Figure 6.

Red UCNP luminescence is enhanced due to the change in crystal lattice parameter induced by Mn2+ co-doping. Main figure: upconversion luminescence from UCNPs, 6.0 mg ml−1 in EtOH, λex = 980 nm, normalized to intensity at 540 nm. Green emission arises from the 2H11/24I15/2 and 4S3/24I15/2 transitions. Red emission arises from the 4F9/24I15/2 transition. Inset: crystal lattice parameter, a, is strongly inversely correlated with UCNP red/green emission ratio (correlation coefficient = −0.97). Values calculated from eight XRD peaks; error bars = standard deviation.
