Ho 3+ /Yb 3+ co-doped tellurite glasses were synthesized through the use of the conventional melt-quenching method in this paper. Under the excitation of 980 nm LD , an intense and broad 4.1 μm mid-infrared fluorescence of the wavelength range from 3600 to 4400 nm with the full width at half maxima (FWHM) of the fabricated glasses about 343 nm were obtained, which have potential applications in the field of wide band mid-infrared lasers. Meanwhile, strong 2.9 μm mid-infrared emission (2730–3030 nm) was observed with the FWHM of 109 nm and the calculated maximum gain coefficient reach to 2.16 cm −1 around 2843 nm. The intense visible up-conversion emission bands center at 551, 662 and 753 nm, near-infrared fluorescence emissions around 1.2 and 2.0 μm were observed in the synthetic tellurite glasses. Under the different concentration of Yb 2 O 3 , a series of luminescence properties were detailed researched. In addition, the energy transfer mechanism was discussed according to the emission spectra and the fluorescence lifetime value of the change trend. These findings demonstrate that the synthesized Ho 3+ /Yb 3+ co-doped tellurite glasses exhibit excellent fluorescence properties for mid-infrared laser materials.

Novel PEI-modified NaBiF 4 :Yb 3+ /Er 3+ upconversion nanoparticles (UCNPs) with hollow structure were prepared by a surface modification free one-step solvothermal method and applied as a luminescent probe to determinate water content in organic solvents . XRD , SEM and HRTEM results demonstrate that the obtained PEI-NaBiF 4 :Yb 3+ /Er 3+ UCNPs are pure hexagonal phase with uniform size. The successful modification of PEI on the UCNPs surface was evidenced by ζ-potential test, XPS and TG analysis . These synthesized UCNPs are disintegrated into smaller nanoparticles in the presence of water and thus result in a surface quenching effect, which show the features of 0–100% wide range water response in various organic solvents. The sensing performance towards real samples was validated by the water content determination in beer, rum and white spirit. Furthermore, the luminescence intensity variation of the PEI-modified NaBiF 4 :Yb 3+ /Er 3+ enable the test visualization and ease of portability.

In this work, the upconversion luminescence (UCL) and temperature-sensing properties of SrGd 2 O 4 phosphors doped with Er 3+ , Yb 3+ were investigated. The UCL performance was studied by adjusting the doping concentrations of Er 3+ , Yb 3+ . It can be found that the intensity of red UCL is effectively improved by doping Yb 3+ ions. The band structures of SrGd 2 O 4 , SrGd 2 O 4 :5 mol%Er 3+ , and SrGd 2 O 4 :5 mol%Er 3+ ,15 mol%Yb 3+ were calculated using the density functional theory (DFT) to verify the experimental results. The thermal sensitivity of SrGd 2 O 4 :5 mol%Er 3+ ,15 mol%Yb 3+ phosphors was studied using the novel fluorescence intensity ratio of non-thermally coupled energy levels (NTCL-FIR) technique based on the 2 H 11/2 and 4 F 9/2 energy levels. The analytical results reveal that the maximum values of S r are 1.69%/K (300 K), 1.18%/K (300 K) and 1.47%/K (300 K) respectively under 915, 980 and 1550 nm excitations. The S r values of novel NTCL-FIR are compared with that of thermal coupling of energy level (TCL) and other studies in the same field. The results show that the thermometry sensitivity of red-emitting UCL materials can be enhanced by using the novel NTCL-FIR technique. In addition, the intense red UCL of SrGd 2 O 4 :Er 3+ ,Yb 3+ phosphors have the advantage of deeply penetrating biological tissues. Therefore, the combination of novel NTCL-FIR and red-emitting SrGd 2 O 4 :Er 3+ ,Yb 3+ phosphors could be conducive to temperature monitoring in vivo .

In this work, an anticancer drug delivery system based on curcumin-conjugated NaYF4:Yb3+, Er3+ nanoparticles was developed. The as-prepared nanoconstruct consisting of uniform hexagonal nanoparticles with an average diameter of about 200 nm was synthesized.
A natural photosensitizer curcumin was loaded onto the nanoparticles through covalent interaction and physical adsorption. Drug loading efficiency was calculated and it turns out a high loading capacity of the as-prepared nanoparticles. Cytotoxity experiments of carboxylic acid-functionalized
UCNPs and curcumin-UCNPs were performed via MTT assay. The drug delivery system demonstrates the ability to be uptaken by three different kinds of cell lines (Human hepatocellular carcinoma Bel-7402 cells, Human SKOV-3 ovarian cancer cells and Human breast adenocarcinoma MCF-7 cells) and to
generate reactive oxygen species upon the excitation of near-infrared light, so as to kill tumor cells. To sum up, such a drug delivery system exhibits good potential in cancer therapy.

