Two-photon excited luminescence of structural light enhancement in subwavelength SiO2 coating europium ion-doped paramagnetic gadolinium oxide nanoparticle and application for magnetic resonance imaging
Background
Oxides of lanthanide rare-earth elements show great potential in the fields of imaging and therapeutics due to their unique electrical, optical and magnetic properties. Oxides of lanthanide-based nanoparticles enable high-resolution imaging of biological tissues by magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), computed tomography (CT) imaging, and fluorescence imaging. In addition, they can be used to detect, treat, and regulate diseases by fine-tuning their structure and function. It remains challenging to achieve safer, efficient, and more sensitive nanoparticles for clinical applications through the structural design of functional and nanostructured rare-earth materials.
Result
In this study, we designed a mesoporous silica-coated core–shell structure of europium oxide ions to obtain near-infrared two-photon excitation fluorescence while maintaining high contrast and resolution in MRI. We designed enhanced 800 nm photoexcitation nanostructures, which were simulated by the finite-difference method (FDM) and finite-difference time-domain method (FDTD). The nanoparticle structure, two-photon absorption, up-conversion fluorescence, magnetic properties, cytotoxicity, and MRI were investigated in vivo and in vitro. The nanoparticle has an extremely strong optical fluorescence response and multiple excitation peaks in the visible light band under the 405 nm continuous-wave laser excitation. The nanoparticle was found to possess typical optical nonlinearity induced by two-photon absorption by ultrafast laser Z-scan technique. Two-photon excited fluorescence of visible red light at wavelengths of 615 nm and 701 nm, respectively, under excitation of the more biocompatible near-infrared (pulsed laser at 800 nm). In an in vitro MRI study, a T1 relaxation rate of 6.24 mM−1 s−1 was observed. MRI in vivo showed that the nanoparticles could significantly enhance the signal intensity in liver tissue.
Conclusions
These results suggest that this sample has applied potential in visible light fluorescence imaging and MRI.
