The liquid‐air interface offers a platform for the in‐plane growth of free‐standing materials. However, it is rarely used for inorganic perovskites and ultrathin non‐layered perovskites. Herein the liquid‐air interfacial synthesis of inorganic perovskite nanosheets (Cs3Bi2I9, Cs3Sb2I9) is achieved simply by drop‐casting the precursor solution with only the addition of iodine. The products are inaccessible without iodine addition. The thickness and lateral size of these nanosheets can be adjusted through the iodine concentration. The high volatility of the iodine spontaneously drives precursors that normally stay in the liquid to the liquid‐air interface. The iodine also repairs in situ iodine vacancies during perovskite growth, giving enhanced optical and optoelectronic properties. The liquid‐air interfacial growth of ultrathin perovskites provides multi‐degree‐of‐freedom for constructing perovskite‐based heterostructures and devices at atomic scale. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
