Abstract
Multifunctional nanoparticles were prepared by directly welding superparamagnetic Fe3O4 nanoparticles and Au shells together with highly cross-linked polyphosphazene as "glue" in a facile but effective way. The as-prepared particles can simultaneously take advantages of both magnetization of Fe3O4 core for magnetic resonance imaging diagnosis and strong near-infrared absorption of Au nanoshell for photothermal therapy.
