Abstract:
In this paper, we propose a microfluidic device synthesizing Au nanorods based on photochemical reduction method. It is expected that we can achieve high uniformed Au nanorods in size and shape through the microfluidic device based synthesis.
In the microfluidic device, we applied passive mixers to achieve more effective chemical reactions for Au nanorods synthesis. We also demonstrate effective passive mixer designed by the finite element method (FEM) simulation study.
Keywords: Au nanorods synthesis, passive mixer, photochemical reduction method
