Photochemically deoxygenating gels for triplet–triplet annihilation photon-upconversion performed under air

Abstract

for the limonene gel, and the upconversion quantum yields were 9.1% and 1.9% in PVP and limonene gels, respectively. As matrices, the PVP gel can be employed in NIR-to-yellow, red-to-cyan, green-to-blue and blue-to-violet TTA-UC systems operating under air. TTA-UC systems of Pt(OEP)/DPA in PVP or limonene gels showed strong upconverted emission under air with non-coherent light of low optical power density as the excitation source.
