Du SN, Deng W, Liu JC, Chen YC, Yao CY, Zhou YQ, Wu SG, Liu JL, Tong ML. Phase Transition Control in Molecular Solids via Complementarity of Hydrogen-Bond Strength. Chemistry 2024; 30:e202401395. [PMID: 38802980 DOI: 10.1002/chem.202401395] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/09/2024] [Revised: 05/25/2024] [Accepted: 05/27/2024] [Indexed: 05/29/2024]
Abstract
Phase transitions in molecular solids involve synergistic changes in chemical and electronic structures, leading to diversification in physical and chemical properties. Despite the pivotal role of hydrogen bonds (H-bonds) in many phase-transition materials, it is rare and challenging to chemically regulate the dynamics and to elucidate the structure-property relationship. Here, four high-spin CoII compounds were isolated and systematically investigated by modifying the ligand terminal groups (X=S, Se) and substituents (Y=Cl, Br). S-Cl and Se-Br undergo a reversible structural phase transition near room temperature, triggering the rotation of 15-crown-5 guests and the swing between syn- and anti-conformation of NCX- ligands, accompanied by switchable magnetism. Conversely, S-Br and Se-Cl retain stability in ordered and disordered phases, respectively. H-bonds geometric analysis and ab initio calculations reveal that the electronegativity of X and Y affects the strength of NY-ap-H⋅⋅⋅X interactions. Entropy-driven structural phase transitions occur when the H-bond strength is appropriate; otherwise, the phase stays unchanged if it is too strong or weak. This work highlights a phase transition driven by H-bond strength complementarity - pairing strong acceptor with weak donor and vice versa, which offers a straightforward and effective approach for designing phase-transition molecular solids from a chemical perspective.

Abstract
In this study, we investigated reversible intermolecular proton shifting (IPS) coupled with spin transition (ST) in a novel FeII complex. The host FeII complex and the guest carboxylic acid anion were connected by intermolecular hydrogen bonds (IHBs). We extended the intramolecular proton transfer coupled ST phenomenon to the intermolecular system. The dynamic phenomenon was confirmed by variable-temperature single-crystal X-ray diffraction, neutron crystallography, and infrared spectroscopy. The mechanism of IPS was further validated using density functional theory calculations. The discovery of IPS-coupled ST in crystalline molecular materials provides good insights into fundamental processes and promotes the design of novel multifunctional materials with tunable properties for various applications, such as optoelectronics, information storage, and molecular devices.

Abstract
Mechanochemical synthesis via grinding of trimesic acid (TA, C9H6O6) and 4-chlorophenyl diphenyl phosphate (4CDP, C18H14ClO4P) (liquid at room temperature) in a 1:1 ratio resulted in the formation of an inclusion type of cocrystal. The crystallization of this phase via slow evaporation at low temperature (276-277 K) from methanol resulted in a rare `stairstep morphology' during the process of crystal growth. This morphology was not observed after crystallization of the compound from other solvents like toluene, dichloromethane, acetone, hexane and isooctane, and hence this was characteristically observed in methanol only. The characterization from single-crystal X-ray diffraction revealed the formation of a cocrystal with five molecules of TA and two molecules of 4CDP in the asymmetric unit. The trimesic acid molecules form hydrogen-bonded dimers resulting in hexagonal rings, and these rings are stacked through π-π intermolecular interactions to make a hexagonal honeycomb-like structure. The phosphate molecules, 4CDP, were found to be trapped as guests in these hexagonal channels. The similarity in the packing of trimesic acid is compared in the cocrystal and the free acid quantitatively via Xpac analysis, which establishes the relationship of a `2D supramolecular construct' between them. This signifies a unique type of arrangement in which the voids created by the trimesic acid moiety do not undergo distortion by the inclusion of the guest molecules. The quantitative analysis of the intermolecular interactions using Hirshfeld surfaces and fingerprint plots deciphers the role of both strong O-H...O hydrogen bonds and weak intermolecular interactions in the crystal packing.

