Abstract

La0.45Ce0.45F3:Tb (10 mol% Tb) nanoparticles was synthesized via sonochemical method and then coated with silica (SiO2) shells through a microemulsion process, resulting in the formation of core/shell structured LaCeF3:Tb/SiO2 nanoparticles. The obtained core/shell LaCeF3:Tb/SiO2 nanoparticles are spherical and uniform in size (average size about 60 nm), strongly fluorescent, and long fluorescence lifetime (1.87 ms). This kind of nanoparticles was water-soluble, which could be applied in biological labeling and other fields.
