About this Research Topic
This Research Topic intends to collect the latest advances regarding the developments in upconversion nanosystems. Original Research, mini-review, and review articles in the fields ranging from materials synthesis, characterization, fabrication, and optical properties, to upconversion mechanism, energy transfer study, and the widespread applications of UCNPs are welcome. Progresses in any other fields which are related to the developments and applications of photon upconversion materials are also welcome.
Sub-topics include but are not limited to:
- Synthesis, fabrication, and functionalization of upconversion nanoparticles
- Optical properties of upconversion nanoparticles
- Energy transfer mechanisms of upconversion nanoparticles
- Hybrid upconversion nanosystems
- Single particle characterization and spectroscopy of upconversion nanoparticles
- Applications of upconversion nanosystems
Keywords: photon upconversion, spectroscopy, hybrid nanosystems, energy transfer, optical properties
Important Note: All contributions to this Research Topic must be within the scope of the section and journal to which they are submitted, as defined in their mission statements. Frontiers reserves the right to guide an out-of-scope manuscript to a more suitable section or journal at any stage of peer review.
