Journal ArticleDOI

A H-bond strategy to develop acid-resistant photoswitchable rhodamine spirolactams for super-resolution single-molecule localization microscopy

TL;DR: In this article, a series of acid-resistant rhodamine spirolactams with accelerated ring-closing reactions from fluorescent xanthyliums to non-fluorescent spiactams, endowing them with good photoswitchable properties even in acidic environments.
Journal ArticleDOI

Energy Migration Upconversion in Manganese(II)-Doped Nanoparticles

TL;DR: Both experimental and theoretical studies provide evidence for Mn(2+) doping in the lanthanide-based host lattice arising from the formation of F(-) vacancies around Mn( 2+) ions to maintain charge neutrality in the shell layer.
Journal ArticleDOI

Molecular Mechanism of Viscosity Sensitivity in BODIPY Rotors and Application to Motion-Based Fluorescent Sensors.

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that the transformation energy barrier from the planar conformation to the butterfly conformation is strongly affected by the molecular structures of BODIPY rotors, and plays a critical role in viscosity sensitivity.
Journal ArticleDOI

Nonlinear spectral and lifetime management in upconversion nanoparticles by controlling energy distribution

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that the incorporation of energy distributors, such as surface defects or an extra amount of dopants, into a rare-earth-based host lattice alters the decay behavior of excited sensitizers, thus markedly improving the emitters' sensitivity to excitation power.
Journal ArticleDOI

Optical Torques on Upconverting Particles for Intracellular Microrheometry

TL;DR: This work reports on how time-resolved, single particle polarized spectroscopy can be used to determine the orientation dynamics of a single upconverting particle when entering into an optical trap.
