Non-toxic magnetic-luminescent iron oxide Mn2+-doped zinc sulfide (Fe3O4/ZnS:Mn) composite nanoparticles were synthesized through a one-step chemical deposition route using surface-treated Fe3O4 nanoparticles. High resolution electron microscopy and X-ray diffraction analyses showed that the two individual phases co-exist with a high degree of crystalline quality, no parasitic phases were found. The average crystallite size was around 9 nm. At the doping level of 20-25 wt% Mn2+, the luminescence signal of the composite at 598 nm is very intense, comparable to that of ZnS:Mn. This remarkable effect has been evidenced solely for Fe3O4 Cd2+-based composites, which are toxic. Moreover, the superparamagnetic response of Fe3O4 with near-zero coercivity is successfully retained in the composite. This notable bifunctionality of Fe3O4/ZnS:Mn can enable both in vivo and in vitro biomedical applications. (C) 2013 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
