Mulder, J.T. (author), Jenkinson, Kellie (author), Toso, Stefano (author), Prato, Mirko (author), Evers, W.H. (author), Bals, Sara (author), Manna, Liberato (author), Houtepen, A.J. (author)Lanthanide-doped LiYF4 (Ln:YLF) is commonly used for a broad variety of optical applications, such as lasing, photon upconversion and optical refrigeration. When synthesized as nanocrystals (NCs), this material is also of interest for biological applications and fundamental physical studies. Until now, it was unclear how Ln:YLF NCs grow from...journal article 2023

(author), Houtepen, A.J. (author)Indium antimonide (InSb) quantum dots (QDs) have unique and interesting photophysical properties, but widespread experimentation with InSb QDs is lacking due to the difficulty in synthesizing this material. The key experimental challenge in fabricating InSb QDs is preparing a suitable Sb-precursor in the correct oxidation state that reacts...journal article 2018
