Microfluidic spinning technology (MST) has drawn much attention owing to its ideal platform for ordered fluorescent fibers, along with their large-scale manipulation, high efficiency, flexibility, and environment friendliness. Here, we employed the MST to fabricate a series of uniform fluorescent microfibers. By adjusting the microfluidic spinning parameters, the as-prepared microfibers of different diameters are successfully obtained. For more practice, these regular arranged fibers could be formed to versatile fluorescent codes by using various microfluidic chips. Also, these versatile fluorescent fibers could be further weaved into a white fluorescent film via continuous and cross-spinning process, which could be applied in a white light emitting diode (WLED) and a wearable device. Besides, we investigated the MST-directed microreactors to carry out green synthesis of CdSe quantum dots (QDs) fibers by the knot of Y-type microfluidic chip. The as-prepared CdSe QDs show nice optical property and are good candidate as phosphors in WLED. This strategy offers a facile and environment-friendly route to fluorescent hybrid microfibers and might open their potential application in optical devices, security, and fluorescent coding.
