Lanthanide-doped upconversion nanocrystals (UCN) converting low energy photons to high energy photons have emerged as an efficient and versatile bioimaging and therapeutic tool. However, the upconversion efficiency of the UCNs is low, which limits their applications. Plasmonic modulation makes it po...
