Upconversion Nanophosphors

Upconversion phosphor materials have attracted the interest of researchers due to their multipurpose applications. Lanthanide-doped upconversion nanoparticles are the most common and have been recently developed as a new generation of luminescent probes, possessing considerable merits which organic dyes and quantum dots don’t have. Upconversion Nanophosphors provides detail information about the different lanthanide-based upconversion nanoparticles and their application in different fields. The book focuses on the different kind of upconversion phosphors materials with different synthesis methods, characterization tools and specific applications in various fields. This book will help solve fundamental and applied problems of inorganic phosphor materials showing upconversion behavior as well as generate new innovative ideas in the field of application of inorganic phosphor materials. This book is for scientists, engineers, industrial experts, Ph.D. students and master students working in the field of upconversion and materials science. Covers synthesis characterization of upconversion nanophosphors and their applicationsHelps solve fundamental and applied problems in the field of inorganic phosphor materials showing upconversion behaviorHighlights which classes of upconversion materials are suitable for a specific application
