Upconversion SPT (uSPT), employing lanthanide-doped nanoparticles (UCNPs) as probes, enables extended imaging durations; however, its broader application is hindered by the trade-off between nanoparticle size and brightness. To overcome this limitation, we designed ∼10 nm core-shell-shell UCNPs incorporating strontium-based alkaline-earth materials, achieving both compact dimensions and enhanced luminescence. These engineered UCNPs exhibit a 4.6-fold increase in brightness compared to that of conventional sodium-based counterparts. Using these probes, we tracked epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) dynamics and identified four distinct motion states (immobile, confined, free, and directed) highlighting the motional heterogeneity and reversible transitions of individual EGFR. Treatment with latrunculin A markedly altered these motional states, underscoring the critical role of the cytoskeleton in regulating EGFR dynamics. Collectively, our findings demonstrate the utility of uSPT for probing membrane protein behavior and dissecting complex cellular processes.","PeriodicalId":53,"journal":{"name":"Nano Letters","volume":"54 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":10.8,"publicationDate":"2025-07-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144720124","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"材料科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Here, we demonstrate 3D-printed plasmonic nanoantenna arrays featuring record aspect ratios (15:1), miniaturized features (∼40 nm), and high density (1.0 × 106 mm-2) on silicon wafers. Our approach enables the single-step fabrication of vertically standing multimaterial nanoantennas with unified dimensional control, thereby overcoming challenges in 3D plasmonic integration. By engineering material composition and layer arrangement in hybrid architectures, one can tune localized surface plasmon resonances across the visible spectrum, while polarization-selective responses enable multifunctional operation. These 3D-printed nanoantennas eliminate parasitic substrate losses inherent to planar designs and exhibit broadband operation through complementary plasmonic modes. The combined capabilities of high-density integration, spectral tunability, and out-of-plane control position this platform as a practical tool in photodetection, solar-energy devices, and on-chip nanophotonics.","PeriodicalId":53,"journal":{"name":"Nano Letters","volume":"16 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":10.8,"publicationDate":"2025-07-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144720125","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"材料科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
