Rare-Earth-Metal (Nd<sup>3+</sup>, Ce<sup>3+</sup> and Gd<sup>3+</sup>)-Doped CaF<sub>2</sub>: Nanoparticles for Multimodal Imaging in Biomedical Applications

Rare-Earth-Metal (Nd<sup>3+</sup>, Ce<sup>3+</sup> and Gd<sup>3+</sup>)-Doped CaF<sub>2</sub>: Nanoparticles for Multimodal Imaging in Biomedical Applications

Here, we describe the synthesis of a novel type of rare-earth-doped nanoparticles (NPs) for multimodal imaging, by combining the rare-earth elements Ce, Gd and Nd in a crystalline host lattice consisting of CaF<sub>2</sub> (CaF<sub>2</sub>: Ce, Gd, Nd). CaF<sub>2</su...
