Abstract
Hybrid metal halide materials with charming phase transition behaviors have attracted considerable attention. In former works, much attention has been focused on the phase transition triggered by the order-disorder or displacement motions of the organic component. However, manipulating the variation of the inorganic component to achieve the phase transition has rarely been reported. Herein, two novel organic-inorganic hybrid materials, [THPM]n[AgX2]n (THPM = 3,4,5,6-tetrahydropyrimidin-1-ium, X = I for 1 and Br for 2) with the [AgX2]nn- anionic chain structure, were synthesized. At 293 K, the [AgX2]nn- chains in 1 were constructed by the tetramer units of Ag atoms, while that in 2 was assembled by the dimer structure. Upon heating to 355 K, owing to the variation of the metallophilic interaction between adjacent Ag atoms, a unique transformation process from tetramer to dimer in [AgI2]nn- chains of 1 can be detected and endow 1 with a giant anisotropic thermal expansion with linear strain of ∼7% and shear strain of ∼20%, which can be used as a mechanical actuator for switching. Alternatively, for 2, no phase transition process can be observed upon the temperature variation. This work provides an effective approach to design phase transition materials triggered by the inorganic part.

Abstract
Two-dimensional layered organic-inorganic halide perovskites have successfully spread to diverse optoelectronic applications. Nevertheless, there remain gaps in our understanding of the interactions between organic and inorganic sublattices that form the foundation of their remarkable properties. Here, we examine these interactions using pump-probe spectroscopy and ab initio molecular dynamics simulations. Unlike off-resonant pumping, resonant excitation of the organic sublattice alters both the electronic and lattice degrees of freedom within the inorganic sublattice, indicating the existence of electronic coupling. Theoretical simulations verify that the reduced bandgap is likely due to the enhanced distortion index of the inorganic octahedra. Further evidence of the mechanical coupling between these two sublattices is revealed through the slow heat transfer process, where the resultant lattice tensile strain launches coherent longitudinal acoustic phonons. Our findings explicate the intimate electronic and mechanical couplings between the organic and inorganic sublattices, crucial for tailoring the optoelectronic properties of two-dimensional halide perovskites.

Abstract
Tin-based two-dimensional (2D) perovskites are emerging as lead-free alternatives in halide perovskite materials, yet their exciton dynamics and transport remain less understood due to defect scattering. Addressing this, we employed temperature-dependent transient photoluminescence (PL) microscopy to investigate intrinsic exciton transport in three structurally analogous Sn- and Pb-based 2D perovskites. Employing conjugated ligands, we synthesized high-quality crystals with enhanced phase stability at various temperatures. Our results revealed phonon-limited exciton transport in Sn perovskites, with diffusion constants increasing from 0.2 cm2 s-1 at room temperature to 0.6 cm2 s-1 at 40 K, and a narrowing PL line width. Notably, Sn-based perovskites exhibited greater exciton mobility than their Pb-based equivalents, which is attributed to lighter effective masses. Thermally activated optical phonon scattering was observed in Sn-based compounds but was absent in Pb-based materials. These findings, supported by molecular dynamics simulations, demonstrate that the phonon scattering mechanism in Sn-based halide perovskites can be distinct from their Pb counterparts.

Abstract
Dilute magnetic semiconductors (DMSs) have attracted much attention because of their potential use in spintronic devices. Here, we demonstrate the observation of robust ferromagnetism in a solution-processable halide perovskite semiconductor with dilute magnetic ions. By codoping of magnetic (Fe2+) and aliovalent (Bi3+) metal ions into CH3NH3PbCl3 (MAPbCl3) perovskite, ferromagnetism with well-saturated magnetic hysteresis loops and a maximum coercivity field of 1280 Oe was observed below 12 K. The ferromagnetic resonance measurements revealed that the incorporation of aliovalent ions modulates the carrier concentration and plays an essential role in realizing the ferromagnetism in dilute magnetic halide perovskites. Magnetic ions are proposed to interact through itinerant charge carriers to achieve ferromagnetic coupling. Our work provides a new avenue for the development of solution-processable magnetic semiconductors.

Abstract
Halide perovskite nanocrystals (HPNCs) are currently among the most intensely investigated group of materials. Structurally related to the bulk halide perovskites (HPs), HPNCs are nanostructures with distinct chemical, optical, and electronic properties and significant practical potential. One of the keys to the effective exploitation of the HPNCs in advanced technologies is the development of controllable, reproducible, and scalable methods for preparation of materials with desired compositions, phases, and shapes and low defect content. Another important condition is a quantitative understanding of factors affecting the chemical stability and the optical and electronic properties of HPNCs. Here we review important recent developments in these areas. Following a brief historical prospective, we provide an overview of known chemical methods for preparation of HPNCs and approaches used to control their composition, phase, size, and shape. We then review studies of the relationship between the chemical composition and optical properties of HPNCs, degradation mechanisms, and effects of charge injection. Finally, we provide a short summary and an outlook. The aim of this review is not to provide a comprehensive summary of all relevant literature but rather a selection of highlights, which, in the subjective view of the authors, provide the most significant recent observations and relevant analyses.