Abstract
Hybrid organic-inorganic ferroelectrics (HOIFs) have a wide range of applications in the optoelectronic field in terms of rich optoelectronic properties. Particularly, lead-free HOIFs have attracted extensive attention due to their environmental friendliness, low heavy metal toxicity, and low synthesis cost. However, there are few reports about Zn-based HOIFs due to their uncontrollable ferroelectric synthesis and other reasons. Here, we designed and synthesized a zinc-based zero-dimensional (3,3-difluoropyrrolidine)2ZnCl4·H2O (DFZC) single crystal, which undergoes a phase transition from ferroelectric to paraelectric phase (space group from Pna21 to Pnma) at 295.5 K/288.9 K during the heating/cooling process. The systematic study shows that the ferroelectric phase transition is a displacive type. The ferroelectric hysteresis loop of DFZC was obtained by the double-wave method and the Sawyer-Tower method, which has a spontaneous polarization (Ps) of ∼0.4 μC/cm2. This work reveals the strategy to design new zinc-based lead-free HOIFs for potential applications in optoelectronic fields.

Nat Commun 2022; 13:794.

Abstract
The miniaturization of ferroelectric devices in non-volatile memories requires the device to maintain stable switching behavior as the thickness scales down to nanometer scale, which requires the coercive field to be sufficiently large. Recently discovered metal-free perovskites exhibit advantages such as structural tunability and solution-processability, but they are disadvantaged by a lower coercive field compared to inorganic perovskites. Herein, we demonstrate that the coercive field (110 kV/cm) in metal-free ferroelectric perovskite MDABCO-NH4-(PF6)3 (MDABCO = N-methyl-N'-diazabicyclo[2.2.2]octonium) is one order larger than MDABCO-NH4-I3 (12 kV/cm) owing to the stronger intermolecular hydrogen bonding in the former. Using isotope experiments, the ferroelectric-to-paraelectric phase transition temperature and coercive field are verified to be strongly influenced by hydrogen bonds. Our work highlights that the coercive field of organic ferroelectrics can be tailored by tuning the strength of hydrogen bonding.

Abstract
Organic cocrystal engineering refers to two or more organic molecules stoichiometrically combined and held together by noncovalent intermolecular interactions, which differs from standard chemical synthesis involving covalent bond breakage and formation. Organic cocrystals have unique properties and offer a new strategy for creating enhanced organics. First, however, some key questions need to be addressed: How do diverse monomers affect the intermolecular interaction kinetics during cocrystallization? How do the intermolecular forces in cocrystals affect cocrystal functions? In this Perspective, the definition and advantages of organic cocrystal engineering, specifically in the construction of a reliable intermolecular interaction-stacking structure-performance relationship, are outlined. Additionally, recent developments in the field and the questions above are discussed. Finally, a brief conclusion and some hints on likely future developments are provided.

Abstract
Perovskite-like ABX3 metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) have gathered great interest due to their intriguing chemical and physical properties, including their magnetism, ferroelectricity, and multiferroicity. Pressure is an effective thermal parameter in tuning related properties in MOFs due to the adjustable organic framework. Though spectrum experiments have been made on the structural evolution during decompression, there is a lack of electrical studies on the order-disorder ferroelectric transition in the metal-organic frameworks under pressure. In this work, we use a static pyroelectric current measurement, a dynamic dielectric method combined with a Raman scattering technique with applying in situ pressure, to explore the order-disorder ferroelectric transition in [(CH3)2NH2]Co(HCOO)3. The ferroelectric transition vanishes around the external pressure of 1.6 GPa, emerging with a new paraelectric phase. Another phase transition was observed at 6.32 GPa, mainly associated with the distortive transition of DMA+ cations. A phenomenological theory of ferroelectricity vanishing at 1.6 GPa for [(CH3)2NH2]Co(HCOO)3 is also discussed. Our study gives a comprehensive understanding in the pressure tuning of ferroelectric properties in hybrid inorganic-organic materials.

