Abstract

Recent time has witnessed a progressive growth in the fabrication multifunctional upconversion-magnetic hybrid nanostructured materials due to their important applications. The magnetic-luminescent hybrid nanostructures, which combine luminescent nanoparticles with magnetic nanoentities, exhibit potentials for enhanced bioimaging, controlled drug delivery, and enhanced thermal therapy. Such nanoparticles have potential to have simultaneous systematic use of theranostics and drug delivery and could lead to new opportunities in nanobiomedicines. In the present chapter, we have discussed an important class of magnetic-luminescent nanomaterials for their application in theranostic and drug delivery.
