1. High Accuracy Relative Luminescence Quantum Yield Measurements of Upconverting Nanoparticles
University essay from Lunds universitet/Fysiska institutionen; Lunds universitet/AtomfysikAbstract : 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

2. Development of an Upconverting Nanoparticles Quantum Yield Measurement System
University essay from Lunds universitet/Atomfysik; Lunds universitet/Fysiska institutionenAbstract : Fluorescence imaging is a growing biomedical technique; it can be used to localize the luminescent biomarkers inside the tissue. Lanthanide-doped upconverting nanoparticles (UCNPs) are promising luminescent probes for multiple applications in biophotonics. They allow acquiring autofluorescence-free recordings with high spatial resolution. READ MORE

3. Nd-doped Upconverting Nanoparticles for Deep Tissue Imaging
University essay from Lunds universitet/Fysiska institutionen; Lunds universitet/AtomfysikAbstract : During the last decade, upconverting nanoparticles (UCNPs) doped with rare-earth (RE) ions have been extensively studied in the field of biophotonics. Due to their unique properties of anti- Stokes shifted luminescence and with excitation and emission wavelengths optimal for biomedical imaging, they have become an interesting class of fluorescent contrast agents.
