Abstract:
A method for producing metal oxide nanocrystals, according to the embodiment of the present invention, includes: continuously flowing, into a continuous flow path, one or a plurality of nanocrystal precursor solutions each comprising one or more nanocrystal precursors dissolved in a non-polar solvent; directing a segmenting gas into the continuous flow path to create a segmented reaction flow; flowing the segmented reaction flow into a thermal processor; heating the segmented reaction flow in the thermal processor to create a product flow; and collecting metal oxide nanocrystals from the product flow.

Claim (Index 13):
A method for producing metal oxide nanocrystals, comprising\n flowing a first nanocrystal precursor solution into a micromixer, the first nanocrystal precursor solution comprising a first metallic salt nanocrystal precursor, a non-polar solvent, and a first coordinating ligand that is soluble in the non-polar solvent; flowing a second nanocrystal precursor solution into the micromixer, the second nanocrystal precursor solution comprising a second metallic salt nanocrystal precursor, the non-polar solvent, and the first coordinating ligand, wherein at least one of the first metallic salt nanocrystal precursor and the second metallic salt nanocrystal precursor includes one or more oxygen atoms, metering the first nanocrystal precursor solution and the second nanocrystal precursor solution at a predetermined ratio at the micromixer to create a mixed reaction solution; flowing the mixed reaction solution into a continuous flow path at a first flow rate; delivering a segmenting gas into the mixed reaction solution at a second flow rate to create a segmented reaction flow; flowing the segmented reaction flow into a thermal processor; heating the segmented reaction flow in the thermal processor to create a product flow; and collecting metal oxide nanocrystals from the product flow downstream of the thermal processor.
