Effects of inert shell on the upconversion intensity and color of Na(Er/Yb)F4 nanocrystals
Inert passivation can significantly enhance the upconversion intensity of lanthanide ion doped nanocrystals, especially in the heavily doped cases. In this paper, we revealed that, besides the well-known enhancement of intensity, the inert shell can also

Real-Time Monitoring of Excited-State Ring-Puckering Process in BODIPY Molecule Using Ultrafast Spectroscopy. [PDF]
Pyrromethene 597 (PM597), a commercial laser dye, shows a lower fluorescence yield than its analogues. Ultrafast dynamics studies using femtosecond fluorescence upconversion and transient absorption revealed that a non‐radiative ring‐puckering process in the excited state of PM597, occurring with a time constant of 1.3 ps, is primarily responsible for ...
