Abstract Photothermal therapy, a novel approach in cancer treatment, utilizes photothermal conversion agents to convert energy into thermal energy. This method offers advantages such as low toxicity, non-invasiveness, and high precision. In contrast to conventional near-infrared-Ⅰ-responsive photothermal therapy, the near-infrared-Ⅱ-induced photothermal therapy has provoked significant attention due to its lower energy dissipation in biological tissues, deeper tissue penetration, and higher spatial resolution. The key topic of the near-infrared-Ⅱ-induced photothermal therapy is to develop photothermal conversion agents with facile synthesis processes and high photothermal conversion efficiencies. The present work fabricated CuFe2O4 nanospheres via one-step solvothermal method using hexahydrate ferric chloride and dihydrate copper chloride as raw materials and ethylene glycol as the solvent, and conducted characterizations such as XRD, SEM, Raman spectroscopy, vibrating sample magnetometry, and absorption spectroscopy of the prepared samples. It furthermore investigated the photothermal heating and imaging performance, conversion efficiency, and stability of the CuFe2O4 nanospheres under biosafe power of both near-infrared-Ⅰ and -Ⅱ irradiation, and examined their in vitro killing effect to 4T1 tumor cells. It can be concluded that the CuFe2O4 nanospheres exhibit excellent photothermal conversion performance under near-infrared irradiation, and significant applicative potential in the field of near-infrared-responsive photothermal cancer treatment.