Abstract
The Nb2PdxS5 (x ≈ 0.74) superconductor with a Tc of 6.5 K is reduced by the intercalation of lithium in ammonia solution or electrochemically to produce an intercalated phase with expanded lattice parameters. The structure expands by 2% in volume and maintains the C2/m symmetry and rigidity due to the PdS4 units linking the layers. Experimental and computational analysis of the chemically synthesized bulk sample shows that Li occupies triangular prismatic sites between the layers with an occupancy of 0.33(4). This level of intercalation suppresses the superconductivity, with the injection of electrons into the metallic system observed to also reduce the Pauli paramagnetism by ∼40% as the bands are filled to a Fermi level with a lower density of states than in the host material. Deintercalation using iodine partially restores the superconductivity, albeit at a lower Tc of ∼5.5 K and with a smaller volume fraction than in fresh Nb2PdxS5. Electrochemical intercalation reproduces the chemical intercalation product at low Li content (<0.4) and also enables greater reduction, but at higher Li contents (≥0.4) accessed by this route, phase separation occurs with the indication that Li occupies another site.

Abstract
Light emitting diodes (LEDs) have become part of numerous electrical and electronic systems such as lighting, displays, status indicator lamps and wearable electronics. Owing to their excellent optoelectronic properties and deposition via simple solution process, metal halide perovskites possess unique potential for developing halide perovskite-based LEDs (PeLEDs) with superior photoluminescence efficiencies leading to external quantum efficiencies beyond 20% for PeLEDS. However, the limited durability, high operative voltages, and challenges of scale-up are persisting barriers in achieving required technology readiness levels. To build up the existing knowledge and raise the device performance this review provides a state-of-the-art study on the properties, film and device fabrication, efficiency, and stability of PeLEDs. In terms of commercialization, PeLEDs need to overcome materials and device challenges including stability, ion migration, phase segregation, and joule heating, which are discussed in this review. We hope, discussions about the strategies to overcome the stability issues and enhancement the materials intrinsic properties towards development more stable and efficient optoelectronic devices can pave the way for scalability and cost-effective production of PeLEDs.

Abstract
Hybrid lead-halide perovskites have been studied extensively for their promising optoelectronic properties and prospective applications, including photovoltaics, solid-state lighting, and radiation detection. Research into these materials has also been aided by the simple and low-temperature synthetic conditions involved in solution-state deposition/crystallization or melt-processing techniques. However, concern over lead toxicity has plagued the field since its infancy. One of the most promising routes to mitigating toxicity in hybrid perovskite materials is substituting isoelectronic Bi(III) for Pb(II). Various methods have been developed to allow pnictide-based systems to capture properties of the Pb(II) analogues, but the ability to melt extended hybrid pnictide-halide materials has not been investigated. In this work, we prepare a series of one-dimensional antimony- and bismuth-iodide hybrid materials employing tetramethylpiperazinium (TMPZ)-related cations. We observe, for the first time, the ability to melt extended hybrid pnictide-halide materials for both the Sb(III) and Bi(III) systems. Additionally, we find that Sb(III) analogues melt at lower temperatures and attribute this observation to structural changes induced by the increased stereochemical activity of the Sb(III) lone pair coupled with the reduction in effective dimensionality due to steric interactions with the organic cations. Finally, we demonstrate the ability to melt process phase pure thin films of (S-MeTMPZ)SbI5.

Abstract
Three-dimensional (3D) organic-inorganic lead halide perovskites have emerged in the past few years as a promising material for low-cost, high-efficiency optoelectronic devices. Spurred by this recent interest, several subclasses of halide perovskites such as two-dimensional (2D) halide perovskites have begun to play a significant role in advancing the fundamental understanding of the structural, chemical, and physical properties of halide perovskites, which are technologically relevant. While the chemistry of these 2D materials is similar to that of the 3D halide perovskites, their layered structure with a hybrid organic-inorganic interface induces new emergent properties that can significantly or sometimes subtly be important. Synergistic properties can be realized in systems that combine different materials exhibiting different dimensionalities by exploiting their intrinsic compatibility. In many cases, the weaknesses of each material can be alleviated in heteroarchitectures. For example, 3D-2D halide perovskites can demonstrate novel behavior that neither material would be capable of separately. This review describes how the structural differences between 3D halide perovskites and 2D halide perovskites give rise to their disparate materials properties, discusses strategies for realizing mixed-dimensional systems of various architectures through solution-processing techniques, and presents a comprehensive outlook for the use of 3D-2D systems in solar cells. Finally, we investigate applications of 3D-2D systems beyond photovoltaics and offer our perspective on mixed-dimensional perovskite systems as semiconductor materials with unrivaled tunability, efficiency, and technologically relevant durability.

