Mesoporous Silica Coated CeF3:Tb3+ Particles for Drug Release

CeF3:Tb3+ nanoparticles were successfully prepared by a polyol process using diethylene glycol (DEG) as solvent. After being coated with dense silica, these CeF3:Tb3+ nanoparticles can be coated with mesoporous silica using nonionic triblock copolymer EO20PO70EO20 (P 123) as structure-directing agen...
