The rapidly evolving realm of solution-processed halide perovskite lasers is brought to light in this comprehensive book. These remarkable materials not only excel in photovoltaic performance but also stand out as exceptional optical gain media. Halide perovskites, the newest addition to the family of solution-processed optical gain media, join organics and traditional semiconductor colloidal quantum dots. Demonstrations of amplified spontaneous emission and lasing have been achieved in diverse halide perovskite configurations and nanostructures, spanning the visible and infrared wavelengths (400–1000 nm). This book offers a comprehensive exploration of perovskite lasing, commencing with foundational principles of lasers and their fundamental operational mechanisms. Unambiguous methods for identifying lasing light emission are presented, while the fundamental optoelectronic properties of perovskite materials are thoroughly discussed, with a special focus on their photophysics, utilizing cutting-edge ultrafast optical spectroscopy techniques. The viability of perovskites as gain media within suitable resonators is emphasized, along with the characterization methods for optical gain. The book concludes with a discussion on the remaining challenges that need to be addressed, as well as the promising future of this novel family of lasers.
