Despite their success in the field, their precision synthesis and fundamental mechanistic studies remain a challenge. The vast colloidal synthesis and processing parameters of LHP NCs in combination with the batch-to-batch and lab-to-lab variation problems further complicate their progress. In response, a self-driving fluidic micro-processor is presented for accelerated navigation through the complex synthesis and processing parameter space of NCs with multistage chemistries. The capability of the developed autonomous experimentation strategy is demonstrated for a time-, material-, and labor-efficient search through the sequential halide exchange and cation doping reactions of LHP NCs. Next, a machine learning model of the modular fluidic micro-processors is autonomously built for accelerated fundamental studies of the in-flow metal cation doping of LHP NCs. The surrogate model of the sequential halide exchange and cation doping reactions of LHP NCs is then utilized for five closed-loop synthesis campaigns with different target NC doping levels. The precise and intelligent NC synthesis and processing strategy, presented herein, can be further applied toward the autonomous discovery and development of novel impurity-doped NCs with applications in next-generation energy technologies.}, number={5}, journal={ADVANCED INTELLIGENT SYSTEMS}, publisher={Wiley}, author={Bateni, Fazel and Epps, Robert W. and Antami, Kameel and Dargis, Rokas and Bennett, Jeffery A. and Reyes, Kristofer G. and Abolhasani, Milad}, year={2022}, month={Mar} }

In this work, for the first time, in-flow HI synthesis of cesium lead iodide (CsPbI3) NCs is introduced and a comprehensive understanding of the interdependent competing reaction parameters controlling the NC morphology (nanocube vs nanoplatelet) and properties is provided. Utilizing the developed flow synthesis strategy, a change in the CsPbI3 NC formation mechanism at temperatures higher than 150 °C, resulting in different CsPbI3 morphologies is revealed. Through comparison of the flow- versus flask-based synthesis, deficiencies of batch reactors in reproducible and scalable synthesis of CsPbI3 NCs with fast formation kinetics are demonstrated. The developed modular flow chemistry route provides a new frontier for high-temperature studies of solution-processed LHP NCs and enables their consistent and reliable continuous nanomanufacturing for next-generation energy technologies.}, journal={ADVANCED FUNCTIONAL MATERIALS}, publisher={Wiley}, author={Antami, Kameel and Bateni, Fazel and Ramezani, Mahdi and Hauke, Cory E. and Castellano, Felix N. and Abolhasani, Milad}, year={2021}, month={Nov} }
