Near-infrared-II activated inorganic photothermal nanomedicines
Abstract
The emergence of near-infrared-II (NIR-II) activated photomedicines has extended the penetration depth for noninvasive theranostics, especially for photothermal nanomedicines. The current early development stage for NIR-II activated photomedicines has focused on creating a greater variety of photothermal agents (PTAs) with superior photothermal conversion ability. However, there is no thorough review for NIR-II inorganic PTAs and most comparisons of the photothermal performances of NIR-II inorganic PTAs are made with NIR-I PTAs. This review will first discuss about the key mechanisms of NIR-II absorption and photothermal conversion. Subsequently, this review will summarize recently developed advanced NIR-II inorganic PTAs based on the dominant inorganic elements and provide a comparison of their NIR-II photothermal performances. The nanostructure design, enhancement strategies and potential biomedical applications will be listed and discussed. We hope this review will further inspire active development and study of NIR-II activated inorganic PTAs with good photothermal conversion ability, multifunctionality, biocompatibility or biodegradability, and disease targeting ability.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
