Abstract

Fig. S1. TEM (a) and HRTEM (b) images of amino modified NaYF4:Yb,Er UCNPs. Corresponding FFT/IFFT given as insets in b, confirms that much smaller crystallites notable at the particles surfaces (a) revealed periodic array of cubic alpha phase, (111) plane with d value of 3.140 Å; Fig. S2. XPS spectrum of amino-functionalized NaYF4:Yb,Er UCNPs: survey spectrum and fine-scan spectra of Na 1s, Y 3d, Yb 4d, Er 4d, F 1s and decomposed ones of C 1s, O 1s and N 1s; Fig. S3.