In this work, the monodisperse spherical pure β-NaYF 4 :Yb 3+ ,Er 3+ core NCs with average size of 7.2 nm were synthesized by using NaOA as sodium source instead of the conventional NaOH, based on which the sub-20 nm β-NaYF 4 :Yb 3+ ,Er 3+ @NaGdF 4 core-shell NCs with magnetic-optical bifunctional properties were successfully obtained with seed-mediated growth method. The magnetization of the core-shell NCs enhanced proportionally with increased shell thickness, and the maximum upconversion intensity was three orders of magnitude increased in the 18.3 nm NaYF 4 : Yb 3+ ,Er 3+ @NaGdF 4 core-shell NCs compare with the corresponding core NCs. Besides, the upconversion mechanism for the core and core-shell NCs were discussed. This work may lead to an ideal platform for the preparation of sub-20 nm spherical NCs with magnetic and optical properties for application in biomedical imaging and drug delivery.

Yb3+/Er3+-doped Bi2(MoO4)3−z(WO4)z phosphors were synthesized via a hydrothermal method combined with subsequent calcination. Under the excitation of a light source of 980 nm, Bi2(MoO4)3:Yb3+/Er3+ phosphors exhibited strong upconversion green light and weak red light emissions. By doping WO42− in Bi2(MoO4)3:Yb3+/Er3+ phosphors, the upconversion luminescence intensity of the phosphors significantly enhanced, which is 42 times higher than that of the undoped WO42− phosphor. With an increase in WO42− doping content, the final color coordinates of Bi2(MoO4)3−z(WO4)z:Yb3+/Er3+ phosphors were (0.2352, 0.7274), which is closer to the standard green CIE coordinates. The maximum CP of WO42−-doped phosphors is as high as 116.68%, which is 74.44% higher than that of the undoped WO42− phosphor. Based on the thermally coupled energy levels (TCLs) of Er3+ (2H11/2/4S3/2 → 4I15/2) in Bi2(MoO4)2.7(WO4)0.3:14%Yb3+,3%Er3+ phosphor, the SR value reached a maximum of 0.0081 K−1 at 323 K and the SA value reached a maximum of 0.0099 K−1 at 398 K. The obtained Bi2(MoO4)3−z(WO4)z:Yb3+/Er3+ phosphors are suitable for upconversion luminescent materials for green displays and have potential advantages in optical temperature measurement.

A new up-conversion nanomaterial of Ho 3+ -Yb 3+ -Mg 2+ tri-doped TiO 2 (UC-Mg-TiO 2 ) was designed and synthesized with a sol-gel method. The UC-Mg-TiO 2 presented enhanced up-conversion fluorescence by an addition of Mg 2+ . The UC-Mg-TiO 2 was utilized to fabricate perovskite solar cells by forming a thin layer on the electron transfer layer. The results display that the power conversion efficiency of the solar cells based on the electron transfer layer with UC-Mg-TiO 2 is improved to 16.3 from 15.2% for those without UC-Mg-TiO 2 . It is demonstrated that the synthesized UC-Mg-TiO 2 can convert the near-infrared light to visible light that perovskite film can absorb to improve the power conversion efficiency of the devices.

Rear earth(RE)-doped halide perovskite has generated as an amazing optical material for multicolor luminescence. Free-lead halide double perovskites have attracted interesting because of their non-toxicity and higher instability. Here, RE 3+ doped chloride-based double perovskite phosphors are reported. A series of heavy concentration Ho 3+ /Yb 3+ doped Cs 2 NaBiCl 6 (CNBC) phosphors are prepared with a solvothermal route. The band structure of CNBC is calculated through density functional theory (DFT). The luminescence properties of CNBC:Ho 3+ and CNBC:Ho 3+ /Yb 3+ are investigated through upconversion(UC) and downshifting(DS) processes. From CNBC:Ho 3+ , the brightness orange, deep red and pale green lights are achieved under excitation at 365, 452 and 980 nm. The multicolor emissions of CNBC:Ho 3+ are used to multimode fluorescent anti-counterfeiting. Comparing with CNBC:Ho 3+ samples, the UC emission intensity of CNBC:Ho 3+ /Yb 3+ are dramatically enhanced. The brightness green light can be seen by naked eyes under super lower power pumping(∼10 mW). The temperature sensing properties of CNBC:Ho 3+ /Yb 3+ phosphor are investigated systematically based on the luminescence intensity ratio(LIR) of thermally coupled levels(TCLs)( 5 F 1 / 5 G 6 , 5 F 2,3 / 3 K 8 ) and non-TCLs( 5 F 4 / 5 S 2 , 5 F 5 ). The maximum relative sensitivity(S R ) reaches 5.089% K −1 at 293 K according to the LIR of non-TCLs. The work will broaden the application field of RE 3+ -doped free-lead perovskite such as anti-counterfeiting and thermometry.

