Porous Nd2(SiO4)3 nanoparticles were successfully synthesized by a controlled route. This kind of silicate nanoparticle could be excited by near-infrared (NIR) radiation (808 nm) and triggered a NIR emission (1066 nm) at room temperature. By monitoring the 1066 nm emission, the long-lived luminescent lifetime was determined to be 19.5 µs. These NIR nanoparticles with appropriate diameters (<100 nm) were suitable for cell assays. MTT assays showed that the cytotoxicity of the porous Nd2(SiO4)3 nanoparticles was very low. Therefore, these porous silicate nanoparticles are potential biosafe high-performance NIR biolabeling materials.
