In liquid-solid-solution (LSS) method, when NaOH in the traditional oleic acid/sodium oleate/alcohol reaction system was replaced by ammonia, ammonia reacted with oleic acid, and then a new kind surfactant generated. So, this method can be used to synthesize monodispersed ultrasmall REF₃ nanocrystals. In this new reaction system, ultrasmall YF₃ and GdF₃ nanocrystals have been synthesized. X-ray diffraction (XRD) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM) assays revealed that the as-synthesized YF₃ was orthorhombic structure, but GdF₃ was face-centered cubic phase (S. G.: Fm3m, lattice constant: 0.5829 nm). Under the excitation of 980 nm diode laser, strong green photoluminescence at 515~570 nm and strong red emission at 645~675 nm of YF₃:Yb/Er were detected, so the luminescent color of YF₃:Yb/Er nanocrystals presented orange. Intense blue emission peaks at 460~490 nm from YF₃:Yb/Tm and GdF₃:Yb/Tm nanocrystals were detected, especially the stronger near-infrared photoluminescence peaks near 800 nm. For the ultrasmall size and its relative strong upconversion luminescence, the as-synthesized samples show potential applications in bioimaging, biolabels and etc.
