Silver core/TiO2 shell nano-wires have been successfully prepared on fluorine doped tin oxide coated glass substrate via a glycothermal process assisted by a photochemical process. The morphology, diameter, length, and density of synthesized core/shell nano-wires could be varied by photochemical reaction time. The fabricated samples were characterized with X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, and energy dispersive X-ray. We suggested a mechanism to explain the growth of the silver core/TiO2 shell nano-wires.

Simulated-daylight photodynamic therapy (SD-PDT) may be an efficacious strategy for treating melanoma because it can overcome the severe stinging pain, erythema, and edema experienced during conventional PDT. However, the poor daylight response of existing common photosensitizers leads to unsatisfactory anti-tumor therapeutic effects and limits the development of daylight PDT. Hence, in this study, we utilized Ag nanoparticles to adjust the daylight response of TiO, acquire efficient photochemical activity, and then enhance the anti-tumor therapeutic effect of SD-PDT on melanoma.
