A new generation of photothermal theranostic agents is developed based on Cu 3 BiS 3 nanocrystals. A computed tomography imaging response and photothermal effect, as well as near‐infrared fluorescence emission, can be simultaneously achieved through Cu 3 BiS 3 nanocrystals rather than frequently used nanocomposites. These results provide some insight into the synergistic effect from bimetal sulphide semiconductor compounds for photothermal theragnosis therapy.
