In recent years, quantum dots (QDs) have attracted considerable research interests in the fields of biomedicine, energy, optoelectronics, and photocatalysis owing to their unmatched luminescent properties, excellent fluorescence stability, and relatively low cost. Microfluidic technology for the synthesis of QDs has shown unparalleled superiority as a result of its simple operation, fast heat and mass transfer, and precise control of reaction parameters. In this review, we will focus on the application of microfluidic platforms in the synthesis of single core and core-shell semiconductor QDs, perovskite QDs (PQDs) and carbon quantum dots (CQDs). We do expect that this review will provide new insights for the fabrication of various QDs and nanomaterials by microfluidic reaction platforms.
