SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR MAKING QUANTUM DOTS

摘要

Embodiments of the present disclosure provide for methods of making quantum dots (QDs) (passivated or unpassivated) using a continuous flow process, systems for making QDs using a continuous flow process, and the like. In one or more embodiments, the QDs produced using embodiments of the present disclosure can be used in solar photovoltaic cells, bio-imaging, IR emitters, or LEDs.

主权项

1. A method of forming a quantum dot (QD), comprising:
a) mixing a solution A with a solution B to form solution C; b) flowing solution C into a nucleating coil to produce QD seeds by nucleating solution C at a first temperature; and c) flowing solution C including the QD seeds into a growth coil to grow the QDs at a second temperature, wherein b) and c) are independently performed, and wherein the first temperature and the second temperature are different.
