Conspectus Lanthanide-doped upconversion nanoparticles (UCNPs) are a special class of luminescent nanomaterials that convert multiwavelength near-infrared (NIR) excitation into tunable emissions spanning the deep ultraviolet (UV) to NIR regions. In addition to large anti-Stokes shift, UCNPs also fea...
