Single‐Band Upconversion Emission in Lanthanide‐Doped KMnF₃ Nanocrystals

Abstract

Clear sight: The upconversion emission spectra of KMnF3 nanocrystals co-doped with Yb/Er (18:2 mol %; see picture) and Yb/Ho (18:2 mol %) reveal strong single-band emissions. The application of this pure, single-band emission for deep-tissue imaging is demonstrated. Detailed facts of importance to specialist readers are published as ”Supporting Information”.
