Luminescent Porous Silicon Nanoparticles for Continuous Wave and Time-Gated Photoluminescence Imaging
Abstract
Luminescent porous silicon nanoparticles (LpSiNPs) display red-orange photoluminescence (PL) that provides large penetration depth for precise deep-tissue imaging and diagnostics. Herein, we describe in detail the fabrication process of porous silicon nanoparticles (pSiNPs), activation of photoluminescence, quantum yield measurement, and PL imaging. LpSiNPs perform as imaging probe for both the continuous wave and time-gated PL imaging.
Keywords: Photoluminescence; Porous silicon nanoparticles; Quantum dots; Quantum yield; Time-gated imaging.
