Abstract

Large-scale and controllable fabrication is an indispensable step for the industrialization and commercialization of halide perovskite nanocrystals, which are new-generation semiconductor materials for optoelectronic applications. Microfluidics, which provides continuous and precise synthesis, has been considered as a promising technique to fulfill this aspect. The research studies over the past decades have witnessed the advancement of microfluidics as a powerful tool in the fabrication of halide perovskite nanocrystals. In this Perspective, the state-of-the-art research based on microfluidics is introduced initially, including the synthesis of functional structures and materials, devices, as well as the interdisciplinary interactions between microfluidics and artificial intelligence and machine learning, etc. We then detail the issues and challenges in hindering progress in the above areas. Finally, we provide future directions and trends for the technology to achieve its full potential. This Perspective is expected to benefit the collective efforts between the field of nanomaterials and microfluidics in advanced manufacturing.
