Radioenhancing efficiency of HfO2 vs. Hf6-based and Hf12-based nMOFs. a Enhanced APF fluorescence of HfO2, Hf6-DBA, and Hf12-DBA over H2O at equivalent Hf concentrations of 20 μM. n = 6. b Illustration of efficient hydroxyl radical generation upon X-ray irradiation and diffusion through porous Hf12-DBA nanoplates. c Optical images of radioluminescence from Hf6-DBAn (1 mM in ethanol), Hf12-DBAn (1 mM in ethanol), and pure ethanol at an X-ray dose rate of 2.93 Gy/min. d Linear fits of radioluminescence intensities with respect to X-ray tube currents of Hf6-DBA and Hf12-DBA after subtraction of pure ethanol background. Central data points and error bars represent mean ± s.d. values, respectively. Hydroxyl detection result was obtained without repetition. The radioluminescence images were obtained with two repetitions to afford similar results
