Amplifying Surface Energy Difference toward Anisotropic Growth of All‐Inorganic Perovskite Single‐Crystal Wires for Highly Sensitive Photodetector

Abstract It is a great challenge to directly grow super long all‐inorganic perovskite monocrystalline wires due to the weak surface energy difference among the low index facets. Here, a one‐pot solution process to grow the aspect ratio over 10 5 of monocrystalline CsPbBr 3 perovskite wires (PWs) and yield up to 70% is reported. A chemical potential dependent surface energy difference amplification strategy is proposed to regulate the surface energy of growing and grown surfaces accordingly to the anisotropic growth of CsPbBr 3 . The anisotropic growth of wires is derived from the regulation of anti‐solvent diffusion kinetic and the mass transfer kinetic control of the metal halide salts. This experiment demonstrates a 50 times amplification of surface energy difference.…
