The final bi-luminescent hybrids exhibit Ln(III) (Ln = Eu and Yb) centred luminescence upon QD excitation, suggesting that an energy transfer occurs from the QD to the lanthanide.Sensitisation of visible and NIR lanthanide emission by InPZnS quantum dots in bi-luminescent hybridstext::journal::journal article::research article
