Lanthanide up-conversion features stepwise multi-photon processes, where the difference in photon number that is required for specific up-conversion process usually leads to significant variance in pumping-related processes/properties. In this work, a pumping-controlled dual-mode anti-counterfeiting strategy is conceived by taking advantage of the combination of up-conversion processes with different photon numbers. The combination of Er 3+  and Tm 3+ , which are spatially separated within a designed core/triple-shell nano-architecture, is taken as an example to illustrate such idea. Upon infrared excitation, the emission color of a designed pattern can be switched from red to purple by increasing the excitation power density from 5 to 11 W/cm 2 , while a bright luminescent trajectory including red, white and blue-green color with different length is observed when rotating the pattern above 600 rpm. In addition, the relative up-conversion emission intensities of the Er 3+  and Tm 3+  ions can be manipulated through tailoring interfacial or inner defects in the core/triple-shell nano-crystals, which enable an ultrahigh sensitivity for the pumping-controlled emission color variation to be observed under excitation power well below 11 W/cm 2 .
