An efficient near-infrared (NIR) quantum cutting (QC) in Ce 3+ , Yb 3+ co-doped YBO 3 phosphors has been demonstrated, which involves the emission of two low-energy NIR photons (around 973 nm) from an absorbed ultra-violet (UV) photon at 358 nm via a cooperative energy transfer (CET) from Ce 3+ to Y
