A solar‐driven photothermal antibacterial device with independent functional layers with IrO 2 nanoaggregates‐based photothermal and UCNP‐based temperature sensing channels is reported in this work. The device could efficiently render bacteria inactive under solar irradiation through the accurate temperature monitoring during the photothermal process. This study provided valuable insight for the development of environmentally friendly and efficacious devices for photothermal bacterial inactivation.
