## Abstract

Droplet-based patterning
techniques have demonstrated great effectiveness
in fabricating highly ordered arrays for applications of functional
materials in photonics, optoelectronics, and sensing technologies.
Droplets act as small units and microreactors, providing controlled
physical or chemical interactions, thereby enabling solution-processable
material deposition on various substrates in a high-throughput, large-scale
manner. Particularly for perovskite materials, droplet techniques
allow the bottom-up fabrication of perovskite arrays, fully exploiting
the cost reduction and efficiency improvement of solution-based processing
for perovskite devices. This article aims to review the principles
and recent progress in microdroplet array technology, explore its
potential in perovskite material patterning, and discuss the broad
applications of perovskite arrays in photonic and optoelectronic fields,
including light-emitting diodes, photodetectors, fluorescent anticounterfeiting,
and color conversion layers, to provide a comprehensive engineering
reference for readers.
