Sentences with phrase «upconversion nanoparticles»

Although this method was developed with upconversion nanoparticles, the researchers believe their new «direct - doping» approach can be generalised to other nanoparticles with interesting photonic, electronic and magnetic properties.

«These novel luminescent nanoparticles, called upconversion nanoparticles, have become promising candidates for a whole variety of ultra-high tech applications such as biological sensing, biomedical imaging and 3D volumetric displays,» says lead author Dr Tim Zhao, from the University of Adelaide's School of Physical Sciences and Institute for Photonics and Advanced Sensing (IPAS).

To date, the method used to integrate upconversion nanoparticles into glass has relied on the in - situ growth of the nanoparticles within the glass.

Han has developed an «upconversion nanoparticle» (UCNP) that has the potential to solve the limitations of wired optogenetic techniques.