Abstract
A symmetry mode analysis yields 47 symmetrically distinct patterns of octahedral tilting in hybrid organic-inorganic layered perovskites that adopt the n = 1 Ruddlesden-Popper (RP) structure. The crystal structures of compounds belonging to this family are compared with the predictions of the symmetry analysis. Approximately 88% of the 140 unique structures have symmetries that agree with those expected based on octahedral tilting alone, while the remaining compounds have additional structural features that further lower the symmetry, such as asymmetric packing of bulky organic cations, distortions of metal-centered octahedra or a shift of the inorganic layers that deviates from the a/2 + b/2 shift associated with the RP structure. The structures of real compounds are heterogeneously distributed amongst the various tilt systems, with only 9 of the 47 tilt systems represented. No examples of in-phase ψ-tilts about the a and/or b axes of the undistorted parent structure were found, while at the other extreme ∼66% of the known structures possess a combination of out-of-phase φ-tilts about the a and/or b axes and θ-tilts (rotations) about the c axis. The latter combination leads to favorable hydrogen bonding interactions that accommodate the chemically inequivalent halide ions within the inorganic layers. In some compounds, primarily those that contain either Pb2+ or Sn2+, favorable hydrogen bonding interactions can also be achieved by distortions of the octahedra in combination with θ-tilts.

Abstract
Halide perovskites (HPs) are potential game-changing materials for a broad spectrum of optoelectronic applications ranging from photovoltaics, light-emitting devices, lasers to radiation detectors, ferroelectrics, thermoelectrics, etc. Underpinning this spectacular expansion is their fascinating photophysics involving a complex interplay of carrier, lattice, and quasi-particle interactions spanning several temporal orders that give rise to their remarkable optical and electronic properties. Herein, we critically examine and distill their dynamical behavior, collective interactions, and underlying mechanisms in conjunction with the experimental approaches. This review aims to provide a unified photophysical picture fundamental to understanding the outstanding light-harvesting and light-emitting properties of HPs. The hotbed of carrier and quasi-particle interactions uncovered in HPs underscores the critical role of ultrafast spectroscopy and fundamental photophysics studies in advancing perovskite optoelectronics.

Abstract
Two-dimensional (2D) halide perovskites offer a unique platform for investigating the ground state of materials possessing significant anharmonicity. In contrast to three-dimensional perovskites, their 2D counterparts offer substantially fewer degrees of freedom, resulting in multiple well-defined crystal structures. In this work, we thoroughly investigate the anharmonic ground state of the benchmark (PEA)2PbI4 compound, using complementary information from low-temperature X-ray diffraction (XRD) and photoluminescence spectroscopy, supported by density functional theory calculations. We extrapolate four crystallographic configurations from low-temperature XRD. These configurations imply that the ground state has an intrinsic disorder stemming from two coexisting chiral sublattices, each with a bioriented organic spacer molecule. We further show evidence that these chiral structures form unevenly populated ground states, portraying uneven anharmonicity, where the state population may be tuned by surface effects. Our results uncover a disordered ground state that may induce intrinsic grain boundaries, which cannot be ignored in practical applications.

Abstract
We demonstrate control over the phase transition temperature of Ruddlesden-Popper two-dimensional (2D) perovskites by alloying alkyl organic cations of varying lengths. By blending hexylammonium with pentylammonium or heptylammonium cations in different ratios, we continuously tune the phase transition temperature of 2D perovskites from approximately 40 to -80 °C in both crystalline powders and thin films. Correlating temperature-dependent grazing incidence wide-angle X-ray scattering and photoluminescence spectroscopy, we also demonstrate that the phase transition in the organic layer couples to the inorganic lattice, impacting PL intensity and wavelength. We take advantage of changes in PL intensity to image the dynamics of this phase transition and show asymmetric phase growth at the microscale. Our findings provide the necessary design principles to precisely control phase transitions in 2D perovskites for applications such as solid-solid phase change materials and barocaloric cooling.

Abstract
So far, single-junction flexible PSCs have been lacking in efficiency compared to rigid PSCs. Recently, > 23% have been reported. We therefore focus on understanding the differences between rigid and flexible substrates. One often neglected parameter is the different surface roughness which directly affects the perovskite film formation. Therefore, we adjust the layer thickness of SnO2 and the perovskite layers. Furthermore, we introduce a PMMA layer between the perovskite and the hole transporting material (HTM), spiro-MeOTAD, to mitigate shunting pathways. In addition, the multication perovskite Rb0.02Cs0.05FA0.77MA0.16Pb(I0.83Br0.17)3 is employed, resulting in stabilized performances of 16% for a flexible ITO substrate and 19% on a rigid ITO substrate.

Abstract
A series of new ionic fullerene derivatives (C60-RNH3-X; X = Cl, Br, or I) were designed especially for using as additives for tin perosvkite (TPsk, with chemical formula of FA0.98EDA0.01SnI3) to form TPsk-C60-RNH3-X bulk heterojunction (BHJ) films. Inverted tin-perovskite solar cells (TPSCs) based on BHJ TPsk-C60-RNH3-Br absorber achieved the highest power conversion efficiency up to 11.74% with very high FF of 73%, without current hysteresis and stable in a glovebox. The designed spherical ionic fullerene halide additive, sitting in the grain boundaries of the TPsk film, can not only improve the quality of the TPsk film and change the valence band energy to match better with the PEDOT:PSS hole transporter but also be a carrier transporting connector between tin-perovskite grains, the defects/traps passivation/healing agent by interacting with Sn2+ ions and filling the halogen vacancies. The functions of the ionic fullerene halide additive were revealed with XRD patterns, SEM images, element mapping, UPS spectra, infrared spectra, AFM, and SCLC data. Being able to passivate newly generated defects during device operation or sitting on the shelf is an important step to improve the long-term stability of TPSCs. If a passivation agent can move dynamically during cell operation or storage to heal the defects of perovskite, the instability problem of TPSCs can be alleviated. The spherical ionic fullerene halide could be one of the ideal passivation agents satisfying this purpose.

