Abstract
- Up to the neck!Bio‐safe upconversion fluorescent nanocrystals (NaYF4:Er,Yb) and biocompatible superparamagnetic iron oxide nanocrystals (SPION) were effectively combined by means of a general “neck‐formation” strategy, forming a size‐controlled, Cd2+‐ and Gd3+‐free, silica‐shielded, magnetic upconversion fluorescent oligomer (SMUFO), bimodal cancer probe that offers high resistance to photoquenching as well as a synergistic T2‐weighted magnetic resonance enhanced effect (see graphic).
