Metal halide perovskites have demonstrated tremendous promising electronic and optoelectronic properties that make them appealing in various device applications. Even though surprising improvement has been achieved during the past few years in polycrystalline perovskite-based devices, problems of their intrinsic high defects level, existence of grain boundaries, strong ion migration rates, and poor stabilities can heavily hinder the further development of polycrystalline perovskite electronics and their realistic applications. In contrast, their single-crystal counterpart is well-studied to have much better crystalline qualities, enhanced electrical properties, and excellent material stabilities, making them intriguing for reaching advanced device performance and realistic applications. However, the development of single-crystal perovskite electronic devices is still in its infancy; even the controlling over dimensions, scalabilities, morphologies, and compositions on single-crystal perovskites, are still challenging. Based on those motivations, this research aims to develop a general platform for realizing single-crystal metal halide perovskites electronics from the material growth to the thin-film device fabrication. The solution-based chemical epitaxy method, the lithography and etching approaches, and the transfer printing processes will be combined together to form this fabrication protocol, which is also compatible with the conventional semiconductor processes. In Chapter One, the basic properties of metal halide perovskites and the current problems presented in this field will be introduced and discussed. In Chapter Two, an epitaxial growth method of metal halide perovskite will be introduced. Our work presents the first controllable growth of single-crystal perovskites with different dimensions, morphologies, crystalline orientations, and compositions. In Chapter Three, a general fabrication process for metal halide single-crystal perovskite electronic integrations will be introduced. Our work presents a reliable approach to integrate metal halide single-crystal perovskite into electronics/microelectronics. In Chapter Four, a general strategy for fabricating flexible metal halide single-crystal perovskite electronics will be introduced. Our work presents the first realization of flexible single-crystal perovskite electronics/micro-electronics, which paves the way for realizing high-performance single-crystal metal halide perovskites wearable electronics.

As an emerging class of semiconductors, metal halide perovskites have demonstrated tremendous potential in various applications, including photovoltaic solar cells, light-emitting diodes, photodetection, and many other electronic devices. While most of these perovskite electronic devices have adopted polycrystalline perovskite thin films, problems of polycrystalline thin films like the high density of grain boundaries and defects, low stability can hinder the further performance enhancement of perovskite electronic devices. Comparing with their polycrystalline counterpart, single-crystal perovskites provide opportunities in solving such problems. Not only can they provide enhanced crystalline quality and excellent material stability, but also the possibility to alter the electronic properties of perovskites by lattice-mismatch-induced strain. Yet the development of single-crystal perovskite electronic devices is still in its infancy due to the low controllability over the growth of single-crystal perovskite nano/micro-structures and the incompatibility with the conventional semiconductor fabrication protocol. This research aims to develop a platform for growing high-quality single-crystal metal halide perovskite nano/micro-structures using controllable chemical homo/heteroepitaxial growth and fabricating high-performance single-crystal-perovskite-based electronic devices with the conventional semiconductor fabrication protocols. In Chapter One, the basic properties of metal halide perovskites and the current problems presented in the polycrystalline perovskite thin films will be introduced and discussed. In Chapter Two, controllable homoepitaxial growth of metal halide perovskite micro-arrays will be introduced. Our work presents the first controllable growth of large-area single-crystal perovskite microarrays with different sizes, morphologies, crystalline orientations, and patterned structures. In Chapter Three, controllable strain engineering of single-crystal metal halide perovskite thin films by heteroepitaxial-growth-induced lattice mismatch will be introduced. Our work presents the first controllable strain engineering in metal halide perovskite family. In Chapter Four, epitaxial stabilization induced by the chemically epitaxial strain growth will be introduced. Our strategy provides insights into structurally stabilizing the metastable metal halide perovskite family. Our understanding of the controllable epitaxial growth of metal halide perovskites paves the way for next-generation single-crystal metal halide perovskites electronic devices.

In recent years, metal halide perovskites have emerged as a rising star among semiconductor materials owing to their low cost, solution processability, and fascinating combination of material properties enabling a broad range of energy applications. Accompanied by the unprecedented success in the photovoltaic community, which has witnessed a certified power conversion efficiency of 23.7%, rapid advancement has also been achieved in the areas of light-emitting diodes, lasers, photodetectors, and solar-to-fuel energy conversion devices. Beyond the dominant format of polycrystalline perovskite thin films for solar cell applications, recent progress in metal halide perovskite crystals, ranging from nanocrystals to macroscopic single-crystals, has spurred a great deal of both scientific and industrial interest. Great research efforts have endeavored to develop new techniques for crystal growth and investigate the physical and chemical properties of the materials and explore their emerging applications. These exciting achievements call for a rationalization of the different forms of perovskite semiconductors beyond the widely used polycrystalline thin films. In the current Special Issue, "Metal Halide Perovskite Crystals: Growth Techniques, Properties and Emerging Applications", we aim to provide a forum for the discussion and presentation of recent advances in the fields of research related to metal halide perovskite crystals.

Organic perovskites have been growing in the field of organic electronics, and lately field-effect transistors with single-crystalline perovskites have received more attention, because they should have ideal field-effect mobility and new crystal growth techniques have made them easier to synthesize. This research works to improve the reproducibility of the single-crystal growth as well as pattern the perovskite single crystals for better device reproducibility. We were successful in patterning the crystal growth, using silicon chips patterned via photolithography, and a custom-made clamp to even the pressure applied to the substrates. However, improved contact between the substrates and better control over the pressure applied during the annealing process is needed to improve the quality of the patterned crystal growth.