Abstract
In just a few years, the efficiency of perovskite-based solar cells (PSCs) has risen to 25.8%, making them competitive with current commercial technology. Due to the inherent advantage of perovskite thin films that can be fabricated using simple solution techniques at low temperatures, PSCs are regarded as one of the most important low-cost and mass-production prospects. The lack of stability, on the other hand, is one of the major barriers to PSC commercialization. The goal of this review is to highlight the most important aspects of recent improvements in PSCs, such as structural modification and fabrication procedures, which have resulted in increased device stability. The role of different types of hole transport layers (HTL) and the evolution of inorganic HTL including their fabrication techniques have been reviewed in detail in this review. We eloquently emphasized the variables that are critical for the successful commercialization of perovskite devices in the final section. To enhance perovskite solar cell commercialization, we also aimed to obtain insight into the operational stability of PSCs, as well as practical information on how to increase their stability through rational materials and device fabrication.

Abstract
Perovskite solar cells (PSCs) have captured the attention of the global energy research community in recent years by showing an exponential augmentation in their performance and stability. The supremacy of the light-harvesting efficiency and wider band gap of perovskite sensitizers have led to these devices being compared with the most outstanding rival silicon-based solar cells. Nevertheless, there are some issues such as their poor lifetime stability, considerable J–V hysteresis, and the toxicity of the conventional constituent materials which restrict their prevalence in the marketplace. The poor stability of PSCs with regard to humidity, UV radiation, oxygen and heat especially limits their industrial application. This review focuses on the in-depth studies of different direct and indirect parameters of PSC device instability. The mechanism for device degradation for several parameters and the complementary materials showing promising results are systematically analyzed. The main objective of this work is to review the effectual strategies of enhancing the stability of PSCs. Several important factors such as material engineering, novel device structure design, hole-transporting materials (HTMs), electron-transporting materials (ETMs), electrode materials preparation, and encapsulation methods that need to be taken care of in order to improve the stability of PSCs are discussed extensively. Conclusively, this review discusses some opportunities for the commercialization of PSCs with high efficiency and stability.

Abstract
Quasi 2D perovskite solar cells (PSCs) are promising light absorbers that overcome the inherent instabilities of 3D perovskites. High-performance and stable 2D PSCs require careful control over the crystallographic orientation and phase distribution. This study introduces a simple and universal bifacial stamping method to obtain highly oriented perovskite crystals with a reverse-graded structure, where the low-n-value 2D perovskite phases are located mainly at the film surfaces. Bifacial stamping of 3D perovskite films atop the 2D films enables incorporation of 2D spacer cations into the 3D film surfaces, forming reverse-graded quasi-2D perovskite films. During stamping, suppressed evaporation of the precursor solvent induces heterogeneous nucleation from the contact interface between the 2D and 3D films, resulting in well-crystallized perovskite films having out-of-plane alignments with respect to the substrate. Thus, a highly oriented and reverse-graded quasi-2D perovskite with an average n value of 18 is obtained with power conversion efficiency exceeding 17% and high open-circuit voltage of 1.11 V for iso-butylammonium (iso-BA)-based (iso-BA2 MAn -1 Pbn I3 n +1 ) PSCs. The unencapsulated device retains 92% of its initial efficiency after aging at 40 ± 5% relative humidity for 1200 h. This work provides a new strategy for fabricating highly oriented and phase-controlled quasi-2D PSCs.

Abstract
The relationship between the structural asymmetry and optoelectronic properties of functional materials is an active area of research. The movement of charges through an oriented chiral medium depends on the spin configuration of the charges, and such systems can be used to control spin populations without magnetic components - termed the chiral-induced spin selectivity (CISS) effect. CISS has mainly been studied in chiral organic molecules and their assemblies. Semiconductors are non-magnetic extended systems that allow for the control of charge transport, as well as the absorption and emission of light. Therefore, introducing chirality into semiconductors would enable control over charge, spin and light without magnetic components. Chiral metal halide semiconductors (MHSs) are hybrid organic-inorganic materials that combine the properties of small chiral organic molecules with those of extended inorganic semiconductors. Reports of CISS in chiral MHSs have resulted in breakthroughs in our understanding of CISS and in the realization of spin-dependent optoelectronic properties. This Review examines the fundamentals and applications of CISS in chiral MHSs. The structural diversity and key structure-property relationships, such as chiral transfer from the organic to the inorganic components, are summarized. With a focus on the underlying chemistry and physics, the control of spin, light and charge in these semiconductors is explored.

