Figure 1. Microfluidic platform for rapid synthesis of NPs.

Figure 1

(A) Schematic of system where NP precursors enter a multi-inlet mixer at different ratios producing a library of NPs upon self-assembly. (B) Mixer in operation showing complete mixing of streams at the end of the mixer. Scale bar = 200 μm, (C) Image of hydrodynamic flow-focusing where NPs self-assemble through nanoprecipitation. Scale bar = 20 μm. (D) Photograph of microfluidic devices for mixing of NP precursors and NP synthesis. (E) Image of representative NPs produced by the system. Scale bar = 50 nm.
