Development of visible-to-ultraviolet upconversion phosphors for light-activated antimicrobial surfaces
A new form of antimicrobial surface was developed, which relies on an optical mechanism rather than chemical inactivation of microorganisms. Through the photoluminescence process of upconversion, low energy photons can be amplified into higher energy photons, and in this case, phosphors capable of...