Abstract
The outstanding chemical and physical properties of 2D materials, together with their atomically thin nature, make them ideal candidates for metaphotonic device integration and construction, which requires deep subwavelength light-matter interaction to achieve optical functionalities beyond conventional optical phenomena observed in naturally available materials. In addition to their intrinsic properties, the possibility to further manipulate the properties of 2D materials via chemical or physical engineering dramatically enhances their capability, evoking new science on light-matter interaction, leading to leaped performance of existing functional devices and giving birth to new metaphotonic devices that were unattainable previously. Comprehensive understanding of the intrinsic properties of 2D materials, approaches and capabilities for chemical and physical engineering methods, the resulting property modifications and novel functionalities, and applications of metaphotonic devices are provided in this review. Through reviewing the detailed progress in each aspect and the state-of-the-art achievement, insightful analyses of the outstanding challenges and future directions are elucidated in this cross-disciplinary comprehensive review with the aim to provide an overall development picture in the field of 2D material metaphotonics and promote rapid progress in this fast emerging and prosperous field.

Abstract
Interlayer organic cations in quasi-two-dimensional halide perovskites are a versatile tuning vehicle for the optoelectronic properties of these complex systems, but chemical intuition for this design route is yet to be established. Here, we use density functional theory, the GW approximation, and the Bethe-Salpeter equation approach to understand the contribution of the organic cation to the quasiparticle band gap and exciton binding energy of layered perovskites. We show that organic cations in quasi-two-dimensional perovskites contribute significantly to the dielectric screening in these systems, countering quantum confinement effects on the quasiparticle band gap and the exciton binding energy. Using a simple electrostatics model inspired by parallel-plate capacitors, we decouple the organic cation and inorganic layer contributions to the effective dielectric constants and show that dielectric properties of layered perovskites are broadly tunable via the interlayer cation, providing a direct means of tuning photophysical properties for a variety of applications.

Abstract
Pressure-induced thermal changes in solids—barocaloric effects—can be used to drive cooling cycles that offer a promising alternative to traditional vapor-compression technologies. Efficient barocaloric cooling requires materials that undergo reversible phase transitions with large entropy changes, high sensitivity to hydrostatic pressure, and minimal hysteresis, the combination of which has been challenging to achieve in existing barocaloric materials. Here, we report a new mechanism for achieving colossal barocaloric effects that leverages the large volume and conformational entropy changes of hydrocarbon order–disorder transitions within the organic bilayers of select two-dimensional metal–halide perovskites. Significantly, we show how the confined nature of these order–disorder phase transitions and the synthetic tunability of layered perovskites can be leveraged to reduce phase transition hysteresis through careful control over the inorganic–organic interface. The combination of ultralow hysteresis and high pressure sensitivity leads to colossal reversible isothermal entropy changes (>200 J kg−1 K−1) at record-low pressures (<300 bar). Barocaloric materials, undergoing thermal changes in response to applied pressure, may provide energy efficient and zero-emission solid-state cooling. Here the authors report a mechanism for achieving large reversible barocaloric effects near ambient temperature, leveraging volume and conformational entropy changes within the organic bilayers of two-dimensional metal–halide perovskites.

Abstract
We investigate the last members of a series of inorganic-organic hybrid materials of the general formula [(CnH2n+1NH3)2PbI4] (abbreviated CnPbI). The self-assembly of the inorganic and organic components has a perovskite-like structure as the two-dimensional (2D) inorganic layers have four corners of the lead(II) iodide octahedra being shared out. The inorganic layers are separated by bilayers of alkylammonium chains, in this case with n = 11, 13, and 15. These materials exhibit complex phase behavior in the temperature range from -20 to + 81 °C. Differential scanning calorimetry and single-crystal X-ray diffraction enabled the phase transition temperatures and enthalpies to be determined and the structural changes that occur at the phase transition temperature. The number of phases is dependent on the chain length: for n = 11 and 15, there are three phases, and for n = 13, there are four phases. Regardless of the number of phases, all three compounds have identical lowest-temperature phases (all stable below room temperature), which have inorganic layers that are staggered, alkylammonium chains that are planar and nonplanar, and yellow crystals. The room-temperature phases for the three compounds differ, but all are orange. C11PbI has staggered layers, and C13PbI and C15PbI have identical room-temperature phases with eclipsed layers. C13PbI and C15PbI also show an additional phase between the lowest-temperature and room-temperature phases.

Abstract
Two-dimensional organic-inorganic hybrid perovskites (2DHPs) consist of alternating anionic metal-halide and cationic organic layers. They have widely tunable structural and optical properties. We review the role of the organic cation in defining the structural and optical properties of 2DHPs through example lead iodide 2DHPs. Even though excitons reside in the metal-halide layers, the organic and inorganic frameworks cannot be separated-they must be considered as a single unit to fully understand the photophysics of 2DHPs. We correlate cation-induced distortion and disorder in the inorganic lattice with the resulting optical properties. We also discuss the role of the cation in creating and altering the discrete excitonic structure that appears at cryogenic temperatures in some 2DHPs, including the cation-dependent presence of hot-exciton photoluminescence. We conclude our review with an outlook for 2DHPs, highlighting existing gaps in fundamental knowledge as well as potential future applications. Expected final online publication date for the Annual Review of Physical Chemistry, Volume 73 is April 2022. Please see http://www.annualreviews.org/page/journal/pubdates for revised estimates.

