Cations Functionalized Lanthanide Metal-Organic Frameworks: Tunable Luminescence, Upconversion Luminescence, and Efficient Reactive Oxygen Species Storm Generation for Photodynamic Antibacterial Applications.
Photodynamic antibacterial activity is an emerging application for lanthanide metal-organic frameworks (Ln-MOFs) that remains in its early stages of development. Herein, we report the solvothermal synthesis of a series of cations functionalized Ln-MOFs (denoted Cl-Ln-MOFs), constructed from 1,3-bis(4-carboxyphenyl)imid...
