800 nm near-infrared light-excitable intense green-emitting Li(Gd,Y)F4:Yb,Er-based core/shell/shell upconversion nanophosphors for efficient liver cancer cell imaging

In this study, novel 800 nm-excitable and highly intense green-emitting non-NaY(Gd)F4-based core/shell/shell (CSS) upconversion nanophosphors (UCNPs) are reported. Scheelite-structured Li(Gd,Y)F4:Yb,Er core UCNPs are synthesized, followed by the formation of a Nd3+-doped active shell and inert shell...