Abstract
Understanding and tailoring the physical behaviour of halide perovskites under practical environments is critical for designing efficient and durable optoelectronic devices. Here, we report that continuous light illumination leads to >1% contraction in the out-of-plane direction in two-dimensional hybrid perovskites, which is reversible and strongly dependent on the specific superlattice packing. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy measurements show that constant light illumination results in the accumulation of positive charges in the terminal iodine atoms, thereby enhancing the bonding character of inter-slab I-I interactions across the organic barrier and activating out-of-plane contraction. Correlated charge transport, structural and photovoltaic measurements confirm that the onset of the light-induced contraction is synchronized to a threefold increase in carrier mobility and conductivity, which is consistent with an increase in the electronic band dispersion predicted by first-principles calculations. Flux-dependent space-charge-limited current measurement reveals that light-induced interlayer contraction activates interlayer charge transport. The enhanced charge transport boosts the photovoltaic efficiency of two-dimensional perovskite solar cells up to 18.3% by increasing the device's fill factor and open-circuit voltage.

Abstract
The fast progress of lab-scale perovskite solar cells makes the problem of upscaling of perovskite thin-film deposition more and more acute; therefore, the development of new methods for perovskite deposition is highly desired. In this work, we proposed a new solution-free preparation approach for hybrid perovskite films based on the in situ generation of methylammonium iodide from methylamine and iodine vapors in the presence of an organic reducing agent conjugated with a redox process of metallic lead conversion with iodine vapor. At first, we demonstrated that either metallic lead or lead iodide powders can readily react with the solution of methylamine and iodine in the presence of isopropyl alcohol acting as a reducing agent, resulting in a phase-pure polycrystalline CH3NH3PbI3 perovskite. A possible mechanism of underlying chemical processes has been proposed. In order to convert the predeposited thin films of metallic lead to CH3NH3PbI3 perovskite, a protocol of sequential treatment by iodine and methylamine vapors was proposed. Finally, we revealed the optimal conditions of processing, which were proven to be facile and robust for the sake of the better control of perovskite grain morphology.

Abstract
In order to endow quasi-2D organic-inorganic hybrid metal halide perovskites (quasi-2D-PVK) with superior performance, an aromatic organic ligand with aggregation-induced emission (AIE) features is rationally designed and utilized for constructing distinctive quasi-2D-PVK materials. This AIE-active ligand, TTPy-NH2 , well fits into the lattices of quasi-2D-PVK and leaves hydrophobic tails surrounding PVK layers, making the presented TTPy-NH2 /PVK film extraordinary in terms of both luminescence and stability. Benefiting from the prominent sensitization function and AIE tendency of TTPy-NH2 , the presented TTPy-NH2 /PVK film exhibits a high quantum yield of 62.2%, unique blue-red dual-emission property of both blue and red, high stability with the remnant of more than 94% fluorescence intensity remnant after 21 days. As a result, TTPy-NH2 /PVK film is capable of constituting high-performance white light-emitting diodes, with its color gamut reaching 138% of the National Television System Committee (NTSC) standard and the maximum efficiency is 105 lm W-1 at 20 mA. Evidently, a win-win effect is achieved by the integration of AIE-active ligands and quasi-2D-PVK, which are two of the most reputable solid-state luminogens. This developed protocol thus opens up a new avenue for exploring the next generation of luminescent devices.

Abstract
CsPbI3 inorganic perovskite is synthesized by a solvent-free, solid-state reaction, and its structural and optical properties can be deeply investigated using a multi-technique approach. X-ray Diffraction (XRD) and Raman measurements, optical absorption, steady-time and time-resolved luminescence, as well as High-Resolution Transmission Electron Microscopy (HRTEM) imaging, were exploited to understand phase evolution as a function of synthesis time length. Nanoparticles with multiple, well-defined crystalline domains of different crystalline phases were observed, usually surrounded by a thin, amorphous/out-of-axis shell. By increasing the synthesis time length, in addition to the pure α phase, which was rapidly converted into the δ phase at room temperature, a secondary phase, Cs4PbI6, was observed, together with the 715 nm-emitting γ phase.

Abstract
Organic-inorganic hybrid metal halides have attracted widespread attention as emerging optoelectronic materials, especially in solid-state lighting, where they can be used as single-component white-light phosphors for white light-emitting diodes. Herein, we have successfully synthesized a zero-dimensional (0D) organic-inorganic hybrid mixed-metal halide (Bmpip)2PbxSn1-xBr4 (0 < x < 1, Bmpip+ = 1-butyl-1-methyl-piperidinium, C10H22N+) that crystallizes in a monoclinic system in the C2/c space group. Pb2+ and Sn2+ form a four-coordinate seesaw structure separated by organic cations forming a 0D structure. For different excitation wavelengths, (Bmpip)2PbxSn1-xBr4 (0 < x < 1) exhibits double-peaked emission at 470 and 670 nm. The emission color of (Bmpip)2PbxSn1-xBr4 can be easily tuned from orange-red to blue by adjusting the Pb/Sn molar ratio or excitation wavelength. Representatively, (Bmpip)2Pb0.16Sn0.84Br4 exhibits approximately white-light emission with high photoluminescence quantum yield up to 39%. Interestingly, the color of (Bmpip)2PbxSn1-xBr4 can also be easily tuned by temperature, promising its potential for application in temperature measurement and indication. Phosphor-converted light-emitting diodes are fabricated by combining (Bmpip)2PbxSn1-xBr4 and 365 nm near-UV LED chips and exhibit high-quality light output.

