The rapid development of nanotechnology has placed higher demand on the synthesis of nanomaterials. Benefiting from its capability to keep nanoparticles away from aggregation, oleic acid (OA) has been routinely...
The applications of upconversion nanoparticles in biodetection, bioimaging, and lighting have greatly fuelled a growing demand for enhancing their brightness. The brightness of upconversion nanoparticles is fundamentally limited by the...
Monodispersed GdF3:Er3+,Yb3+ hollow submicrometer spheres were successfully synthesized by self-assembly of ∼16 nm nanocrystals, and exhibit unique strong emissions spanning from UV to NIR under excitation at 980 nm.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
