The development of lanthanide based coordination polymer and metal-organic framework (CPs and MOFs) nanomaterials as novel functional (e.g. luminescent and magnetic) materials has attracted significant attention in recent times. This is in part due to the wide, but yet unique coordination requirements that the f-metal ions possess, as well as their attractive physical properties, which are often transferred to the bulk material. Hence, there is no surprise, that the design, synthesis and characterisation of lanthanide based CP/MOF materials (featuring either 'pure' lanthanides, or a mixture of both f- and d-metal ions) for applications in gas and small molecule absorption, storage, conversion/catalysis, chemical sensing, bio-imaging, drug delivery, etc. has been a prominent feature in the scientific literature. In this review, we give a selected overview of some of the recent developments in the area of Ln CP/MOF based nanomaterials for sensing, optical materials and bio-medicine research, as well as making reference to some more established examples, with the view of introducing, particularly to new researchers to the field, the powerful and attractive features of lanthanide based materials.
近年来，镧系配合物聚合物和金属有机骨架（CPs 和 MOFs）纳米材料作为新型功能（例如发光和磁性）材料的发展引起了人们的极大关注。这在一定程度上是由于 f 金属离子具有广泛但独特的配位要求，以及它们吸引人的物理性质，这些性质通常会传递到块状材料中。因此，毫不奇怪，设计、合成和表征镧系配合物/金属有机骨架材料（具有“纯”镧系元素或 f 和 d 金属离子的混合物）用于气体和小分子吸收、储存、转化/催化、化学传感、生物成像、药物输送等领域一直是科学文献中的一个突出特征。在这篇综述中，我们选择介绍了一些在传感、光学材料和生物医学研究领域基于 Ln CP/MOF 的纳米材料的最新进展，并参考了一些更成熟的例子，以期特别向该领域的新研究人员介绍基于镧系元素材料的强大而有吸引力的特性。
