Abstract
. Furthermore, by taking advantage of ICG sensitization, we realized a largely enhanced emission from the UVC to NIR spectral region. This study provides a mechanistic understanding of the upconversion and downshifting processes within a heterogeneous architecture while offering exciting opportunities for important biological and energy applications.
