Abstract

Hybrid nanostructures containing neodymium-doped nanoparticles and infrared-emitting quantum dots constitute highly sensitive luminescent thermometers operating in the second biological window. They demonstrate that accurate subtissue fluorescence thermal sensing is possible. As a service to our authors and readers, this journal provides supporting information supplied by the authors.
