N-doped carbon dots for dual-modality NIR fluorescence imaging and photothermal therapy

Abstract Photothermal therapy (PTT), a rapidly advancing non-invasive cancer treatment modality, utilizes photothermal agents to convert light energy into thermal energy, enabling precise and localized destruction of cancer cells. Recent developments have focused on photothermal agents operating in...
