Synthesis of lipid-black phosphorus quantum dot bilayer vesicles for near-infrared-controlled drug release.

Abstract

Black phosphorus quantum dots are incorporated into liposomal bilayers to produce a drug delivery system with excellent near-infrared (NIR) photothermal properties and drug release capability controlled by light. In vitro experiments demonstrate its good biocompatibility and NIR-light-induced chemo-photothermal antitumor efficiency.
