- Abstract
This article represents the first foray into investigating the consequences of various material combinations on the short-wave infrared (SWIR, 1000-2000 nm) performance of Tm-based core-shell nanocrystals (NCs) above 1600 nm. In total, six different material combinations involving two different types of SWIR-emitting core NCs (α-NaTmF
4 and LiTmF4 ) combined with three different protecting shell materials (α-NaYF4 , CaF2 , and LiYF4 ) have been synthesized. All corresponding homo- and heterostructured NCs have been meticulously characterized by powder X-ray diffraction and electron microscopy techniques. The latter revealed that out of the six investigated combinations, only one led to the formation of a true core-shell structure with well-segregated core and shell domains. The direct correlation between the downshifting performance and the spatial localization of Tm3+ ions within the final homo- and heterostructured NCs is established. Interestingly, to achieve the best SWIR performance, the formation of an abrupt interface is not a prerequisite, while the existence of a pure (even thin) protective shell is vital. Remarkably, although all homo- and heterostructured NCs have been synthesized under the exact same experimental conditions, Tm3+ SWIR emission is either fully quenched or highly efficient depending on the type of material combination. The most efficient combination (LiTmF4 /LiYF4 ) achieved a high photoluminescence quantum yield of 39% for SWIR emission above 1600 nm (excitation power density in the range 0.5-3 W/cm2 ) despite significant intermixing. From now on, highly efficient SWIR-emitting probes with an emission above 1600 nm are within reach to unlock the full potential of in vivo SWIR imaging.- Published

- Abstract
Transparent roofs and walls offer a compelling solution for harnessing natural light. However, traditional glass roofs and walls face challenges such as glare, privacy concerns, and overheating issues. In this study, we present a polymer-based micro-photonic multi-functional metamaterial. The metamaterial diffuses 73% of incident sunlight, creating a more comfortable and private indoor environment. The visible spectral transmittance of the metamaterial (95%) surpasses that of traditional glass (91%). Furthermore, the metamaterial is estimated to enhance photosynthesis efficiency by ~9% compared to glass roofs. With a high emissivity (~0.98) close to that of a mid-infrared black body, the metamaterial is estimated to have a cooling capacity of ~97 W/m
2 at ambient temperature. The metamaterial was about 6 °C cooler than the ambient temperature in humid Karlsruhe. The metamaterial exhibits superhydrophobic performance with a contact angle of 152°, significantly higher than that of glass (26°), thus potentially having excellent self-cleaning properties., (© 2024.

- Abstract
More complete recycling of plastic waste is possible only if new technologies that go beyond state-of-the-art near-infrared (NIR) sorting are developed. For example, tracer-based sorting is a new technology that explores the upconversion or down-shift luminescence of special tracers based on inorganic materials codoped with lanthanide ions. Specifically, down-shift tracers emit in the shortwave infrared (SWIR) spectral range and can be detected using a SWIR camera preinstalled in a state-of-the-art sorting machine for NIR sorting. In this study, we synthesized a very efficient SWIR tracer by codoping Li
3 Ba2 Gd3 (MoO4 )8 with Yb3+ and Er3+ , where Yb3+ is a synthesizer ion (excited near 976 nm) and Er3+ emits near 1550 nm. Fine-tuning of the doping concentration resulted in a tracer (Li3 Ba2 Gd(3- x-y ) (MoO4 )8 : x Yb3+ , yEr3+ , where x = 0.2 and y = 0.4) with a high photoluminescence quantum yield for 1550 nm emission of 70% (using 976 nm excitation). This tracer was used to mark plastic objects. When the object was illuminated by a halogen lamp and a 976 nm laser, the three parts could be easily distinguished based on reflectance and luminescence spectra in the SWIR range: a plastic bottle made of polyethylene terephthalate, a bottle cap made of high-density polyethylene, and a label made of the tracer Li3 Ba2 Gd3 (MoO4 )8 :Yb3+ , Er3+ . Importantly, the use of the tracer in sorting may require only the installation of a 976 nm laser in a state-of-the-art NIR sorting system.- Published

- Abstract
Short-wave infrared (SWIR) fluorescence could become the new gold standard in optical imaging for biomedical applications due to important advantages such as lack of autofluorescence, weak photon absorption by blood and tissues, and reduced photon scattering coefficient. Therefore, contrary to the visible and NIR regions, tissues become translucent in the SWIR region. Nevertheless, the lack of bright and biocompatible probes is a key challenge that must be overcome to unlock the full potential of SWIR fluorescence. Although rare-earth-based core-shell nanocrystals appeared as promising SWIR probes, they suffer from limited photoluminescence quantum yield (PLQY). The lack of control over the atomic scale organization of such complex materials is one of the main barriers limiting their optical performance. Here, the growth of either homogeneous (α-NaYF
4 ) or heterogeneous (CaF2 ) shell domains on optically-active α-NaYF4 :Yb:Er (with and without Ce3+ co-doping) core nanocrystals is reported. The atomic scale organization can be controlled by preventing cation intermixing only in heterogeneous core-shell nanocrystals with a dramatic impact on the PLQY. The latter reached 50% at 60 mW/cm2 ; one of the highest reported PLQY values for sub-15 nm nanocrystals. The most efficient nanocrystals were utilized for in vivo imaging above 1450 nm., (© 2023.

