Shaping Ti3C2 MXene Nanospheres for Precision Near‐Infrared Photothermal Therapy
Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.In this study, we report producing spherical MXenes via fs laser fragmentation of Ti3C2 flakes in liquid medium. The nanoparticles demonstrated pronounced light absorption and high photothermal conversion efficiencies of 68% and 63% under heating with NIR‐I and NIR‐II lasers, respectively.