This work begins with a study of the synthesis of multi-color luminescence phosphors, which is followed by a discussion of the temperature sensitivity of AgBi(MoO4)2:Yb3+/Er3+. Uniform and approximately spherical particles of AgBi(MoO4)2-based phosphors were prepared by a simple one-step hydrothermal method without adding any surfactant. We obtained a series of rich green, yellow, blue, and white luminescence phosphors by doping Ln3+ (Ln3+ = Yb3+, Er3+, Ho3+, Tm3+) into the AgBi(MoO4)2 matrix, and an analysis of various correlative factors was made, especially for the amounts of doping ions. Furthermore, the investigation of the temperature sensitivity of AgBi(MoO4)2:Yb3+/Er3+ revealed that the fluorescence intensity becomes lower with increasing temperature from 323 to 573 K. The fluorescence intensity ratio (FIR) of the two thermal coupling energy levels (2H11/2, 4S3/2) of Er3+ was calculated, and the absolute sensitivity of the obtained phosphor reached a maximum value of 1.32% K−1 at 463 K, as obtained by fitting the FIR as a function of temperature, which is a relatively high level compared with other related materials. This material is expected to be used as a highly sensitive FIR thermometer.

Recently, the multifunctional nanomaterials with multimodal imaging and high-performance therapy effect are extremely important. In this work, a novel nanostructure with Ag nanospheres (NSs) encapsulated Polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP) film which decorated by Ba 2 GdF 7 :Yb 3+ , Ho 3+ nanoparticles is synthesized by a simple method. The novel nanostructure endows the NCs remarkable originality and excellent multifunctional performance. The morphology, structure, optical properties, biocompatibility, cytotoxicity, superparamagnetic properties and photothermal therapeutic efficiency of the Ag@PVP-Ba 2 GdF 7 :Yb 3+ , Ho 3+ nanocomposites (NCs) are investigated. The results show that Ag@PVP-Ba 2 GdF 7 :Yb 3+ , Ho 3+ NCs possess good upconversion luminescence (UCL) performance and X-ray computed tomography (CT) imaging ability. Furthermore, in MTT cytotoxicity measurement, the NCs exhibit low cytotoxicity and excellent biocompatibility. Moreover, the PVP film coating of the NCs can largely promote the stability. In addition, outstanding photothermal conversion ability and stability are also obtained upon NIR laser irradiation. Utilizing the prominent photothermal effect, PTT in vitro shows efficient photothermal killing effect on tumor cells. Therefore, Ag@PVP-Ba 2 GdF 7 :Yb 3+ , Ho 3+ NCs from multifaceted research provides a break to multifunctional nanomaterials for multimodal imaging detection and high-performance tumor photothermal therapy.

Inorganic upconversion materials show significant importance in both basic research and applied area, and searching for suitable host material and understanding of fundamental photophysical process are particularly worth studying in upconversion application. Herein, a heavily Yb 3+ -substituted langbeinite-type Rb 2 Ti 0.80 Yb 1.20 (PO 4 ) 3 (RTYP) millimeter-sized single crystal, which has been successfully grown by high temperature solution method, exhibits efficient dual-color upconversion photoluminescence under 980 nm excitation. The lifetimes of two-photon blue emission and one-photon red emission are 4.1 μs and 17.1 μs, respectively. X-ray structural analyses reveal that the dual-color emissions are ascribed to disordered Yb 3+ -Ti 4+ pairs and crystal defect, and the higher intensity of red emission is attributed to Yb 3+ -defect energy transfer activated by Ti 4+ . Notably, the blue emission originates from cooperative luminescence of Yb 3+ dimer, and the red emission originates dominantly from the cooperative sensitization of the intrinsic defect caused by excited Yb 3+ dimer. Moreover, RTYP with disordered structure shows high thermal stability up to 1,150 °C. This work not only demonstrates the promising potential of langbeinite-type materials in multicolor upconversion application, but also sheds light on the photophysical process associated with disordered crystal structure.

In this work, a comparative study of the upconversion (UC) luminescence properties of ${{\rm Er}^{3 +}} {-} {{\rm Yb}^{3 +}}$-co-doped ${{\rm AWO}_4}$ (${\rm A} = {\rm Ba}$, Sr, and Ca) scheelite phosphors and ${{\rm Er}^{3 +}} {-} {{\rm Yb}^{3 +}} $-co-doped ${{\rm MgWO}_4}$ wolframite phosphors is reported. Under 980 nm excitation, all the samples emit green and red emissions. The ${{\rm Er}^{3 +}} {-} {{\rm Yb}^{3 +}}$-doped ${{\rm MgWO}_4}$ phosphor has a higher UC emission intensity. Furthermore, the optical temperature sensing properties in ${{\rm Er}^{3 +}} {-} {{\rm Yb}^{3 +}}$-co-doped ${{\rm AWO}_4}$ (${\rm A} = {\rm Ba}$, Sr, Ca, and Mg) phosphor samples are investigated. The relative sensitivity (${{\rm S}_r}$) based on thermally coupled levels (TCLs) increases gradually with an increase in matrix phonon energy. The absolute sensitivity (${{\rm S}_a}$) values of the samples are accurately predicted by the chemical bonding parameter (${{\rm f}_c}$). The results of the correlation between the UC luminescence properties and the microscopic crystal structure, and the relationship of the temperature sensitivity and the host parameters, provide us with a guiding insight for the selection of a host material with ideal temperature measurement capability.
