Plasmonic nanolaser holds great potential in breaking down the diffraction limit of conventional optics to the deep sub‐wavelength regime and in ultrafast lasing dynamics. However, plasmonic laser devices are constrained in practical applications due to their high cost and high thresholds. All‐inorganic cesium lead halide perovskites are promising solutions for their excellent optical gain properties and high emission efficiency. In this work, high‐quality single‐crystalline CsPbBr 3 perovskite nanowires (NWs) are synthesized by chemical vapor deposition method. The plasmonic lasing is achieved from the CsPbBr 3 nanowire based plasmonic devices with lasing threshold down to ≈6.5 µJ cm −2 at room temperature. The highly polarized emission parallel to nanowire axis and polarization‐sensitive pump response confirm the plasmonic characteristic in these devices. Furthermore, time‐resolved photoluminescence study suggests that the radiative recombination lifetime of CsPbBr 3 NW is shortened by a factor of ≈6.14 due to Purcell effect. The lasing threshold of plasmonic device increases along with the nanowire length, indicating greater potential in small size and integration in plasmonic device than its photonic counterparts. The results not only provide a solution to fabricate low‐cost nanowire based plasmonic lasers, but also advocate the prospect of all‐inorganic perovskite nanowires as promising candidates in plasmonic‐based devices.
