Simulation and experimental study reveals superior heating from graphene-coated gold nanostars under near-infrared light, indicating strong potential for photothermal therapy.
The findings of this study demonstrate that G-AuNSs exhibit superior photothermal heating performance compared to AuNSs under the investigated NIR-I and NIR-II irradiation conditions. This highlights the potential of graphene-coated gold nanostars for improved photothermal applications in the NIR-II range, while also acknowledging the limitations associated with phantom-based validation and wavelength-dependent excitation effects.
