In this work, we developed a simple and selective luminescence sensing system for detecting ascorbic acid (AA) based on NaGdF4:Yb,Er@NaYF4 upconversion nanoparticles (UCNPs) and oxidase-like CoOOH nanoflakes. When p-phenylenediamine (PPD) and oxidase-like CoOOH nanoflakes were added to the UCNPs solutions
Lanthanide-based upconversion nanoparticles can convert low-energy excitation to high-energy emission. The self-assembled upconversion nanoparticles with unique structures have considerable promise in sensors and optical devices due to intriguing properties. However, the assembly of isotropic nanocrystals into anisotropic structures is a
Lanthanide-doped upconversion nanoparticles with a suitable surface coating are appealing for biomedical applications. Because high-quality upconversion nanoparticles are typically prepared in an organic solvent and passivated by hydrophobic oleate ligands, a convenient and reliable method for the surface modification of
Spider silk is a natural material possessing unique properties such as biocompatibility, regenerative and antimicrobial activity, and biodegradability. It is broadly considered an attractive matrix for tissue regeneration applications. Optical monitoring and potential control over tissue regrowth are attractive tools
This paper presents the use of soft template method to synthesize core and core-shell up-converting nanoparticles usefull for temperature sensing applications. Based on the stock solutions of core β-NaYF4:Er3+,Yb3+ nanoparticles and involving soft template method without any additional process of
