Size Control and Photophysical Properties of Quantum Dots Prepared via a Novel Tunable Hydrothermal Route

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used a synthetic microwave reactor for dielectric heating that provides both kinetic control, and in situ monitoring of temperature and pressure, and showed the ability to fabricate highly emissive CdSe/CdS/ZnS qdots under fine-tuned hydrothermal conditions.

The use of a microwave oven in the chemical transformation of long chain fatty acid esters

TL;DR: The use of microwaves not only decreased the reaction time considerably but also allowed smaller volumes of solvent and lower quantities of reagents to be used as compared with the conventional methodologies reported.

Microwave synthesis, characterization, and electrochemical properties of α-Fe2O3 nanoparticles

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors synthesized α-Fe2O3 nanoparticles with an extremely narrow distribution by microwave heating and showed that most primary particles have ellipsoid shapes, and the average diameter of the primary particles was less than 10nm.
