The Rare-Earth Elements Doping of BaGdF<sub>5</sub> Nanophosphors for X-ray Photodynamic Therapy

It is known that the initiation of photodynamic therapy (PDT) in deep-seated tumors requires the use of X-rays to activate the reactive oxygen species generation in deep tissues. The aim of this paper is to synthesize X-ray nanophosphors and analyze their structural and luminescence characteristics...
