DOI: 10.1002/adma. 201505002 limits of these materials. So far, several approaches of the single crystal growth of MAPbI 3 and MAPbBr 3 have been studied. Huang and co-workers reported a 10 mm sized growth of single crystal MAPbI 3 using a top-seeded solution method with a temperature gradient and obtained a carrier diffusion length over 175 µm.[22] Bakr and co-workers reported an antisolvent vaporassisted crystallization approach that enabled sizable crack-free MAPbX 3 (X= I or Br) single crystals with volumes exceeding 100 mm 3.[23] In addition, Tao and co-workers and Lin and coworkers used a cooling solution method to grow MAPbI 3 single crystals in HI solution.[24, 25] Later Bakr and co-workers and Liu et al. separately reported using an inverse temperature crystallization method to grow MAPbX 3 perovskite single crystals.[26, 27] Single crystal FAPbI 3 has hardly been reported. Kanatzidis and co-workers reported the fundamental study of 50 µm sized single crystal FAPbI 3, which is significantly smaller than the 10 mm size MAPbI 3.[28] Bakr and co-workers also grew FAPbX 3 single crystals using the similar methods as they grew MAPbX 3 single crystals.[29]Here, we demonstrate for the first time the growth of 5 mm sized single crystal FAPbI 3. The crystal was grown using a modified inverse temperature crystallization method. We used a cooling solution method to first grow the FAPbI 3 seed crystal, followed by placing the seed crystals in an inverse temperature crystallization precursor to obtain larger crystals. The thermal, optical, and electrical properties of single crystal FAPbI 3 were explored. In addition, we fabricated single crystal FAPbI 3 photodetectors and investigated photoconductivity and photoresponse. Low noise current and high switching speeds were confirmed.
