Graphical abstract: Synthesis of water-soluble β-NaYF4 nanocrystals in a green way

http://pubs.rsc.org/en/Content/ArticleLanding/2014/CE/C4CE00643G?utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=pub-CE-vol-16-issue-29&utm_source=toc-alert#!divAbstract

Pure β-NaYF4 nanocrystals with a hexagonal phase were synthesized in a novel way at low temperature using sparingly soluble rare-earth salts as precursors and ethanol–water as the solvent. The phase of the products could be controlled by adjusting the water content. An up-converting aqueous colloidal solution and a transparent film were obtained through a simple post-treatment.
