Lanthanide coordination compounds have demonstrated potential as molecular thermometers, but little attention has been paid to their performance in the physiological temperature range within biological radiation windows. Here, the authors explore the thermometric properties of three NdIII complexes within the physiological temperature range operating in the first two biological windows, finding anti-thermal quenching effects that contribute to the thermometric performance.