- Abstract
The search for new materials capable of efficient upconversion continues to attract attention. In this work, a comprehensive study of the upconversion luminescence in PbF
2 :Er3+ ,Yb3+ crystals with different concentrations of Yb3+ ions in the range of 2 to 7.5 mol% (Er3+ concentration was fixed at 2 mol%) was carried out. The highest value of upconversion quantum yield ( ϕUC ) 5.9% (at 350 W cm-2 ) was found in the PbF2 crystal doped with 2 mol% Er3+ and 3 mol% Yb3+ . Since it is not always easy to directly measure ϕUC and estimate the related key figure of merit parameter, saturated photoluminescence quantum yield ( ϕUCsat ), a method to reliably predict ϕUCsat can be useful. Judd-Ofelt theory provides a convenient way to determine the radiative lifetimes of the excited states of rare-earth ions based on absorption measurements. When the luminescence decay times after direct excitation of a level are also measured, ϕUCsat for that level can be calculated. This approach is tested on a series of PbF2 :Er3+ ,Yb3+ crystals. Good agreement between the estimates obtained as above and the directly experimentally measured ϕUCsat values is demonstrated. In addition, three methods of Judd-Ofelt calculations on powder samples were tested and the results were compared with Judd-Ofelt calculations on single crystals, which served as the source of the powder samples. Taken together, the results presented in our work for PbF2 :Er3+ ,Yb3+ crystals contribute to a better understanding of the UC phenomena and provide a reference data set for the use of UC materials in practical applications.- Published

7. Limitation of room temperature phosphorescence efficiency in metal organic frameworks due to triplet-triplet annihilation.

- Abstract
The effect of triplet-triplet annihilation (TTA) on the room-temperature phosphorescence (RTP) in metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) is studied in benchmark RTP MOFs based on Zn metal centers and isophthalic or terephthalic acid linkers (ZnIPA and ZnTPA). The ratio of RTP to singlet fluorescence is observed to decrease with increasing excitation power density. Explicitly, in ZnIPA the ratio of the RTP to fluorescence is 0.58 at 1.04 mW cm
-2 , but only 0.42 at (the still modest) 52.6 mW cm-2 . The decrease in ratio is due to the reduction of RTP efficiency at higher excitation due to TTA. The density of triplet states increases at higher excitation power densities, allowing triplets to diffuse far enough during their long lifetime to meet another triplet and annihilate. On the other hand, the shorter-lived singlet species can never meet an annihilate. Therefore, the singlet fluorescence scales linearly with excitation power density whereas the RTP scales sub-linearly. Equivalently, the efficiency of fluorescence is unaffected by excitation power density but the efficiency of RTP is significantly reduced at higher excitation power density due to TTA. Interestingly, in time-resolved measurements, the fraction of fast decay increases but the lifetime of long tail of the RTP remains unaffected by excitation power density. This may be due to the confinement of triplets to individual grains, leading decay to be faster until there is only one triplet per grain left. Subsequently, the remaining "lone triplets" decay with the unchanging rate expressed by the long tail. These results increase the understanding of RTP in MOFs by explicitly showing the importance of TTA in determining the (excitation power density dependent) efficiency of RTP. Also, for applications in optical sensing, these results suggest that a method based on long tail lifetime of the RTP is preferable to a ratiometric approach as the former will not be affected by variation in excitation power density whereas the latter will be., Competing Interests: The authors declare that the research was conducted in the absence of any commercial or financial relationships that could be construed as a potential conflict of interest.

- Abstract
Triplet-triplet annihilation upconversion (TTA-UC) is an important type of optical process with applications in biophotonics, solar energy harvesting and photochemistry. In most of the TTA-UC systems, the formation of triplet excited states takes place via spin-orbital interactions promoted by heavy atoms. Given the crucial role of heavy atoms (especially noble metals, such as Pd and Pt) in promoting intersystem crossing (ISC) and, therefore, in production of UC luminescence, the feasibility of using more readily available and inexpensive sensitizers without heavy atoms remains a challenge. Here, we investigated sensitization of TTA-UC using BODIPY-pyrene heavy-atom-free donor-acceptor dyads with different numbers of alkyl groups in the BODIPY scaffold. The molecules with four and six alkyl groups are unable to sensitize TTA-UC in the investigated solvents (tetrahydrofuran (THF) and dichloromethane (DCM)) due to negligible ISC. In contrast, the dyad with two methyl groups in the BODIPY scaffold and the dyad with unsubstituted BODIPY demonstrate efficient intersystem crossing (ISC) of 49-58%, resulting in TTA-UC with quantum yields of 4.7% and 6.9%, respectively. The analysis of the elementary steps of the TTA-UC process indicates that heavy-atom-free donor-acceptor dyads are less effective than their noble metal counterparts, but may equal them in the future if the right combination of solvent, donor-acceptor sensitizer structure, and new luminescent molecules as TTA-UC emitters can be found.

