In article number 1800784, Sergey Makarov, Yuri Kivshar and co‐workers overview recent progress in the study of optical effects originating from nanostructured metal‐halide perovskites. They discuss various nanoantennas, nanowaveguides, metasurfaces, photonic crystals, and other types of nano‐ and micro‐structures with the halide perovskites. Finally, applications of the nanostructures for low‐threshold ultracompact lasers, improved photovoltaic energy harvesting, photodetection, and light‐emission in real devices are discussed.

Halide perovskites have emerged recently as promising materials for many applications in photovoltaics and optoelectronics. Recent studies of optical properties of halide perovskites suggest many novel opportunities for a design of advanced nanophotonic devices due to their low‐cost fabrication, relatively high values of the refractive index, existence of excitons at room temperatures, broadband bandgap tunability, high optical gain, and strong nonlinear response, as well as simplicity of their integration with other types of optical and electronic structures. This paper provides an overview of the recent progress in the study of optical effects originating from nanostructured perovskites, and it also oversees a range of potential applications of resonant nanophotonics with halide perovskites.
