Oil Dispersible Upconverting Nanoparticles

Upconverting Nanoparticles:
Upconverting nanoparticles are a class of nanomaterials that possess unique optical properties allowing them to absorb low-energy near-infrared light and convert it into higher-energy visible or ultraviolet light. This process, known as upconversion, is achieved through a series of nonlinear photon absorption and energy transfer steps within the nanoparticle structure.
Upconverting nanoparticles are typically composed of inorganic host materials doped with lanthanide ions such as ytterbium, erbium, or thulium. The choice of host material and dopants can be carefully tailored to control the upconversion processes and emitted wavelengths of light. Upconverting nanoparticles have several advantages over conventional organic fluorescent dyes, including higher photochemical stability, lower photobleaching rates, and minimal autofluorescence background.

Our Products

Oil dispersible upconverting nanoparticles are nanoscale particles that have the ability to convert low-energy photons, such as infrared light, into higher-energy visible or ultraviolet light. These nanoparticles are designed to be easily dispersed in oil-based solutions and are therefore suitable for a variety of oil-based applications.
