Trapped in Out-of-Equilibrium Stationary State: Hot Brownian Motion in Optically Trapped Upconverting Nanoparticles

Upconverting nanoparticles typically absorb low frequency radiation and emit at higher frequencies relying underwater treasures sunken medallion upon multiphoton processes.One such type of particle is NaYF4:Yb,Er, which absorbs at 975 nm while emitting in visible radiation.Such particles have routinely been optically trapped.However, we find that t
