The well-defined NaGdF4:Yb,Er nanorods (NRs) with various aspect ratios were synthesized using a facile hydrothermal method. The morphology and crystal phase of NRs could be controlled by reaction conditions. NaGdF4:Yb,Er NRs with various aspect ratios could be synthesized and their upconversion (UC) luminescence was tuned. It is displayed that the NRs with aspect ratios about 5 exhibited the strongest UC luminescence among samples. The growth mechanism and morphology transition of NRs had been deduced by schematic diagram. And UC mechanism had been determined by energy level diagrams. Compared with previous reports, the work provided a facial method for UCNRs with various aspect ratios at lower temperature.

ABSTRACTA facile and novel method of fabricating large-area-patterned monolayer of polytetrafluoroethylene(PTFE) nanoparticles was achieved using surface charge induced colloidal deposition. Chemical processes of amination and hydroxylation were used to make the silicon substrates positively and negatively charged, respectively, while the PTFE colloidal nanoparticles were anisotropic and negatively charged. After colloidal deposition, an ordered monolayer with microholes was formed on the amination surface, while an island-like monolayer was achieved on the hydroxylation surface. Both of the two kinds of monolayers were as large as 1.5 square centimeters. It is worth pointing out that these large-area-patterned monolayers were fabricated without any templates and the whole process only took several hours. The formation mechanism of the different structures can be generally attributed to the cooperation and competition of three-body, two-body and particle-wall interactions. It is believed that the interesting patterned monolayer formation mechanism, high production efficiency, good adaptability and quality will make this novel method attractive.

We have employed Interferometric Lithography (IL) for sub-wavelength surface texturing on large area silicon substrates. Low defect density Reactive Ion Etching (RIE) processes have been developed to transfer the pattern into the silicon using SF 6 plasma. Reflection measurements on the sub-wavelength textured surface have been carried out and show a substantial reduction from ~30% to below 4% over the spectrum range from 400nm to 1200nm. IL is a mask-less lithography technique which is used to define periodic patterns. The theoretical limit of the pitch size of the structure is half of the wavelength of the light source. Hence, the sub-wavelength patterns can be achieved easily. Moreover, sub-wavelength texturing requires short RIE processes; most of the plasma-induced damage on the silicon surface can be avoided.
