Scientists Stunned by Reverse Phenomenon Where Infrared Light Gives Off Brighter Light Without Defects

In a groundbreaking discovery, researchers have found that certain materials exhibit up-conversion photoluminescence (UCPL), where low-energy infrared light is absorbed and converted into higher-energy bright light. While conventional wisdom suggests the opposite occurs, scientists at RIKEN's laboratory have successfully demonstrated this phenomenon in pristine single-walled carbon nanotubes, challenging earlier theories
