摘要
One dimensional(1D)nanostructures attract considerable attention,enabling a broad application owing to their unique properties.However,the precise mechanism of 1D morphology attainment remains a matter of debate.In this study,ultrafast picosecond(ps)laser-induced treatment on upconversion nanoparticles(UCNPs)is offered as a tool for 1 D-nanostructures formation.Fragmentation,reshaping through recrystallization process and bioadaptation of initially hydrophobic(β-Na_(1.5)Y_(1.5_)F_(6):Yb^(3+),Tm^(3+)/β-Na_(1.5)Y_(1.5_)F_(6))core/shell nanoparticles by means of one-step laser treatment in water are demonstrated.“True”1D nanostructures through"Medusa^-like structures can be obtained,maintaining anti-Stokes luminescence functionalities.A matter of the one-dimensional UCNPs based on direction of energy migration processes is debated.The proposed laser treatment approach is suitable for fast UCNP surface modification and nano-to-nano transformation,that open unique opportunities to expand UCNP applications in industry and biomedicine.
