Understanding the formation chemistry of metal halide perovskites is key to optimizing processing conditions and realizing enhanced optoelectronic properties. Here, we reveal the structure of the crystalline precursor in the formation of methylammonium lead iodide (MAPbI<sub>3</sub>) from the single-step deposition of lead chloride and three equivalents of methylammonium iodide (PbCl<sub>2</sub> + 3MAI) (MA = CH<sub>3</sub>NH<sub>3</sub>). The as-spun film consists of crystalline MA<sub>2</sub>P ...[more]
