Abstrakt: Mixed organolead halide perovskites (MOHPs), CH 3 NH 3 Pb(Br x I 1-x ) 3 , have been shown to undergo phase segregation into iodide-rich domains under illumination, which presents a major challenge to their development for photovoltaic and light-emitting devices. Recent work suggested that phase-segregated domains are localized at crystal boundaries, driving investigations into the role of edge structure and the growth of larger crystals with reduced surface area. Herein, a method for growing large (30×30×1 μm 3 ) monocrystalline MAPb(Br x I 1-x ) 3 single crystals is presented. The direct visualization of the growth of nanocluster-like I-rich domains throughout the entire crystal revealed that grain boundaries are not required for this transformation. Narrowband fluorescence imaging and time-resolved spectroscopy provided new insight into the nature of the phase-segregated domains and the collective impact on the optoelectronic properties.
