Photothermal therapy using photo agents developed with high photothermal conversion efficiency under long-wavelength laser irradiation has been investigated in preclinical cancer treatment. Here this group reports coating mesoporous carbon nanomaterials with a lanthanide oxysulfide up-conversion material (Y2O2S:Yb3+, Er3+) with tumor targeting capability for in situ ocular melanoma tumor treatment.
