Recent progress in the green synthesis of rare-earth doped upconversion nanophosphors for optical bioimaging from cells to animals

© 2017 Elsevier B.V. Rare-earth doped upconversion nanophosphors (UCNPs), which convert low energy near-infrared (NIR) photons into high energy photons such as ultraviolet, visible light and NIR light, have found various applications in optical bioimaging. In this review article, we summarize recent...
