摘要
The online analysis of cadmium selenide nanoparticle formation in continuous-flow microfluidic reactors is described. The as-produced particles exhibit sharp excitonic absorption and emission peaks ( similar to30 - 40 nm) with relatively high quantum efficiencies (similar to10%). The mean size and dispersity of the particles, determined using on-line fluorescence detection, may be controlled by varying the reaction temperature and/or the flow rate. The microfluidic approach provides considerable control over nucleation/growth processes and is a promising strategy for the direct production of near-monodisperse nanoparticles without recourse to further size selection.
