Multifunctional nanotheranostic agent with high performance for tumor site-specific generation of singlet oxygen (1O2) as well as imaging-guidance is crucial to laser-mediated photodynamic therapy. Here, we introduced a versatile strategy to design a smart nanoplatform using phase change material (PCM) to encapsulate photosensitizer (zinc phthalocyanine, ZnPc) in copper sulfide loaded Fe-doped tantalum oxide (Fe-mTa2O5@CuS) nanoparticles. When irradiated by 808 nm laser, the PCM is melted due to the hyperthermia effect from CuS nanoparticles, inducing the release of ZnPc to produce toxic 1O2 triggered by 650 nm light with very low power density (5 mW/cm2). Then, the produced heat and toxic 1O2 can kill tumor cells in vitro and in vivo effectively. Furthermore, the special properties of Fe-mTa2O5 endow the nanoplatform with excellent computed tomography (CT) and T1-weighted magnetic resonance imaging ( T1-MRI) performance for guiding and real-time monitoring of therapeutic effect. This work presents a feasible way to design smart nanoplatform for controllable generation of heat and 1O2, achieving CT/ T1-MRI dual-modal imaging-guided phototherapy.
