  • Surface functionalization with SiO(2)-NH(2) and conjugation with biotin and avidin.
  • Characterization using X-ray diffraction (XRD), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR), UV/vis absorption, and luminescence spectroscopy.

    • Main Results:

    • Successfully synthesized short pillar-like CeF(3):Tb(3+) nanoparticles (11x5 nm).
    • Achieved successful biofunctionalization with amino groups, biotin, and avidin.
    • Demonstrated that biofunctionalization minimally impacts luminescence, with strong green emission (543 nm) from Tb(3+).

    Conclusions:

    • The synthesized CeF(3):Tb(3+) nanoparticles can be effectively biofunctionalized.
    • The luminescence properties are well-preserved after functionalization.
    • These nanoparticles show significant potential as robust and bright fluorescent probes for biological applications.
