Fluorescent and magnetic bifunctional NaLuF4:Yb3+/Tm3+/Gd3+ nanocrystals were synthesized by the solvothermal method and subsequent surface modification. By changing the doping concentration of Gd3+, the shape, size, luminescent properties, and magnetic properties of the nanoparticles can be modulated. These NaLuF4:Yb3+/Tm3+/Gd3+ nanocrystals present efficient blue upconversion fluorescence and excellent paramagnetic property at room temperature. Based on the luminescence resonance energy transfer (LRET), upconversion nanoparticles (UCNPs) were confirmed to be an efficient fluorescent nanoprobe for detecting acriflavine. It is easy to derive the concentration of acriflavine from the Integral Intensity Ratio of Green (emission from acriflavine) to Blue (emission from UCNPs) fluorescent signals. Based on this upconversion fluorescent nanoprobe, the detection limit of acriflavine can reach up to 0.32 μg/mL.

Synthesis process and luminescence properties of trivalent lanthanide ions (Ln3+) doped YF3 nanoparticles have been investigated. To synthesis Ln3+-doped YF3 nanoparticles, the mixture of (YCl3·nH2O + LnCl3·nH2O), and NH4F was hydrothermal treated at 180 °C in a Teflon-liner auto-clave or heated at higher temperatures (400 °C ∼ 600 °C) in a stove. The XRD patterns showed that the Ln3+-doped orthorhombic YF3 nanoparticles with no second phase have been prepared. The solid solution Y1−xEuxF3 (x = 0 ∼ 0.4) nanoparticles have been synthesized. The luminescence concentration quenching resulted from resonance energy transfer between neighboring Eu3+ ions occurred at higher Eu3+ concentrations (30 mol%). The upconversion luminescence of Er3+−Yb3+ codoped YF3 nanoparticles under 980 nm excitation has also been observed. With increase of heated temperature, the size of the Er3+−Yb3+ codoped YF3 nanoparticles increased gradually, and upconversion luminescence intensity increased significantly.

A series of NaYF4: Yb3+, Er3+ nanoparticles with different doping concentration were successfully prepared by the combination of coprecipitation and hydrothermal methods using sodium citrate as chelator. Upconversion luminescence can be observed in all of the samples at room temperature. Fixed the Er3+ concentration with 1 mol% unchanged, the effect of the Yb3+ concentration on the upconversion luminescence of NaYF4: Yb3+, Er3+ samples were studied when the doped Yb3+ concentrations were 0 mol%, 1 mol%, 2 mol%, 5 mol%, 10 mol% and 20 mol%, respectively. As increasing the Yb3+ concentration, the total intensity of the upconversion luminescence of the samples is increasing while the ratio of red to green emission increases firstly and then decreases. The maximum ratio value is 22.1 when the Yb3+ concentration is 10 mol%. It is found that the cross relaxation and cooperative sensitization effect are the reasons for the phenomenon above.

Excitons are created in Zn1−xMnxS under photo-excitation. A fraction of the excitons transfers their energy to ZnS's intrinsic traps, generating blue emission, whereas the remaining excitons are utilized to excite Mn2+ ions, showing orange emission.
