Complex oxide YVO4 multi-shell hollow spheres with uniform morphologies and controllable shell numbers are successfully prepared by using a newly developed and general composite yttrium-carbonaceous sphere templated approach. The prominent upconversion luminous intensity of the YVO4 :Yb3+ /Er3+ hollow spheres might be attributed to the enhanced near-infrared excitation light harvesting efficiency originated from the multiple reflections.
