摘要

Rare earth-based nanomaterialsRare earth nanomaterials for imaging" are widely used in biomedical applications for bio-imaging. NIR emission, good biocompatibility, and photo stability are the main factors help them to act as a good bio-imaging agent. It can also be used as a multimodal imaging agent. It is used in magnetic resonance imagingMagnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI)", biosensing, etc. In this chapter, we try to explain the synthesis, functionalization strategies, and the mechanisms behind the luminescence emission of lanthanide-doped nanoparticles. This chapter also explains the use of up and downconversion nanophosphors in biological imaging with the energy transfer mechanism.
