dc.description.abstract | This thesis entitled "The Synthesis and Evaluation of Cyclen Based Lanthanide
Complexes for Luminescent Sensing and as MRI Contrast Agents" is composed of
five chapters. In the first chapter the photophysical properties of lanthanide ions are
introduced and examples of the formation of mono and dinuclear complexes of these
lanthanide ions are discussed. The potential applications of these lanthanide based
complexes are outlined using literature examples. This is followed by a detailed
discussion of the synthesis and charaterisation of gold nanoparticles and their
functionalisation and stabilisation. The potential of these functionalised nanoparticles
as sensors, probes and MRI contrast agents as demonstrated in the literature is
discussed, with particular emphasis on the functionalisation of gold nanoparticles with
metal complexes. | |
