Abstract:Two different components were introduced in the polyelectrolyte multiplayer shells of capsules – either Ag-nanoparticles or IR-dye – to induce absorption of light. Under laser illumination the capsules containing Ag-nanoparticles or IR-dye were deformed or cut, thus providing a venue for remote release of encapsulated materials. The experiments were conducted with a low power near infra-red continuous wave laser diode.
