Application of a microfluidic reaction system for CdSe nanocrystal preparation: their growth kinetics and photoluminescence analysis

Abstract

We used a microreactor for CdSe nanocrystal preparation and explored the effects of experimental conditions on the properties of the products. The particle growth kinetics and photoluminescence properties of the nanocrystals showed identical trends to previous reports, indicating the efficiency of the current method for analysis of rapid nanocrystal synthesis as well as industrial production of CdSe nanocrystals.