- Abstract
Lanthanide-based upconversion (UC) allows harvesting sub-bandgap near-infrared photons in photovoltaics. In this work, we investigate UC in perovskite solar cells by implementing UC single crystal BaF
2 :Yb3+ , Er3+ at the rear of the solar cell. Upon illumination with high-intensity sub-bandgap photons at 980 nm, the BaF2 :Yb3+ , Er3+ crystal emits upconverted photons in the spectral range between 520 and 700 nm. When tested under terrestrial sunlight representing one sun above the perovskite's bandgap and sub-bandgap illumination at 980 nm, upconverted photons contribute a 0.38 mA/cm2 enhancement in the short-circuit current density at lower intensity. The current enhancement scales non-linearly with the incident intensity of sub-bandgap illumination, and at higher intensity, 2.09 mA/cm2 enhancement in current was observed. Hence, our study shows that using a fluoride single crystal like BaF2 :Yb3+ , Er3+ for UC is a suitable method to extend the response of perovskite solar cells to near-infrared illumination at 980 nm with a subsequent enhancement in current for very high incident intensity.- Published

- Abstract
Advances in controlling energy migration pathways in core-shell lanthanide (Ln)-based hetero-nanocrystals (HNCs) have relied heavily on assumptions about how optically active centers are distributed within individual HNCs. In this article, it is demonstrated that different types of interface patterns can be formed depending on shell growth conditions. Such interface patterns are not only identified but also characterized with spatial resolution ranging from the nanometer- to the atomic-scale. In the most favorable cases, atomic-scale resolved maps of individual particles are obtained. It is also demonstrated that, for the same type of core-shell architecture, the interface pattern can be engineered with thicknesses of just 1 nm up to several tens of nanometers. Total alloying between the core and shell domains is also possible when using ultra-small particles as seeds. Finally, with different types of interface patterns (same architecture and chemical composition of the core and shell domains) it is possible to modify the output color (yellow, red, and green-yellow) or change (improvement or degradation) the absolute upconversion quantum yield. The results presented in this article introduce an important paradigm shift and pave the way toward the emergence of a new generation of core-shell Ln-based HNCs with better control over their atomic-scale organization., (© 2021 The Authors.

- Abstract
Opportunities for enhancing solar energy harvesting using photon upconversion are reviewed. The increasing prominence of bifacial solar cells is an enabling factor for the implementation of upconversion, however, when the realistic constraints of current best-performing silicon devices are considered, many challenges remain before silicon photovoltaics operating under nonconcentrated sunlight can be enhanced via lanthanide-based upconversion. A photophysical model reveals that >1-2 orders of magnitude increase in the intermediate state lifetime, energy transfer rate, or generation rate would be needed before such solar upconversion could start to become efficient. Methods to increase the generation rate such as the use of cosensitizers to expand the absorption range and the use of plasmonics or photonic structures are reviewed. The opportunities and challenges for these approaches (or combinations thereof) to achieve efficient solar upconversion are discussed. The opportunity for enhancing the performance of technologies such as luminescent solar concentrators by combining upconversion together with micro-optics is also reviewed. Triplet-triplet annihilation-based upconversion is progressing steadily toward being relevant to lower-bandgap solar cells. Looking toward photocatalysis, photophysical modeling indicates that current blue-to-ultraviolet lanthanide upconversion systems are very inefficient. However, hope remains in this direction for organic upconversion enhancing the performance of visible-light-active photocatalysts.

- Abstract
The efficiency of photon upconversion via triplet-triplet annihilation is characterized by an upconversion quantum yield (Φ
UC ); however, uncertainties remain for its determination. Here, we present a new approach for the relative measurement of ΦUC for green-to-blue upconversion using BODIPY-pyrene donor-acceptor dyad (BD1) as a heavy-atom-free triplet sensitizer. This new approach exploits broad fluorescence from a charge-transfer (CT) state of BD1, which possesses (i) a significant Stokes shift of 181 nm in dichloromethane and (ii) a comparably high CT-fluorescence quantum yield (Φref = 7.0 ± 0.2%), which is independent from oxygen presence and emitter (perylene) concentration while also exhibiting a linear intensity dependence. On the basis of this, we developed an upconversion reference using the BD1 sensitizer mixed with perylene (1 × 10-5 M/1 × 10-4 M) in dichloromethane. With this reference system, we investigated the performance of three BODIPY donor-acceptor dyads in the upconversion process and achieved one of the highest ΦUC of 6.9 ± 0.2% observed for heavy-atom-free sensitizers to date.- Published

