Nanoparticles (NPs) that are capable to convert near-infrared (NIR) irradiation into thermal energy have been demonstrated as the robust media for tumour curing. In this scenario
the photothermal performance of NPs greatly depends on their size
morphology
surface property
as well as the self-assembly architectures. Therefore
the practical applications of photothermal NPs in cancer therapy are determined by the technique progresses of nano-fabrications and multi-functional integration. In this scenario

we summary a series of methods to enhance NP photothermal performance
such as control preparation of nanostructures
directing NPs self-assembly into specific architectures
and further photothermal polymer coating. The combination of these issues ensures the improvement of photothermal performance
