A small molecule-based NIR-II type-I photosensitizer (IT-IC) with a strong push-pull effect and good planar π-conjugated structure was synthesized. The IT-IC NPs exhibited strong light absorption, outstanding NIR-II fluorescence emission, excellent photothermal conversion and efficient type-I/II ROS generation, showing encouraging therapeutic outcomes for hypoxic tumors.
