| Abstract | In this report, uniform LaF3:Ln mesoporous spheres have been synthesized by a facile and mild in situ ion-exchange method using yolk-like La(OH)3:Ln mesoporous spheres as templates, which were prepared through a self-produced bubble-template route. It was found that the structures of the final LaF3:Ln can simply be tuned by adding a polyetherimide (PEI) reagent. LaF3:Ln hollow mesoporous spheres (HMSs) and LaF3:Ln flower-like mesoporous spheres (FMSs) were obtained when assisted by PEI and in the absence of PEI. The up-conversion (UC) luminescence results reveal that the doping of Nd3+ ions in LaF3:Ln can markedly influence the UC emissions of the products. It is interesting that an obvious thermal effect is achieved due to the energy back-transfer from Tm3+ to Nd3+ ions under 980 nm near-infrared (NIR) irradiation. The LaF3:Yb/Er/Tm/Nd HMSs show good biocompatibility and sustained doxorubicin (DOX) release properties. In particular, upon 980 nm NIR irradiation, the photothermal effect arising from the Nd3+ doping induces a faster DOX release from the drug release system. Moreover, UC luminescence images of LaF3:Yb/Er/Tm/Nd HMSs uptaken by MCF-7 cells exhibit apparent green emission under 980 nm NIR irradiation. Such a multifunctional carrier combining UC luminescence and hyperthermia with the chemotherapeutic drugs should be of high potential for the simultaneous anti-cancer therapy and cell imaging. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
