Tracking of Short Distance Transport Pathways in Biological Tissues by Ultra-Small Nanoparticles
In this work, ultra-small europium-doped HfO2 nanoparticles were infiltrated into native wood and used as trackers for studying penetrability and diffusion pathways in the hierarchical wood structure. The high electron density, laser induced luminescence, and crystallinity of these particles allowed...
