Light in the second near-infrared window, especially beyond 1500 nm, shows enhanced tissue transparency for high-resolution in vivo optical bioimaging due to decreased tissue scattering, absorption, and autofluorescence. Despite some inorganic luminescent nanoparticles have been developed to improve...
