The invention discloses a nano-mesoporous granular 
drug carrier with the 
photothermal effect and a preparation method of the nano-mesoporous granular 
drug carrier, and solves the problems of single treatment method, large toxic and / or side effects, poor effect and the like in the prior art. The preparation method is characterized by comprising the following steps: preparing 
mesoporous silica nano particles with adjustable particle size and aperture from a surfactant serving as a structure-directing agent and tetraethoxysilane serving as a 
silicon source through a 
sol-gel self-assembling process; through modification with an amino functional group, storing a large content of anti-
cancer drugs in mesoporous channels of the 
mesoporous silica nano particles; adsorbing 
graphene quantum dots on the surfaces of the 
mesoporous silica nano particles to obtain the nano-mesoporous granular 
drug carrier which can efficiently convey the anti-
cancer drugs and has the 
photothermal effect. The particle size of the 
drug carrier is 20 to 200 nm, and the mesoporous aperture is 2 to 10 nm; the mesoporous channels are in tree 
branch-shaped distribution. The nano-mesoporous granular 
drug carrier has the function of pH responsive and 
controlled release of the anti-
cancer drugs and the good 
photothermal effect, has the advantages of realizing a medical 
chemotherapy and 
photothermal therapy combination 
cancer treatment method and has a wide popularization and application value.
