contents Lead-halide perovskites were demonstrated to exhibit some of the largest known optical nonlinearities, yet their potential for frequency conversion remains largely untapped. Here we demonstrate ultra-broadband four-wave mixing of near- and mid-infrared femtosecond pulses in thick single-crystal LHPs, generating bright, coherent, and highly collimated emission across an exceptionally wide continuous tuning range without phase-matching engineering, angular alignment, or dispersion optimization. Time resolved measurements reveal that the emission originates near the crystal surfaces, where phase-matching constraints are relaxed, while the unusually large intrinsic $χ^{(3)}$ response preserves efficient and directional frequency conversion despite the strongly localized interaction volume. These results position LHPs as a powerful bulk platform for ultra-broadband nonlinear photonics, opening a pathway toward compact, alignment-free architectures for ultrafast frequency conversion.
