    The crystal growth process significantly influences the properties of organic–inorganic halide perovskite films along with the performance of solar cell devices. In this paper, we adopted the microwave irradiation to treat perovskite films through a one-step deposition method for several minutes at a fixed output power. It is found that the specific microwave irradiation process can evaporate the solvent directly and heat perovskite film quickly. In comparison with the conventional thermal annealing process, a microwave irradiation process assisted fast and controllable crystallization of perovskite films with less energy-loss and time-consumption and therefore resulted in the enhancement in the photovoltaic performance of the corresponding solar cells.
