Laser-Synthesized Carbon-Coated Elemental Bismuth Nanoparticles for Sustained Reactive Oxygen Species Generation Under Visible-Light Irradiation.
Owing to its visible light-responsive electronic properties, redox activity, and potential biocompatibility, elemental bismuth is a promising candidate for photodynamic and chemodynamic therapies primarily via reactive oxygen species generation. However, accelerated surface oxidation of zero-valent bismuth suppresses p...
