    Abstract : The name Upconverting nanoparticles refers to a novel category of luminescence emitters that are capable of generating visible luminescence upon excitation with noncoherent and longer wavelength monochromatic near-infrared light, at excitation fluence rates as low as 1-103 W/cm2. This unique optical behaviour is of great interest to researchers as it could potentially allow for virtually autofluorescence free luminescence imaging of living tissue. READ MORE
