Coordination chemistry has been widely studied in lanthanide complexes, where organic
ligands are used to chelate individual lanthanide ions, and the complexes are broadly used …

Many treatments of energy transfer (ET) phenomena in current literature employ incorrect
arguments and formulae and are not quantitative enough. This is unfortunate because we …

Carbon dots (C-dots) are superior in the aspects of excellent water solubility, good
biocompatibility, environmentally friendliness and non-blinking fluorescence. In this work …

Herein, we report the design and synthesis of biocompatible Yb3+ complexes for near-
infrared (NIR) living cell imaging. Upon excitation at either the visible (Soret band) or red …

The optical thermometer has shown great promise for use in the fields of aeronautical
