improvements in clinical care.
