Photostable and Small YVO<sub>4</sub>:Yb,Er Upconversion Nanoparticles in Water
In this work, we report a simple method of silica coating of upconversion nanoparticles (UCNPs) to obtain well-crystalline particles that remain small and not agglomerated after high-temperature post-annealing, and produce bright visible emission when pumped with near-infrared light. This enables ma...