Abstract
Low-dimensional perovskites (LDP) are nowadays recognized as promising materials for the realization of highly performing photovoltaic cells. However, issues related to film morphology, composition, crystal quality and material homogeneity limit the device performances and reproducibility. In this work, we implement a robust method for the deposition of a LDP mixing methylammonium (MA) and phenylethylammonium (PEA) cations to create the mixed system (PEA)2 MA39 Pb40 I121 by using a two-step thermal annealing treatment (at 60 and 100 °C). Our approach results in LDP films with high crystal quality and enhanced carrier lifetime, which double the power conversion efficiency of reference devices, reaching up to 15 %.

Abstract
Low-dimensional metal-halide perovskites have exhibited significantly superior nonlinear optical properties compared to traditional semiconductor counterparts, thanks to their peculiar physical and electronic structures. Their exceptional nonlinear optical characteristics make them excellent candidates for revolutionizing widespread applications. However, the research of nonlinear photonics based on low-dimensional metal-halide perovskites is in its infancy. There is a lack of comprehensive and in-depth summary of this research realm. Here, the state-of-the-art research progress related to third-and higher-order nonlinear optical properties of low-dimensional metal-halide perovskites with diverse crystal structures from 3D down to 0D, together with their practical applications, is summarized comprehensively. Critical discussions are offered on the fundamental mechanisms beneath their exceptional nonlinear optical performance from the physics viewpoint, attempting to disclose the role of intrinsic attributes (e.g., composition, bandgap, size, shape, and structure) and external modulation strategies (e.g., developing core-shell structures, transition metal ion doping, and hybridization with dielectric microspheres) in tuning the response. Additionally, their potential applications in nonlinear photonics, nonlinear optoelectronics, and biophotonics are systematically and thoroughly summed up and categorized. Lastly, insights into the current technical challenges and future research opportunities of nonlinear photonics based on low-dimensional metal-halide perovskites are provided.

Abstract
Solvation plays a pivotal role in chemistry and biology. A solid-state analogy of solvation is polaron formation, but the magnitude of Coulomb screening is typically an order of magnitude weaker than that of solvation in aqueous solutions. Here, we describe a new class of polarons, the ferroelectric large polaron, proposed initially by Miyata and Zhu in 2018 (Miyata, K.; Zhu, X.-Y. Ferroelectric Large Polarons. Nat. Mater. 2018, 17 (5), 379-381). This type of polaron allows efficient Coulomb screening of an electron or hole by extended ordering of dipoles from symmetry-broken unit cells. The local ordering is reflected in the ferroelectric-like THz dielectric responses of lead halide perovskites (LHPs) and may be partially responsible for their exceptional optoelectronic performances. Despite the likely absence of long-range ferroelectricity in LHPs, a charge carrier may be localized to and/or induce the formation of nanoscale domain boundaries of locally ordered dipoles. Based on the known planar nature of energetically favorable domain boundaries in ferroelectric materials, we propose that a ferroelectric polaron localizes to planar boundaries of transient polar nanodomains. This proposal is supported by dynamic simulations showing sheet-like transient electron or hole wave functions in LHPs. Thus, the Belgian-waffle-shaped ferroelectric polaron in the three-dimensional LHP crystal structure is a large polaron in two dimensions and a small polaron in the perpendicular direction. The ferroelectric large polaron may form in other crystalline solids characterized by dynamic symmetry breaking and polar fluctuations. We suggest that the ability to form ferroelectric large polarons can be a general principle for the efficient screening of charge carriers from scattering with other charge carriers, with charged defects and with longitudinal optical phonons, thus contributing to enhanced optoelectronic properties.

Abstract
Hybrid perovskite (HP) materials are of interest in photovoltaics and lighting applications. Here we report that hybrid perovskite composites, as crystallized powders, can behave as intelligent materials showing highly sensitive and reversible mechanochromic luminescence (MCL). Composites consisting of monolayered 2D HP and 3D HP components exhibit reversible tunable color emission upon mechanical strain. The bluish-whitish emission of the 2D HP turns into orange in the composite owing to an energy transfer process. The bright green emission, observed as soon as the composite is slightly crushed, originates from the 3D HP after efficient energy funneling from the multi-layered 2D HP produced at the 2D/3D interface by the mechanical treatment. Besides highlighting the key role of the interfaces in light emission of HP, our findings pave the way for hybrid perovskites as highly sensitive MCL smart materials for mechanosensors, security papers, or optical storage applications.

Abstract
Crystalline metal halide perovskites (MHPs) have provided unprecedented advances in interdisciplinary fields of materials, electronics, and photonics. While crystallinity offers numerous advantages, the ability to access a glassy state with distinct properties provides unique opportunities to extend the associated structure-property relationship, as well as broaden the application space for MHPs. Amorphous analogs for MHPs have so far been restricted to high pressures, limiting detailed studies and applications. Here, a 2D MHP is structurally tailored using bulky chiral organic cations to exhibit an unusual confluence of exceptionally low melting temperature (175 °C) and inhibited crystallization. The chiral MHP can thus be melt-quenched into a stable glassy state, otherwise inhibited in the analogous racemic MHP. Facile and reversible switching between glassy and crystalline states is demonstrated for the chiral MHP, each with distinct optoelectronic character, opening new opportunities for applications including, for example nonvolatile memory, optical communication, and neuromorphic computing.

