Sumario:[EN] Perovskite materials have demonstrated great potential for a wide range of optoelectronic applications due to their exceptional electronic and optical properties. However, synthesising high-quality perovskite films remains a significant challenge, often hindered by batch-wise processes that suffer from limited control over reaction conditions, scalability and reproducibility. In this study, we present a novel approach for synthesising single-crystal perovskites with an optimised continuous-flow reactor. Our methodology utilises a 3D printed system that enables precise control over reactant concentrations, reaction times, and temperature profiles. The reaction chamber was designed and optimised by combining residence time distribution (RTD) studies and computational fluid dynamics (CFD) simulations. High-quality single-crystal perovskites with different formulations were obtained employing seeding and seedless conditions. The possibility of synthesising mixed halide single crystal perovskites with different compositions along its structure was demonstrated by simply shifting the feedstock solution during the crystallisation, demonstrating the versatility of this technology.
