Enhancing luminescence in lanthanide-doped upconversion nanoparticles.
The enthusiasm for research on lanthanide-doped upconversion nanoparticles is driven by both a fundamental interest in the optical properties of lanthanides embedded in different host lattices and their promise for broad applications ranging from biological imaging to photodynamic therapy. Despite the considerable progress made in the past decade, the field of upconversion nanoparticles has bee...
متن کاملEnhanced Upconversion Luminescence in Yb3+/Tm3+-Codoped Fluoride Active Core/Active Shell/Inert Shell Nanoparticles through Directed Energy Migration
The luminescence efficiency of lanthanide-doped upconversion nanoparticles is of particular importance for their embodiment in biophotonic and photonic applications. Here, we show that the upconversion luminescence of typically used NaYF₄:Yb3+30%/Tm3+0.5% nanoparticles can be enhanced by ~240 times through a hierarchical active core/active shell/inert shell (NaYF₄:Yb3+30%/Tm3+0.5%)/NaYbF₄/NaYF₄...
متن کاملMulticolor hybrid upconversion nanoparticles and their improved performance as luminescence temperature sensors due to energy transfer.
By combining upconversion nanoparticles (UCNPs) with rhodamine 6G (R6G) dye molecules, multicolor emission based on energy transfer is achieved. The complexes can be dissolved in epoxy resin, and self-assembled hemispherical microstructures are fabricated through a hydrophobic effect. A luminescence temperature sensor takes advantage of the high temperature sensitivity of the complexes due to e...
متن کاملUpconversion Luminescence Sensitized pH-Nanoprobes.
Photon upconversion materials, featuring excellent photophysical properties, are promising for bio-medical research due to their low autofluorescence, non-cytotoxicity, low photobleaching and high photostability. Upconversion based pH-nanoprobes are attracting considerable interest due to their superiority over pH-sensitive molecular indicators and metal nanoparticles. Herein, we review the adv...
متن کاملCritical Shell Thickness of Core/shell Upconversion Luminescence Nanoplatforms for FRET Applications
The influence of the structure of upconversion nanoparticles on their fluorescence resonant energy transfer applications has been studied using core/shell upconversion NaYF4:Yb,Er@NaYF4 nanoparticles and rose bengal photosensitizer. From studies of the photophysics of and singlet oxygen generation by the conjugates of upconversion nanoparticles with photosensitizers we have determined what the ...
