Cross-relaxation among sensitizers is commonly regarded as deleterious in fluorescent materials, although favorable in photothermal agents. Herein, we coated Prussian blue (PB) on NaNdF4 nanoparticles to fabricate core-shell nanocomplexes with new cross relaxation pathways between the ladder-like en...