- Abstract
Silicon nanocrystals (SiNCs) are regarded as a green and environmentally friendly material when compared with other semiconductor nanocrystals. Ultra-small SiNCs (with the size 4.6-5.2 nm) demonstrate strong UV absorption and photoluminescence in the near infrared (NIR) range with the high photoluminescence quantum yield (PLQY) up to 60%. In contrast to nanoporous silicon, ultra-small SiNCs do not possess an intrinsic ability to generate singlet oxygen (
1 O2 ). However, we demonstrate that SiNC-dye conjugates synthesized via microwave assistant hydrosilylation reaction produce1 O2 with moderate quantum yield (ΦΔ ) up to 27% in cyclohexane. These interesting results were obtained via measurements of singlet oxygen phosphorescence at 1,270 nm. SiNCs play an important role in the production of singlet oxygen as SiNCs harvest UV and blue radiation and transfer absorbed energy to a triplet state of the attached dyes. It increases the population of the triplet states and leads to the enhancement of the singlet oxygen generation. Simultaneously, the SiNC-dye conjugates demonstrate NIR luminescence with the PLQY up to 22%. Thus, the luminescence behavior and photosensitizing properties of the SiNC-dye conjugates can attract interest as a new multifunctional platform in the field of bio-applications., (Copyright © 2020 Beri, Jakoby, Busko, Richards and Turshatov.)- Published

- Abstract
The upconversion of near-infrared (NIR) to visible (vis) photons is of interest for display technologies and energy conversion. Although triplet-triplet annihilation (TTA) offers a mechanism for upconversion that works efficiently at low incident irradiance flux densities, current strategies for NIR-vis upconversion based on TTA have fundamental limitations. Herein, we report a strategy for NIR-vis TTA based on lanthanide-containing complexes to sensitize the upconversion. We demonstrate a β-diketonate complex of Yb
3+ paired with rubrene that emits yellow (λem = 559 nm) under NIR excitation (λexc = 980 nm). This corresponds to an exceptional anti-Stokes shift of just less than 1 eV. Thus, lanthanide complexes could unlock high-performance NIR-vis upconversion, with lanthanide sensitizers overcoming the energy loss, reabsorption, and short triplet lifetime that fundamentally limit porphyrin, nanocrystals, and direct S0 -T1 sensitizers.- Published

- Abstract
Herein, we report a method to produce luminescent silicon nanocrystals (SiNc) that strongly absorb ultraviolet-visible light (300-550 nm) and emit in the near-infrared range (700-1000 nm) with a high photoluminescence quantum yield (PLQY). Using microwave-assisted hydrosilylation and employing reactive chromophores - such as ethenyl perylene, ethynyl perylene and ethylene-m-phenyl BODIPY - we are able to achieve a 10- and 3-fold enhancement of the absorption in the blue and green spectral range, respectively. The investigated dyes function both as passivating agents and highly efficient antenna, which absorb visible light and transfer the energy to SiNc with an efficiency of >95%. This enhanced absorption leads to a significant photoluminescence enhancement, up to ∼270% and ∼140% under excitation with blue and green light, respectively. Despite the gain in absolute brightness of the emission, we demonstrate that back energy transfer from the SiNc to the dyes leads to a decrease in the PLQY for dye-modified SiNc, as compared to unmodified SiNc. The synthesis of the SiNc-dye conjugates opens up new possibilities for applications of this abundant and non-toxic material in the field of solar energy harvesting, optical sensing and bioimaging via achieving strong NIR PL excited with visible light.

- Abstract
A novel combination of a poly(vinylidene fluoride) (PVDF) membrane with pore size 0.2 μm and a photosensitizer 5,10,15,20-tetrakis (pentafluorophenyl)-21 H ,23 H -porphine palladium(II) (PdTFPP) makes a promising hybrid material for the generation of singlet oxygen (
1 O2 ) and, thus, water treatment applications. The fabricated photocatalytic membrane exhibits permeability of 4280 ± 250 L·m-2 ·h-1 ·bar-1 and stable photocatalytic degradation performance over a 90 h period, when illuminated with green light (528 ± 20 nm) and operated in a dead-end, single-pass configuration. Methylene blue (MB) degradation of 83% was achieved for MB concentration of 1 mg·L-1 under the flow rate of 0.1 × 10-3 L·min-1 (flux of 30 L·m-2 ·h-1 ), light intensity of 21 mW·cm-2 , and PdTFPP loading of 25 μmol·g-1 . Due to an enhanced mass transfer, the reaction rate of MB removal (with apparent rate constant of kapp = 6.52 min-1 ) results in an efficient photodegradation of MB inside the PdTFPP-PVDF membrane. The influence of experimental parameters such as catalyst loading, flow rate, light intensity, and solute concentration on MB removal was investigated. This research enables the application of photocatalytic PdTFPP-PVDF membranes as a potential technology for water decontamination under visible-light illumination.- Published

