However,fundamental understanding on the structure-function relationship between crystalline/defective structures and photothermal properties is still unclear. To address this, herein,we have developed an "in-situ confined oxidation-reduction"strategy to regulate the defect features of molybdenum oxide NPs in the dual-mesoporous silica nanoreactor. Especially, the effects of crystalline structure/oxygen defects of molybdenum oxides on the photothermal performances were investigated by facilely tuning the amount of molybdenum resource and the reduction temperature. As a photothermal nanoagent, the optimal defective molybdenum oxide NPs encapsulated in PEGylated porous silica nanoreactor(designated as MoO_(3)@PPSNs) exhibit excellent biological stability and strong localized surface plasmon resonance effect in nearinfrared absorption range with the highest photothermal conversion efficiency up to 78.7% under 808 nm laser irradiation. More importantly, the remarkable photothermal effects of MoO_(3)@PPSNs were comprehensively demonstrated both in vitro and in vivo. Consequently, we envision that the plasmonic MoO_(3)NPs in a biocompatible porous silica nanoreactor could be used as an efficient photothermal therapy agent for photothermal ablation of tumors.展开更多
