The Effect of Size and Thermal Treatment on the Photoluminescent Properties of Europium-Doped SiO<sub>2</sub> Nanoparticles Prepared in One Pot by Sol-Gel

Europium (Eu)-doped silica nanoparticles have attracted great interest for different applications, in particular in biomedicine as biosensors or for tissue regeneration. Sol-gel is the most common process used to prepare those particles, with size varying from tens to hundreds of nanometers. In this...
