Abstract Photomediated Atom Transfer Radical Polymerization (photoATRP) is an activator regeneration method, which allows for the controlled synthesis of well‐defined polymers via light irradiation. Traditional photoATRP often limited by need high‐energy ultraviolet or violet light.

This drawback can circumvented introduction catalytic amount photocatalysts, absorb visible and/or NIR and, therefore, controlled, regenerative ATRP performed with dual‐catalytic cycle.
