Enhanced Single‐Particle Upconversion Imaging via Energy Migration Boosting

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A core‐shell‐shell Yb3⁺/Er3⁺ UCNP architecture is engineered to balance energy migration and back energy transfer, yielding more than a tenfold enhancement in single‐particle brightness. Leveraging these optimized probes, it achieves long‐term, high‐resolution single‐particle tracking in live neurons, uncovering coordinated transport mechanisms of ...
