Morphology Control and Upconversion Enhancement in NaYF₄:Yb³⁺,Er³⁺ Crystals via Ca²⁺ Ions Doping

Abstract:

Pure hexagonal NaYF₄:Yb³⁺,Er³⁺ crystals via doping with Ca²⁺ ions have been successfully prepared by a facile hydrothermal method. The morphology of the crystals was changed from microrods to microprisms. The upconversion (UC) luminescence properties of the as-prepared samples were investigated in detail.
