abstract = "We present a multiphase microfluidic (MF) platform for on-chip preparation of high quality nanocrystals (NCs) using a novel multi-stage growth strategy. To reduce the axial dispersion along the flow direction, gas-liquid segmented flow was used as the flow format. We used a relatively short (0.65 m long) silicon-based MF device in the multi-pass NC processor to prepare large CdSe NCs (-5-6 nm) that would otherwise require a microchannel longer than 5 m in a singlepass microreactor. We further employed this platform to grow an inorganic shell around the already on-chip prepared NC cores to reduce their surface defects.",
