FTIR spectra (area of interest) of both QD-loaded PSMPs and unloaded, plain PSMPs, measured with two different PSMP concentrations, that reveal concentration and preparation-related changes in the intensity of the carbonyl peak at 1744 cm−1. The slight offset of the IR spectra (baseline value below 0) is caused by the normalization procedure. The complete IR spectra are provided in the SI (see Figure S4).
