Infrared Photon Pair-Production in Ligand-Sensitized Lanthanide Nanocrystals

This report details spectroscopic characterizations of rare-earth, core-shell nanoparticles decorated with the f-element chelator 3,4,3-LI(1,2-HOPO). Evidence of photon downconversion is corroborated through detailed power dependence measurements, which suggest two-photon decay paths are active in t...
