Self-assembly induced luminescence of Eu3+-complexes for bioimaging application
E-Mail IMAGE: Schematic illustration of the synthetic protocol of the self-assembly induced luminescence (SAIL) of Eu-complex and its bioimaging application. view more Credit: @Science China Press The unique properties of rare earth (RE) complexes including ligand-sensitized energy transfer, fingerprint-like emissions and long-lived emissions, make them promising materials for many applications, such as optical encoding, luminescence imaging/sensing and time-resolved luminescence detection. In particularly, the use of RE luminescent materials for in vitro and in vivo imaging can e...
