We demonstrate a facile synthetic approach for preparing mixed halide perovskite (CH3NH3)Pb(Br1-xClx)3 single crystals by the solvothermal growth of stoichiometric PbBr2 and [(1 - y)CH3NH3Br + yCH3NH3Cl] DMF precursor solutions. The band gap of (CH3NH3)Pb(Br1-xClx)3 single crystals increased and the unit cell dimensions decreased with an increase in Cl content x, consistent with previous theoretical predictions. Interestingly, the Cl/Br ratio in the (CH3NH3)Pb(Br1-xClx)3 single crystals is larger than that of the precursor solution, suggesting an unusual crystal growth mechanism.
