Oxygen Vacancy Defect Enhanced NIR‐II Photothermal Performance of BiOxCl Nanosheets for Combined Phototherapy of Cancer Guided by Multimodal Imaging

Narrow photo-absorption range and low carrier utilization are significant barriers that restrict the antitumor efficiency of 2D bismuth oxyhalide (BiOX, X = Cl, Br, I) nanosheets (NSs). Introducing oxygen vacancy (OV) defects can expand the absorption range and improve carrier utilization, which are crucial but also challenging. In this study, a series of BiO
