Facile synthesis of ternary CdMnS QD-based hollow nanospheres as fluorescent/magnetic probes for bioimaging†
Abstract
In this study, fluorescent/magnetic dual-functional hollow nanospheres conducted by ternary CdMnS nanoparticles were synthesized via a facile Ostwald-ripening process. The as-prepared hollow nanospheres exhibited bright and tunable emission under excitation with a 365 nm UV light coupled with a strong MR signal, suggesting their promising applications in bioimaging.
