We report the facile synthesis and easy operation of a smart delivery system based on core鈥搒hell structured magnetic mesoporous silica nanocomposites covalently grafted with light-responsive azobenzene derivatives, which integrates magnetic targeting and stimuli-responsive release property. Irradiation with visible light triggers the release of guest molecules loaded in the mesopores.
