Abstract

Two-dimensional Bi2O2Se quantum dots (QDs) are synthesized by a facile top-down approach in article number 1905208 by Yue Chen, Zhenyou Jiang, Jundong Shao, an co-workers. Boasting large photothermal conversion efficiency and excellent photoacoustic performance as well as suitable biodegradability, the Bi2O2Se QDs facilitate photoacoustic imaging of whole tumors in photothermal cancer therapy. The semiconducting QDs are promising as a near-infrared-triggered theranostic agent in cancer therapy.
