Abstract It is generally considered that photoacoustic imaging (PAI) and fluorescence (FLI) cannot be enhanced concurrently, as they are dependent on competitive photophysical processes at the single‐molecule level. Herein, we reveal BDTR9‐OC8 BDTR9‐C8 , which have identical π‐conjugated backbones but substituted by side chains of different rigidity, show distinct phototheranostic properties in aggregated state. The NIR‐II FLI PAI brightness nanoparticles 4.6 1.4 times compared with...