Abstract
Recent developments in sensing technologies have triggered a lot of research interest in exploring novel self-powered, inexpensive, compact and flexible pressure sensors with the potential for structural health monitoring (SHM) applications. Herein, we assessed the performance of an embedded mechanoluminescent (ML) and perovskite pressure sensor that integrates the physical principles of mechanoluminescence and perovskite materials. For a continuous in-situ SHM, it is crucial to evaluate the capabilities of the sensing device when embedded into a composite structure. An experimental study of how the sensor is affected by the embedment process into a glass fiber-reinforced composite has been conducted. A series of devices with and without ML were embedded within a composite laminate, and the signal responses were collected under different conditions. We also demonstrated a successful encapsulation process in order for the device to withstand the composite manufacturing conditions. The results show that the sensor exhibits distinct signals when subjected to different load conditions and can be used for the in-situ SHM of advanced composite structures.

Abstract
The mechanism of white-light emission from layered Pb-X (X = Cl or Br) perovskites following UV excitation has generated considerable interest. Prior time-dependent studies indicated that the broadband photoluminescence (PL) from (110) perovskites arises from a distribution of self-trapped excitonic sites emitting in different regions of the visible spectrum with different decay dynamics. Here, using time-correlated single photon counting to study single crystals, we show that the white-light emission decay from the (110) perovskite (EDBE)PbBr4 (EDBE = 2,2'-(ethylenedioxy)bis(ethylammonium)) behaves as a single ensemble. Following the rapid decay (0.6 ns) of a small spectral side band, the broad emission line shape is constant to 100 ns. We propose that rapid local structural fluctuations cause the self-trapped excitons (STEs) to experience a wide range of energies, resulting in the very broad PL. The STEs sample fluctuating local environments on time scales fast compared to the PL, which averages the PL decay at all emission wavelengths, yielding single ensemble PL dynamics. Although emission occurs from a very wide, inhomogeneously broadened spectral line with time-averaged single ensemble luminescence dynamics, the decay is tri-exponential. Two heuristic models for the tri-exponential decay involving defects are discussed. Spin-coated films show faster non-exponential decays with the slowest component of the crystal PL absent. Like the crystals, the film PL decays as a single ensemble. These results demonstrate that the broadband emission decay of (EDBE)PbBr4 arises from a time-averaged single ensemble and not from a set of excited states emitting with distinct luminescence decays at different wavelengths.

Abstract
Two-dimensional hybrid perovskites are currently in the spotlight of condensed matter and nanotechnology research due to their intriguing optoelectronic and vibrational properties with emerging potential for light-harvesting and light-emitting applications. While it is known that these natural quantum wells host tightly bound excitons, the mobilities of these fundamental optical excitations at the heart of the optoelectronic applications are barely explored. Here, we directly monitor the diffusion of excitons through ultrafast emission microscopy from liquid helium to room temperature in hBN-encapsulated two-dimensional hybrid perovskites. We find very fast diffusion with characteristic hallmarks of free exciton propagation for all temperatures above 50 K. In the cryogenic regime, we observe nonlinear, anomalous behavior with an exceptionally rapid expansion of the exciton cloud followed by a very slow and even negative effective diffusion. We discuss our findings in view of efficient exciton-phonon coupling, highlighting two-dimensional hybrids as promising platforms for basic research and optoelectronic applications.

Abstract
The family of 2D Ruddlesden-Popper perovskites is currently attracting great interest of the scientific community as highly promising materials for energy harvesting and light emission applications. Despite the fact that these materials are known for decades, only recently has it become apparent that their optical properties are driven by the exciton-phonon coupling, which is controlled by the organic spacers. However, the detailed mechanism of this coupling, which gives rise to complex absorption and emission spectra, is the subject of ongoing controversy. In this work we show that the particularly rich, absorption spectra of (PEA)2(CH3NH3)n-1PbnI3n+1 (where PEA stands for phenylethylammonium and n = 1, 2, 3), are related to a vibronic progression of excitonic transition. In contrast to other two-dimensional perovskites, we observe a coupling to a high-energy (40 meV) phonon mode probably related to the torsional motion of the NH3+ head of the organic spacer.

Abstract
Organic-inorganic hybrid lead-halide perovskite materials (ABX3 ) have attracted widespread attention in the field of photovoltaics owing to their impressive optical and electrical properties. However, obstacles still exist in the commercialization of perovskite photovoltaics, such as poor stability, hysteresis, and human toxicity. A-site cation engineering is considered to be a powerful tool to tune perovskite structures and the resulting optoelectronic properties. Based on the selection and combination of A-site cations, three types of perovskite structures, i.e., 3D perovskite, reduced-dimensional (2D/quasi-2D) perovskite, and 2D/3D hybrid perovskite can be formed. Herein, the remarkable breakthroughs resulting from these three perovskite structures are summarized, and their corresponding properties and characteristics, as well as their intrinsic disadvantages, are highlighted. By summarizing recent research progress, a new viewpoint for improving the performance and stability of perovskite photovoltaics is provided.
