| Summary: | Single crystal perovskite materials with the intriguing properties of wide optical absorption range, low trap density, photoluminescence, and superior charge-transfer have emerged as a new class of revolutionary photovoltaic semiconductors promising for various applications. A technique to realize microstructures or microdevices on the surface of single crystal can facilitate the incorporation of these materials into optoelectronic applications. Here, we first reported the fabrication of 1-D mciropores, microlines, and 2-D micropatterns such as word “USTC,” number “2016” and “Olympic rings” on the surface of CH<sub>3</sub>NH<sub>3</sub>PbI<sub>3</sub> single crystal by femtosecond laser ablating. The effect of parameters such as exposure time, laser peak intensity, and scanning speed was quantitatively investigated to determine the parameter intervals capable of ensuring the required resolution. By fabricating periodic grating microstructures, the perovskite surfaces showed bright iridescence from dark blue to red due to the grating diffraction effect. Moreover, it is found that the fluorescence peak strength of processed area obviously grows with laser peak intensity and scanning speed, which is attributed to the increasing surface roughness caused by higher laser peak intensity and slower scanning speed. These works are beneficial for researchers to better understand the intrinsic property of single crystal perovskite and accelerate perovskite-based optoelectronics applications.
