Abstract
Incoherent photochemical upconversion is a process by which low-energy light can be converted into a higher-energy form with promising applications in solar energy conversion and storage, photocatalysis, biological imaging, and photochemical drug activation. Despite intensive research in recent years, there remains an underappreciation of the chemical kinetics that controls the efficiency of the upconversion process. Here, we provide a brief overview of research into photochemical upconversion and provide a tutorial to guide the design of efficient upconversion compositions. We further provide our perspective on where this area of research is heading and how very efficient systems will be developed.
