Solution-processed thin films of lead halide perovskites show exceptional properties, making them interesting candidates for a range of optoelectronic applications such as solar cells and light-emitting diodes. The thickness and crystallite-size in these films is typically in the sub-micron range, resulting in an abundance of grain-boundaries. Here we will describe techniques for growing thin single-crystalline lead perovskite crystallites with edge lengths of several tens of microns and thicknesses of around 1 micron, starting from single-source 1D lead halide perovskite precursors. In a first study we used platelet-shaped MAPbBr3 single-crystals to fabricate active electro-optical modulators (AEOM) exhibiting > 98% light transmission intensity modulation. In a second study we successfully grew mixed halide MAPbBr(3-x)Ix single crystals to study photoinduced halide demixing in crystalline materials, using a range of different spectroscopic techniques such as narrowband fluorescence imaging and time-resolved spectroscopy. In the final section of this talk we will report on the recent progress in the development of back-contact perovskite solar cells, including the use of mask-free lithography techniques and novel honey-comb-like back-contact architectures.
