Abstract
Far-field super-resolution optical technology provides ways for high-capacity super-resolution optical data storage. Typical techniques necessitate high laser beam power and lead to photo-damage. Since they can convert near-infrared excitation to ultraviolet and visible emission, upconversion nanoparticles have potential for photo-activation. Furthermore, they have excited energy levels with long lifetime for low-power super-resolution optical microscopy. We demonstrate the application of upconversion nanoparticles with high-order luminescence emission for low-power super-resolution photo-activation for low-power super-resolution optical data storage. Upconversion nanoparticles were mixed with photo-active compounds. To stimulate photo-activation in the nanocomposite, super-resolution irradiation was used. Written features demonstrated super-resolution size upon low laser beam power.
