Abstract

Phototherapies offer treatment of tumors with high spatial selectivity. Photodynamic therapy (PDT) consists in the administration of a photosensitizer (PS) followed by local photoirradiation with light of specific wavelength. The excited states of the PS interact with biomolecules and molecular oxygen producing reactive oxygen species (ROS), which initiate cell death. Photothermal therapy (PTT) employs photothermal agents to harvest the energy from light and convert it into heat to produce a temperature increase of the surrounding environment leading to cell death. Due to their good biocompatibility and unique photophysical properties, carbon-based materials are suitable for application in PDT and PTT. In particular, graphitic carbon nitride (g-C
