Abstract

Continuous room temperature synthesis of MAPbX3 perovskite nanocrystals was conducted using a facile flow reactor. The process exhibited outstanding reproducibility and the resulting nanocrystals showed a narrow size distribution, high stability and excellent emissive properties. Their photoluminescence can be tuned by changing the halide composition to cover the visible and near-infrared region.
