Facile Synthesis of Amine-Functionalized Eu<sup>3+</sup>-Doped La(OH)<sub>3</sub> Nanophosphors for Bioimaging

<p>Abstract</p> <p>Here, we report a straightforward synthesis process to produce colloidal Eu<sup>3+</sup>-activated nanophosphors (NPs) for use as bioimaging probes. In this procedure, poly(ethylene glycol) serves as a high-boiling point solvent allowing for nanoscale...
