In this article, we review recent developments in the microfluidic synthesis of quantum dots, and discuss some of the advantages and challenges of preparing nanocrystalline materials in microscale fluidic channels. The relative merits of continuous-flow and segmented-flow reactors are considered, together with a number of outstanding issues that must be successfully addressed for microfluidics to become a truly viable technology for quantum dot synthesis.
