We investigate plasmon-enhanced upconversion (UC) fluorescence in Yb3+-Er3+-Gd+3 codoped sodium yttrium fluoride (NaYF4: Yb/Er/Gd) nanorods using gold nanoparticles or nanoshells. A simple method was proposed for the preparation of core/shell NaYF4/Au structures, with dispersed Au nanoparticles or uniform Au coating on the surface of the UC nanorod. Pure hexagonal-phase NaYF4: Yb/Er/Gd nanorods were synthesized via a liquid-solid reaction in oleic acid and ethanol solvent. A one-step approach was introduced to modify the hydrophobic surfaces of the as-deposited NaYF4: Yb/Er/Gd nanorods. After this surface modification, Au nanoparticles or nanoshells were successfully attached on the surfaces of NaYF4: Yb/Er/Gd nanorods. The as-deposited UC nanorods showed a strong UC emission in green and red bands under 980nm laser excitation. The attachment of Au nanoparticles onto NaYF4: Yb/Er/Gd nanorods resulted in a more than three-fold increase in UC emissions, whereas the formation of continuous and compact Au shells around the nanorods suppressed the emissions. The related interaction mechanisms of the UC emission of NaYF4: Yb/Er/Gd nanorods with plasmon modes in Au nanostructures are analyzed and discussed. (C) 2012 American Institute of Physics.
