Continuous sugar coating: A process has been developed for the mild, continuous-flow microreactor synthesis of carbohydrate-coated CdSe/ZnS and CdTe/ZnS quantum dots of narrow size distribution (see scheme; NP: nanoparticle, QD: quantum dot, Prec.: precursor). The products can be prepared efficiently and reproducibly in larger amounts. The surface of the QDs can be modified with biologically relevant molecules.
