Herein we decorated Ag on the surface of SnS2 (Ag@SnS2), which has outstanding photothermal conversion capability and good biocompatibility. The decoration of Ag on SnS2 improved the absorption of near-infrared (NIR) light in comparison to SnS2, resulting in a temperature increase of 50 °C after 5 min of NIR light irradiation (1.9 W cm-2) and a photothermal conversion efficiency of 31.3%. Ag@SnS2 exhibits almost 100% growth inhibition of E. coli and S. aureus bacteria due to hyperthermia, with a concentration larger than 0.5 mg mL-1 and 5 min of NIR irradiation. Meanwhile, SEM images of treated bacterial cells showed the attachment of Ag@SnS2 on the cell surface and obvious cellular membrane destruction. Ag@SnS2 can also accelerate in vivo wound healing through PTT-induced bacterial disinfection. Therefore, Ag@SnS2 exhibits great potential for photothermal antibacterial application and wound disinfection.Graphene nanoribbons (GNRs), quasi-one-dimensional strips of graphene, exhibit a nonzero bandgap due to quantum confinement and edge effects. In the past decade, different types of GNRs with atomically precise structures have been synthesized by a bottom-up approach and have attracted attention as a novel class of semiconducting materials for applications in electronics and optoelectronics. We report the large-scale, inexpensive growth of high-quality oxygen-boron-oxygen-doped chiral GNRs with a defined structure using chemical vapor deposition. For the first time, a regular 2D self-assembly of such GNRs has been demonstrated, which results in a unique orthogonal network of GNRs. Stable and large-area GNR films with an optical bandgap of ∼1.9 eV were successfully transferred onto insulating substrates. This ordered network structure of semiconducting GNRs hol
