Microfluidic Spinning: Microfluidic‐Spinning‐Directed Microreactors Toward Generation of Multiple Nanocrystals Loaded Anisotropic Fluorescent Microfibers (Adv. Funct. Mater. 47/2015)

A fiber microreactor is constructed based on a microfluidic spinning technique on page 7253 by S.Chen, A. J. Ryan, and co-workers, for the in-situ fabrication of nanocrystal-loaded anisotropic fluorescent hybrid microfibers. By designing co-axial-flow microdevices with different geometric features, multiple nanocrystal reactions in result in microfibers with delicate bead-shapes and Janus microstructures, capable of multiplexed optical signals. This work develops a facile platform for rapid fabrication of anisotropic fluorescent hybrid microfibers.
