Au nanorod decoration on NaYF 4 :Yb/Tm nanoparticles for enhanced emission and wavelength-dependent biomolecular sensing

We introduce gold nanorods (GNRs) decoration on NaYF4:Yb/Tm upconversion nanocrystals (UCNCs) by functionalizing the UCNCs with polyamidoamine generation 1 (PAMAM G1) dendrimer, followed by a single-step seed-mediated growth of long-range GNRs to enhance “biological window” upconversion emission.
