Abstract :
Upconversion nanoparticles have found numerous applications, based on their tunable photo-physical and chemical properties. My talk will summarize our recent contributions to the field by discovering a new library of super dots using the state-of-the-art nanophotonic tools for single particle studies. We emphasize that nanophotonic characterization of single fluorescent nanoparticles is the key in discovery of new physical properties of and translating the new nanomaterials into novel applications. Possibilities and challenges in development of high performance fluorescent nanomaterials/hybrid nanostructures, high horizontal characterization techniques, and ongoing trend towards biophotonics and nanophotonics applications are discussed.
