Abstract

By utilizing a drug coordinated to Eu3+ as a blocker of luminescence resonance energy transfer from the Eu3+ complex to gold nanotriangles, we successfully implemented multiple functions into one nanocomposite; it operates under single near infrared light and is efficient for the temperature/luminescence monitoring of drug release and synergistic turning-on of photothermal chemotherapy.
