Water soluble NaYF4 nanocrystals codoped with 20 mol% Yb3+, 0.5 mol% Tm3+ were prepared by a facile solvothermal approach using polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP) as a surfactant. The upconversion NaYF4 nanocrystals were pure cubic phase with an average size of similar to 40 nm. They could be well redispersed in water to form a clearly transparent solution without obvious precipitation. With the excitation of a 980-nm diode laser, the nanocrystal solution presents bright violet and blue upconversion luminescence. These upconversion nanoparticles (UCNPs) were incubated with HeLa cells at 37 degrees C for 24 h, and bright blue upconversion luminescence were observed from the UCNPs endocytosed into the HeLa cells on a microscope equipped with a 980-nm fiber laser. These results indicated that the UCNPs had potential applications for biological imaging as luminescent probes. (C) 2011 Elsevier B. V. All rights reserved.