- Abstract
In photon upconversion (UC) based on triplet-triplet annihilation, the upconversion photoluminescent quantum yield (UC-PLQY) depends on the excitation power density in a way that can be described by a single figure of merit. This figure of merit, the threshold value, allows the excitation power density required for efficient UC-PLQY to be compared between different triplet-triplet annihilation systems. Here, we investigate the excitation power density dependence of two-photon UC processes in a series of four lanthanide-doped inorganic host materials (oxides, fluorides, and chlorides) all doped with 18 mol % Yb
3+ sensitizer ions and 2 mol % Er3+ activator ions. We demonstrate that an analogous figure of merit, which we call the critical power density (CPD), accurately describes the UC power dependence of these samples. Better CPD values are obtained when the lifetime of the intermediate states is long. The UC-PLQY at the CPD is linked to the saturation UC-PLQY. Thus, a measurement of the UC-PLQY at this low power density can be used to estimate the theoretical saturation UC-PLQY in the absence of deleterious effects such as laser-induced heating. This is compared to another method to estimate the saturation based on the CPD model, namely, taking half of the level's PLQY under direct excitation. Our careful analysis of the upconversion spectra as a function of excitation power density gives several insights into the differing upconversion pathways in the hosts and proves to be a useful tool for their comparison.- Published

- Abstract
Efficient photon-harvesting materials require easy-to-deposit materials exhibiting good absorption and excited-state transport properties. We demonstrate an organic thin-film material system, a palladium-porphyrin-based surface-anchored metal-organic framework (SURMOF) thin film that meets these requirements. Systematic investigations using transient absorption spectroscopy confirm that triplets are very mobile within single crystalline domains; a detailed analysis reveals a triplet transfer rate on the order of 10
10 s-1 . The crystalline nature of the SURMOFs also allows a thorough theoretical analysis using the density functional theory. The theoretical results reveal that the intermolecular exciton transfer can be described by a Dexter electron exchange mechanism that is considerably enhanced by virtual charge-transfer exciton intermediates. On the basis of the photophysical results, we predict exciton diffusion lengths on the order of several micrometers in perfectly ordered, single-crystalline SURMOFs. In the presently available samples, strong interactions of excitons with domain boundaries present in these metal-organic thin films limit the diffusion length to the diameter of these two-dimensional grains, which amount to about 100 nm. Our results demonstrate high potential of SURMOFs for light-harvesting applications.- Published

- Abstract
We report the synthesis of high-performance organic-inorganic hybrid fluorescent nanocapsules comprising a polymer shell armored with an inorganic layer and a liquid core containing a fluorophore. The polymeric capsules are synthesized by free radical miniemulsion polymerization and contain covalently bound carboxylate surface functionalities that allow for the binding of metal ions through electrostatic interaction. A cerium(IV) oxide nanoparticle layer, formed in situ at the surface of the hybrid nanocapsules, acts as oxygen scavenger and keeps external reactive molecular oxygen from entering into the capsules, eventually resulting in a reduction of the photooxidation of encapsulated fluorescent molecules. This approach shows an increase in the fluorescence of the model organic fluorophore terrylene diimide by avoiding the ground-state molecular oxygen to react with electronically excited states of the fluorescent hydrocarbon molecule.

- Abstract
The refractive indices of photoresists used for direct laser writing (DLW) have been determined after exposure to ultraviolet (UV) light. However, it was anticipated that the refractive index will differ when applying a two-photon polymerization (TPP) process. In this Letter, we demonstrate that this is indeed the case. Making use of a guided mode coupling approach, we measure the dispersive real part of the refractive index (n) of a commercial photoresist (IP-Dip, Nanoscribe) at very high accuracy. Additionally, the imaginary part of the refractive index (k) is determined from absorption measurements for wavelengths in the range 300 to 1700 nm. TPP layers exhibit a significantly lower refractive index than their UV exposed bulk counterparts (Δn up to 0.01). Furthermore, when fabricating a TPP shell and UV exposing the interior, the refractive index of the shell will not change. This is an important consideration for optical component design and opens the possibility for low refractive index difference wave guiding.

