To address the imaging diagnostics and therapeutic predicaments for choroidal melanoma, a novel nanoplatform is developed through the integration of an aggregation-induced emission photosensitizer with two-dimensional MXene nanosheets (MX@PEG-MeoTTPy). This nanoplatform simultaneously exhibits distinctive properties and multiple functions including exceptional biocompatibility, efficient type I reactive oxygen species generation, high-quality fluorescence bioimaging, mild near-infrared (NIR) photothermal performance and superior cellular uptake. Furthermore, a thermosensitive hydrogel composite is engineered to encapsulate the nanosheets, enabling controlled and sustained release over 72 h via NIR irradiation and tumor microenvironment-induced gel–sol transition. The nanoplatform leverages synergistic mild photothermal therapy and photodynamic therapy, leading to precise and sustained tumor ablation through pyroptosis-mediated cell death. Both in vitro and in vivo studies validate that the nanosystem serves as an effective theranostic agent for dual-modal imaging-guided synergistic therapy, offering a multifaceted therapeutic strategy for intraocular tumors and showing significant potential for clinical application in choroidal melanoma therapy.</p>","PeriodicalId":714,"journal":{"name":"Nano-Micro Letters","volume":"18 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":36.3,"publicationDate":"2026-03-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://link.springer.com/content/pdf/10.1007/s40820-026-02077-z.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"147441903","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"材料科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Herein, we predicted and screened a bilayer graphite carbon-supported Ir-N<sub>4</sub>/Fe-N<sub>4</sub> catalyst with high ORR activity using density functional theory calculations. Subsequently, various bimetallic single atom supported on 3D ordered macroporous carbon were rationally designed and experimentally synthesized via a colloidal microsphere template-confined reaction method. As anticipated, the resulting Ir-N<sub>4</sub>/Fe-N<sub>4</sub> bimetallic single-atom catalysts (IrFe-SACs) exhibit superior ORR activity and durability, reaching a half-wave potential of 0.928 V. The IrFe-SACs also demonstrate outstanding performance in Zn-air batteries, including a high discharge power density (314 mW cm⁻<sup>2</sup>) and excellent cycling stability (~ 1650 cycles over 550 h). Further experimental characterizations and theoretical analysis reveal that introducing interlayer-adjacent Ir-N<sub>4</sub> sites facilitates the transition of Fe-N<sub>4</sub> from a low-spin state to a medium-spin state, which optimizes the spin polarization of Fe 3d orbitals and enhances the non-localization of the Fe–O/OH molecular orbital, thereby significantly improving the ORR intrinsic activity and durability of atomic Fe-N<sub>4</sub> sites. </p><div><figure><div><div><picture><source><img></source></picture></div></div></figure></div></div>","PeriodicalId":714,"journal":{"name":"Nano-Micro Letters","volume":"18 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":36.3,"publicationDate":"2026-03-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://link.springer.com/content/pdf/10.1007/s40820-026-02108-9.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"147351051","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"材料科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
