Graphical Abstract
A hollow victory: Hollow-sphere nanocrystals are fabricated by electron-beam lithography in a self-assembled luminescent NaYF4:Yb,Er nanocrystal monolayer (see picture). The formation mechanism is a heat-induced inner acid-etching process. Pattern formation can be achieved with single-nanoparticle resolution. The 20-nm β-NaYF4:Yb,Er nanocrystal monolayer acts as a data-storage medium.
