In one aspect, field effect transistors are described herein employing channels formed of hybrid halide perovskite materials. For example, a field effect transistor comprises a source terminal, a drain terminal and a gate terminal wherein a dielectric layer is positioned between the gate terminal and the source and drain terminals. A channel layer is in electrical communication with the source terminal and the drain terminal, the channel layer comprising an organic-inorganic perovskite in contact with a polymeric surface of the dielectric layer.