- Abstract
The concept of sequence-definition in the sense of polymer chemistry is introduced to conjugated, rod-like oligo(phenylene ethynylene)s via an iterative synthesis procedure. Specifically, monodisperse sequence-defined trimers and pentamers were prepared via iterative Sonogashira cross-coupling and deprotection. The reaction procedure was extended to tetra- and pentamers for the first time yielding a monodisperse pentamer with 18% and a sequence-defined pentamer with 3.2% overall yield. Furthermore, three novel trimers with a 9H-fluorene building block at predefined positions within the phenylene ethynylene chain were synthesised in 23-52% overall yields. Hence, it was confirmed that a functionality of interest can be incorporated selectively at a pre-defined position of these monodisperse oligomers. All respective intermediate structures were fully characterised by proton and carbon NMR, mass spectrometry, size-exclusion chromatography, and IR spectroscopy. Additionally, thermal and optical transitions are reported for the different oligomers.

- Abstract
Crystalline surface-anchored metal-organic framework (SURMOF) thin films made from porphyrin-based organic linkers have recently been used in both photon upconversion and photovoltaic applications. While these studies showed promising results, the question of photostability in this organic-inorganic hybrid material has to be investigated before applications can be considered. Here, we combine steady-state photoluminescence, transient absorption, and time-resolved electron paramagnetic resonance spectroscopy to examine the effects of prolonged illumination on a palladium-porphyrin based SURMOF thin film. We find that phototreatment leads to a change in the material's photoresponse caused by the creation of stable products of photodecomposition - likely chlorin - inside the SURMOF structure. When the mobile triplet excitons encounter such a defect site, a short-lived (80 ns) cation-anion radical pair can be formed by electron transfer, wherein the charges are localized at a porphyrin and the photoproduct site, respectively.

- Abstract
Efficient single-band NIR-to-NIR upconversion (UC) emission is strongly desired for many applications such as fluorescent markers, plastic recycling, and biological imaging. Herein, we report highly efficient single-band NIR-to-NIR UC emission in La
2 O3 :Yb3+ ,Tm3+ (LYT) microcrystals. Under 980 nm laser excitation, LYT exhibits a NIR UC emission at ∼795 nm (Tm3+ :3 H4 →3 H6 ) and blue UC emission at ∼476 nm; the NIR UC emission is dominant, with the intensity ratio of the NIR to blue INIR / Iblue > 100. Remarkably, a high absolute UC quantum yield (UCQY) of 3.4% is obtained for the single-band NIR UC emission of LYT at a relatively low excitation power density of 7.6 W/cm2 . This value is much higher than the reported values of a single-band NIR UC for rare-earth-based UC materials in literature, such as the well-known benchmark UC materials of β-NaYF4 :Yb3+ ,Er3+ (∼0.9%, with a excitation power density of 9 W/cm2 ) and Gd2 O2 S:Yb3+ ,Er3+ (∼1.9%, with a excitation power density of 20 W/cm2 ). The high absolute UCQY of single-band NIR UC emission combined with their facile preparation hints at their potential application in anti-counterfeiting, verified by the proof-of-concept demonstration of fluorescent labeling of a transparent IMT pattern.- Published

- Abstract
The upconversion quantum yield (ΦUC) is an essential parameter for the characterization of the optical performance of lanthanoid-doped upconverting nanoparticles (UCNPs). Despite its nonlinear dependence on excitation power density (Pexc), it is typically reported only as a single number. Here, we present the first measurement of absolute upconversion quantum yields of the individual emission bands of blue light-emitting LiYF4:Yb3+,Tm3+ UCNPs in toluene. Reporting the quantum yields for the individual emission bands is required for assessing the usability of UCNPs in various applications that require upconverted light of different wavelengths, such as bioimaging, photocatalysis and phototherapy. Here, the reliability of the ΦUC measurements is demonstrated by studying the same batch of UCNPs in three different research groups. The results show that whereas the total upconversion quantum yield of these UCNPs is quite high-typically 0.02 at a power density of 5 W cm-2-most of the upconverted photon flux is emitted in the 794 nm upconversion band, while the blue emission band at 480 nm is very weak, with a much lower quantum yield of ∼6 × 10-5 at 5 W cm-2. Overall, although the total upconversion quantum yield of LiYF4:Yb3+,Tm3+ UCNPs seems satisfying, notably for NIR bioimaging, blue-light demanding phototherapy applications will require better-performing UCNPs with higher blue light upconversion quantum yields.

