This invention discloses a two-dimensional hydrogen germanene nanosheet, its preparation method, and its applications. The two-dimensional hydrogen germanene nanosheet has an ultrathin layered structure, with covalently modified hydrogen atoms on its surface, a lateral dimension of 100–300 nm, and a thickness of 5–10 nm. When activated by a specific wavelength laser, the two-dimensional hydrogen germanene nanosheet can photoexcite and generate singlet oxygen to destroy bacterial biofilms and kill bacteria. Simultaneously, it consumes local oxygen to create a staged hypoxic microenvironment, thereby inhibiting excessive inflammatory responses. After the light exposure ends, as the local oxygen level naturally recovers, it can further enhance the infection clearance function of immune cells, achieving continuous clearance of residual infection. This invention, through staged dynamic regulation of oxygen partial pressure, synergistically integrates direct bactericidal and immune clearance processes, ensuring antibacterial strength while reducing the risk of tissue damage and infection recurrence.
