A novel strategy toward one-pot hydrothermal synthesis of copper sulfide nanoplates-decorated reduced graphene oxide (RGO–CuS) composites was developed. CuS nanoplates were successfully loaded onto the surface of RGO in the hydrothermal procedure, which was confirmed by transmission electron microscopy, UV-Vis–NIR and Raman spectroscopy. The as-synthesized RGO–CuS composites showed pronounced enhanced optical absorbance in near infrared (NR) region and higher photothermal conversion efficiency than noncomposite GO and CuS nanoplates. The RGO–CuS materials were used in photothermal ablation of cancer cells with a 980[Formula: see text]nm laser irradiation and showed improved performance than CuS nanoplates.
