3 I. Experimental Section Materials and Reagents. The chemical reagents used for preparing CH 3 NH 3 PbI 3-x Cl x films were methylammonium iodide (MAI, AR, Tokyo Chemical Industry Co., Ltd, Tokyo, Japan), PbCl 2 (AR, Aladdin Industrial Corporation, Shanghai, China), dimethylformamide (DMF, AR, Sinopharm Chemical Reagent Co., Ltd, China), and cyclohexane (CYH, AR, Sinopharm Chemical Reagent Co, Ltd, China). All the reagents were used as received without further purification. Fabrication of CH 3 NH 3 PbI 3-x Cl x films by conventional annealing (CA) method. The CH 3 NH 3 PbI 3-x Cl x film was prepared by the spin-coating method as illustrated in Figure 1. According to the previous reported result, 1,2 the molar ratio of MAI and PbCl 2 was set at 3:1 in our experiments. In a typical process, Methylammonium iodide(mai) and lead(ii) chloride (PbCl 2 ) were dissolved in dimethylformamide (DMF) with a molar ratio 3:1 at 65 ºC under stirring, and the solution was continuously stirred for 12 h for preparing the precursor solution. Prior to the preparation of CH 3 NH 3 PbI 3-x Cl x film, the glass substrate was thoroughly cleaned by following the cleaning process of silicon wafers. Afterwards, 100 µl of precursor solutions was spin-coated onto the glass substrate at 2200 rpm for 9 s, followed by another spin-coating process at 3500 rpm for 60 s. Then the CH 3 NH 3 PbI 3-x Cl x films were preheated at 80 ºC for 10 min, and further annealed at 100 ºC for 30 min. The resultant he CH 3 NH 3 PbI 3-x Cl x film was denoted as conventional annealing (CA) film. All these manipulation processes were performed in a glove-box filled with high purity (99.999%) nitrogen gas. Fabrication of CH 3 NH 3 PbI 3-x Cl x films by solvent-assisted thermal-pressure (ST) strategy. The preheated precursor films were firstly placed in a glass desiccator fulfilled with saturation cyclohexane vapor for 1 h in glove-box, thus the CH 3 NH 3 PbI 3-x Cl x vapor was uniformly S-3

4 adsorbed on the surface of precursor film (Figure 1). The ambient temperature was kept constant at 25~30 C during this process. Afterwards, a silicon wafer was covered on top of the film. After being tightly wrapped with Teflon membrane, the packed film and silicon wafer were transferred into a hot-press autoclave fulfilled with simethicone. During the experimental process, the simethicone serves as the uniform transmission medium for both the heat and pressure. Thirdly, a pressure of 200 MPa was applied on the autoclave, and the temperature was increased to 100 C at a rate of 2 C/min. After kept at 100 C and 200 MPa for 3 h, the autoclave was cooled to room temperature at a rate of C/min. Finally, when the pressure was released, the obtained CH 3 NH 3 PbI 3-x Cl x film was denoted as ST film. Measurement and Characterization. X-ray diffraction (XRD) patterns were recorded with a Bruker-AXS Microdiffractometer (D8ADVANCE) using Cu Kα X-ray radiation (λ=1.5406a). The morphologies of the samples were investigated on a field emission scanning electron microscope (Hitachi S-4800) with an accelerating voltage of 7.0 kv. The EDS was performed by an energy dispersive X-ray spectrometer equipped in the SEM machine. UV vis diffuse reflectance spectra were carried out with the wavelength range nm on a Shimadzu UV 2550 recording spectrophotometer equipped with an integrating sphere. The XPS was analyzed using a Thermo Fisher Scientific (ESCALAB 250) X-ray photoelectron spectrometer, and C1s (284.6 ev) was used to calibrate the peak positions of the elements. PL spectra were taken using a F-380 fluorescence spectrometer (Tianjin Gangdong Sci. & Tech. Development Co. Ltd. China). Time-resolved PL measurement was collected using a fluorescence lifetime measurement system (C , Hamamatsu Photonics, Japan). I-V and dynamic response curves of the CH 3 NH 3 PbI 3-x Cl x film photodetector were recorded on a Keithley 4200-SCS semiconductor parameters analyzer at S-4

5 room temperature in N 2 atmosphere. The time-dependent photoresponse signal was recorded by digital oscilloscope with a Keithley 4200-SCS semiconductor parameters analyzer in N 2 atmosphere. Before the characterization, the sealed sample chamber was under vacuum using a pump. Then residual air in the chamber was completely expelled with high purity N 2 to avoid the influence of H 2 O and O 2. The entire measuring procedure was completed in N 2 atmosphere. S-5
