Microfluidic synthesis of nanomaterials

Small. 2008 Jun;4(6):698-711. doi: 10.1002/smll.200701029.

Abstract

An overview of the current information and analyses on the microfluidic synthesis of different types of nanomaterial, including metallic and silica nanoparticles and quantum dots, is presented. Control of particle size, size distribution, and crystal structure of nanomaterials are examined in terms of the special features of microfluidic reactors.
