Covalently Functionalized Egyptian Blue Nanosheets for Near-Infrared Bioimaging

open access: yesACS Applied Bio Materials, 2022
Fluorophores emitting in the near-infrared (NIR) wavelength region present optimal characteristics for photonics and especially bioimaging. Unfortunately, only few NIR fluorescent materials are known and even fewer are biocompatible. For this reason, the scientific interest in designing novel NIR fluorophores is very high. Egyptian Blue (CaCuSi4O10, EB)
