The objective is the synthesis of lanthanide-based porous metal organic framework (MOF) nanoparticles and their application in luminescence thermometry. We will gain understanding in the factors governing the synthesis of the porous Ln-MOF nanoparticles by in situ monitoring of their synthesis. The synthesis of this promising class of materials will be controlled with respect to nanoparticle size, morphology, surface stabilisation and luminescence properties. The latter will be achieved by co-doping of a second group 3 or lan-thanide metal, by addition of guest species such as InP quantum dots or small gold clusters for application as ratiometric luminescence thermometers.
