Luminescence and X-ray Absorption Properties of Uniform Eu<sup>3+</sup>:(H<sub>3</sub>O)Lu<sub>3</sub>F<sub>10</sub> Nanoprobes

Due to the high atomic number of lutetium and the low phonon energy of the fluoride matrix, Lu-based fluoride nanoparticles doped with active lanthanide ions are potential candidates as bioprobes in both X-ray computed tomography and luminescent imaging. This paper shows a method for the fabrication...