- Abstract
We present two approaches to enhance the photoluminescence quantum yield (PLQY) of surface-anchored metal-organic frameworks (SURMOFs). In the first approach we fabricate SURMOFs from a mix of an emissive linker with an optically-inert linker of equivalent length, diluting the emissive linker while maintaining the SURMOF structure. This approach enhances the internal PLQY. However, the increase in internal PLQY is achieved at the expense of a drastic reduction in optical absorption, thus the external PLQY remains low. To overcome this limitation, a second approach is explored wherein energy-accepting guest chromophores are infiltrated into the framework of the active linker. At the correct acceptor concentration, an internal PLQY of 52% - three times higher than the previous approach - is achieved. Additionally, the absorption remains strong leading to an external PLQY of 8%, an order of magnitude better than the previous approach. Using this strategy, we demonstrate that SURMOFs can achieve PLQYs similar to their precursor chromophores in solution. This is of relevance to SURMOFs as emitter layers in general, and we examine the optimized emitter layer as part of a photon upconversion (UC) SURMOF heterostructure. Surprisingly, the same PLQY is not observed after triplet-triplet annihilation in the UC heterostructure as after its normal photoexcitation (although the UC layers exhibit low thresholds consistent with those reported in our previous work). We discuss the potential bottlenecks in energy transport that could lead to this unexpected reduction in PLQY after excitation via triplet-triplet annihilation, and how future design of SURMOF UC multilayers could overcome these limitations.

- Abstract
Herein, we report a microwave-assisted hydrosilylation (MWH) reaction for the surface passivation of silicon nanocrystals (Si-NCs) with linear alkenes. The MWH reaction requires only 20 minutes and allows us to produce Si-NCs with high photoluminescence quantum yields (PLQYs), reaching 39% with an emission maximum of 860 nm. Furthermore, we investigated the effect of ligand length on the photoluminescence properties of Si-NCs. We tested six alkenes with an even number of carbon atoms (from hexene-1 to hexadecene-1). The highest PLQY combined with a long stability (test period of 6 months) was observed when capping with the shortest ligand, hexene-1. The use of microwave heating turns the hydrosilylation step into a facile and sustainable process. In order to provide insight into the emissive properties of Si-NCs surface oxidation and luminescence decay were investigated using Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy and time-resolved photoluminescence measurements., Competing Interests: There are no conflicts to declare., (This journal is © The Royal Society of Chemistry.)

- Abstract
An electron donor-acceptor dyad based on BODIPY (acceptor) and anthracene (donor) plays either the role of sensitizer or emitter in triplet-triplet annihilation photon up-conversion (TTA-UC). This Janus-like behavior was achieved via altering the relative ordering of charge-transfer and local excited state energies in the dyad through the polarity of TTA-UC media.

- Abstract
Triplet-triplet annihilation up-conversion (TTA-UC) is a developing technology that can enable spectral conversion under sunlight. Previously, it was found that efficient TTA-UC can be realized in polymer hosts for temperatures above the polymer's glass transition (T > T
g ). In contrast, TTA-UC with high quantum yield for temperatures below Tg is rarely reported. In this article, we report new polymer hosts in which efficient TTA-UC is observed well below Tg , when the polymer is in a fully solid state. The four poly(olefin sulfone) hosts were loaded with upconversion dyes, and absolute quantum yields of TTA-UC (ηTTA-UC ) were measured. The highest value of ηTTA-UC = 2.1% was measured for poly(1-dodecene sulfone). Importantly, this value was the same in vacuum and at ambient conditions, indicating that the host material acts as a good oxygen barrier. We performed time-resolved luminescence experiments in order to elucidate the impact of elementary steps of TTA-UC. In addition to optical characterization, we used magic angle spinning solid-state NMR experiments to estimate the T2 transverse relaxation time. Relatively long T2 times measured for poly(olefin sulfone)s indicate an enhanced nanoscale fluidity in the studied (co)polymers, which unexpectedly coexists with a rigidity on the macroscale. This would explain the exceptional triplet energy transfer between the guest molecules, despite the macroscopic rigidity.- Published

- Abstract
Triplet transfer across a surface-anchored metal-organic-framework heterojunction is demonstrated by the observation of triplet-triplet annihilation photon -upconversion in a sensitizer-emitter heterostructure. Upconversion thresholds under 1 mW cm
-2 are achieved. In the broader context, the double-electron-exchange mechanism of triplet transfer indicates that the heterojunction quality is sufficient for electrons to move between layers in this solution-processed crystalline heterostructure., (© 2016 WILEY-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co.

- Abstract
The synthesis and photophysical characterization of a palladium(II) porphyrin - anthracene dyad bridged via short and conformationally rigid bicyclo[2.2.2]octadiene spacer were achieved. A spectroscopic investigation of the prepared molecule in solution has been undertaken to study electronic energy transfer in excited singlet and triplet states between the anthracene and porphyrin units. By using steady-state and time-resolved photoluminescence spectroscopy it was shown that excitation of the singlet excited state of the anthracene leads to energy transfer to the lower-lying singlet state of porphyrin. Alternatively, excitation of the porphyrin followed by intersystem crossing to the triplet state leads to very fast energy transfer to the triplet state of anthracene. The rate of this energy transfer has been determined by transient absorption spectroscopy. Comparative studies of the dynamics of triplet excited states of the dyad and reference palladium octaethylporphyrin (PdOEP) have been performed.

