Lanthanide (Ln3+)-enriched upconversion nanoparticles (UCNPs) with high dopant concentrations have garnered significant attention due to their unique optical properties. However, practical applications are hindered by the deleterious concentration quenching effect. Herein, through kinetic modeling of Er3+ excited-state dynamics employing energy diffusion theories, we demonstrate that in LiErF4 UCNPs predominantly originates from long-range migration 4I13/2 level toward surface and lattice defects, rather than conventionally attributed cross-relaxation mechanism. Such migration-mediated dissipation can be effectively suppressed synergistic engineering strategies combining passivation, spatial confinement via a sandwiched LiYF4@LiErF4@LiYF4 core-shell-shell architecture restrict migration, incorporation Tm3+ as trapping centers, boosting quantum yield <0.01% 2.29% (980 nm@70 W cm-2). The established mechanistic framework material design principles provide critical insights for heavily doped UCNPs, particularly advancing application potential single-particle spectroscopy optoelectronic nanodevices.

Abstract Second near‐infrared (NIR‐II) fluorescence imaging has emerged as a breakthrough technology for accurately revealing complex mechanisms in vivo owing to its high sensitivity, deeper tissue penetration, spatiotemporal resolution, and throughput. This review provides comprehensive overview of NIR‐II imaging, specifically focusing on the materials used, including single‐walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs), quantum dots (QDs), rare‐earth nanoparticles (RENPs), organic fluorophores (OFs). It details their development, application, advantageous performance imaging. Furthermore, this highlights an approach dynamic multiplexed that enables multitarget detection, providing powerful tool effectively assessing pathological processes biological vivo. Finally, it explores aspects translational medicine addressing challenges, future prospects related material detection equipment, unmet biomedical applications.

Despite approximately 40% of all patients with cancer developing pulmonary metastases in the course their disease, it remains a diagnostic challenge clinical practice. Herein, we propose fluorogenic probe (CPRG) gamma-glutamyl transferase (GGT)-triggered signal turn-on for near-infrared fluorescence imaging (NIRF) and urinalysis orthotopic metastatic tumors living mice. CPRG comprised four key moieties: GGT-reactive moiety, hemicyanine-based unit, polyethylene glycol linker, an active tumor targeting moiety. Such tailored is intrinsically nonfluorescent only activates its NIRF signals presence GGT. After intratracheal administration into lungs tumor-bearing mice, can efficiently accumulate sensitively real-time imaging. Relying on high renal clearance efficiency (∼70% ID), be rapidly excreted through kidneys assessed by chemotherapeutic efficacy cisplatin. This study not reports tracers but also provides guidelines development molecular probes companion diagnosis cancer.
