Directional Light Emission in a Single NaYF4 Microcrystal via Photon Upconversion

Research output: Journal Publications and ReviewsRGC 21 - Publication in refereed journalpeer-review

Abstract

Crystalline NaYF4 microstructures are harnessed to realize directional emissions by near infrared excitations through photon upconversion. By incorporating lanthanide ions of varying composition and concentration into the microcrystals, guided emissions of tunable colors (blue, green, and red) are achieved by near infrared excitations at diverse wavelengths (808−1532 nm).