- Abstract
Triplet-triplet annihilation upconversion (TTA-UC) nanocapsules are synthesized under oxygen-protective conditions (i.e., complete darkness and argon atmosphere) by free-radical miniemulsion polymerization. These conditions help to exclude the oxidation of the emitter molecules caused by singlet oxygen, generated during the synthesis at daylight conditions and oxygen-rich environment. Subsequently, keeping all the other experimental conditions the same, samples synthesized at protective conditions demonstrate substantially increased UC efficiency. These experimental facts strongly support the hypothesis that posterior removing of oxygen from TTA-UC nanocapsules is not sufficient to obtain reproducible and sustainable UC results. The schematic representation shows the influence of sunlight on the formation of singlet oxygen and its effect on the triplet-triplet annihilation upconversion process., (© 2015 WILEY-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co.

- Abstract
We demonstrate that photoactivated oxygen addition to diphenylanthracene moities can be used as a tool for protection of porphyrin's phosphorescence against oxygen quenching. Phosphorescent palladium(II) tetrabenzoporphyrin, covalently linked to four diphenylanthracene moieties, was synthesized and studied. Upon irradiation with ambient light or red laser in solution in air, addition of oxygen and formation of the corresponding endoperoxides were observed. Heating of the irradiated samples afforded the parent porphyrin material.

- Abstract
The development of solid materials which are able to upconvert optical radiation into photons of higher energy is attractive for many applications such as photocatalytic cells and photovoltaic devices. However, to fully exploit triplet-triplet annihilation photon energy upconversion (TTA-UC), oxygen protection is imperative because molecular oxygen is an ultimate quencher of the photon upconversion process. So far, reported solid TTA-UC materials have focused mainly on elastomeric matrices with low barrier properties because the TTA-UC efficiency generally drops significantly in glassy and semicrystalline matrices. To overcome this limit, for example, combine effective and sustainable annihilation upconversion with exhaustive oxygen protection of dyes, we prepare a sustainable solid-state-like material based on nanocellulose. Inspired by the structural buildup of leaves in Nature, we compartmentalize the dyes in the liquid core of nanocellulose-based capsules which are then further embedded in a cellulose nanofibers (NFC) matrix. Using pristine cellulose nanofibers, a sustainable and environmentally friendly functional nanomaterial with ultrahigh barrier properties is achieved. Also, an ensemble of sensitizers and emitter compounds are encapsulated, which allow harvesting of the energy of the whole deep-red sunlight region. The films demonstrate excellent lifetime in synthetic air (20.5/79.5, O2/N2)-even after 1 h operation, the intensity of the TTA-UC signal decreased only 7.8% for the film with 8.8 μm thick NFC coating. The lifetime can be further modulated by the thickness of the protective NFC coating. For comparison, the lifetime of TTA-UC in liquids exposed to air is on the level of seconds to minutes due to fast oxygen quenching.

- Abstract
Non-toxic and biocompatible triplet-triplet annihilation upconversion based nanocapsules (size less than 225 nm) were successfully fabricated by the combination of miniemulsion and solvent evaporation techniques. A first type of nanocapsules displays an upconversion spectrum characterized by the maximum of emission at λmax = 550 nm under illumination by red light, λexc = 633 nm. The second type of nanocapsules fluoresces at λmax = 555 nm when excited with deep-red light, λexc = 708 nm. Conventional confocal laser scanning microscopy (CLSM) and flow cytometry were applied to determine uptake and toxicity of the nanocapsules for various (mesenchymal stem and HeLa) cells. Red light (λexc = 633 nm) with extremely low optical power (less than 0.3 μW) or deep-red light (λexc = 708 nm) was used in CLSM experiments to generate green upconversion fluorescence. The cell images obtained with upconversion excitation demonstrate order of magnitude better signal to background ratio than the cell images obtained with direct excitation of the same fluorescence marker., (© 2013 WILEY-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co.

- Abstract
We present a method for the fabrication of ultralight upconverting mats consisting of rigid polymer nanofibers. The mats are prepared by simultaneously electrospinning an aqueous solution of a polymer with pronounced oxygen-barrier properties and functional nanocapsules containing a sensitizer/emitter couple optimized for triplet-triplet annihilation photon upconversion. The optical functionality of the nanocapsules is preserved during the electrospinning process. The nanofibers demonstrate efficient upconversion fluorescence centered at λ
max = 550 nm under low intensity excitation with a continuous wave laser (λ = 635 nm, power = 5 mW). The pronounced oxygen-barrier property of the polymer matrix may efficiently prevent the oxygen penetration so upconversion fluorescence is registered in ambient atmosphere. The demonstrated method can be used for the production of upconverting ultralight porous coatings for sensors or upconverting membranes with freely variable thickness for solar cells.- Published