Abstract
The iron(ii) salt [Fe(bpp)2](isonicNO)2·HisonicNO·5H2O (1) (bpp = 2,6-bis(pyrazol-3-yl)pyridine; isonicNO = isonicotinate N-oxide anion) undergoes a partial spin crossover (SCO) with symmetry breaking at T 1 = 167 K to a mixed-spin phase (50% high-spin (HS), 50% low-spin (LS)) that is metastable below T 2 = 116 K. Annealing the compound at lower temperatures results in a 100% LS phase that differs from the initial HS phase in the formation of a hydrogen bond (HB) between two water molecules (O4W and O5W) of crystallisation. Neutron crystallography experiments have also evidenced a proton displacement inside a short strong hydrogen bond (SSHB) between two isonicNO anions. Both phenomena can also be detected in the mixed-spin phase. 1 undergoes a light-induced excited-state spin trapping (LIESST) of the 100% HS phase, with breaking of the O4W⋯O5W HB and the onset of proton static disorder in the SSHB, indicating the presence of a light-induced activation energy barrier for proton motion. This excited state shows a stepped relaxation at T 1(LIESST) = 68 K and T 2(LIESST) = 76 K. Photocrystallography measurements after the first relaxation step reveal a single Fe site with an intermediate geometry, resulting from the random distribution of the HS and LS sites throughout the lattice.

Abstract
We propose a new approach to obtain ultra-high piezoelectric coefficients that can be infinitely large theoretically, where ferroelectrics with strain-sensitive Curie temperature are necessary. We show the first-principles plus Monte Carlo simulation evidence that many hydrogen-bonded ferroelectrics (e.g. organic PhMDA) can be ideal candidates, which are also flexible and lead-free. Owing to the specific features of hydrogen bonding, their proton hopping barrier will drastically increase with prolonged proton transfer distance, while their hydrogen-bonded network can be easily compressed or stretched due to softness of hydrogen bonds. Their barriers as well as the Curie temperature can be approximately doubled upon a tensile strain as low as 2%. Their Curie temperature can be tuned exactly to room temperature by fixing a strain in one direction, and in another direction, an unprecedented ultra-high piezoelectric coefficient of 2058 pC/N can be obtained. This value is even underestimated and can be greatly enhanced when applying a smaller strain. Aside from sensors, they can also be utilized for converting either mechanical or thermal energies into electrical energies due to high pyroelectric coefficients.

Abstract
Molecular ferroelectrics as alternatives to the conventional inorganic ferroelectrics have been greatly developed in past decades; many of these have been discovered and designed through various chemical means due to their structural adjustability. However, it is still a huge challenge to obtain high (above room temperature) Curie temperature (Tc) molecular ferroelectrics to meet the application requirements. Here, we present a new organic-inorganic hybrid molecular ferroelectric, [cyclopentylammonium]2CdBr4 (1), showing a moderate above-room-temperature Tc of 340.3 K. The mechanism of the ferroelectric phase transition from Pnam to Pna21 in 1 is ascribed to the order-disorder transition of both the organic cations and inorganic anions, affording a spontaneous polarization of 0.57 μC/cm2 for the ferroelectric phase. Using piezoresponse force microscopy (PFM), we clearly observed the antiparallel 180° stripe domains and realized the polarization switching, unambiguously establishing the existence of room-temperature ferroelectricity in the thin film. These attributes make it attractive for use in flexible devices, soft robotics, biomedical devices, and other applications.

Abstract
A proton-transfer reaction between squaric acid (H2sq) and 2,3-dimethylpyrazine (2,3-Me2pyz) results in crystallization of a new organic antiferroelectric (AFE), (2,3-Me2pyzH+)(Hsq-)·H2O (1), which possesses a layered structure. The structure of each layer can be described as partitioned into strips lined with methyl groups of the Me2pyzH+ cations and strips featuring extensive hydrogen bonding between the Hsq- anions and water molecules. Variable-temperature dielectric measurements and crystal structures determined through a combination of single-crystal X-ray and neutron diffraction reveal an AFE ordering at 104 K. The phase transition is driven by ordering of protons within the hydrogen-bonded strips. Considering the extent of proton transfer, the paraelectric (PE) state can be formulated as (2,3-Me2pyzH+)2(Hsq23-)(H5O2+), whereas the AFE phase can be described as (2,3-Me2pyzH+)(Hsq-)(H2O). The structural transition caused by the localization of protons results in the change in color from yellow in the PE state to colorless in the AFE state. The occurrence and mechanism of the AFE phase transition have been also confirmed by heat capacity measurements and variable-temperature infrared and Raman spectroscopy. This work demonstrates a potentially promising approach to the design of new electrically ordered materials by engineering molecule-based crystal structures in which hydrogen-bonding interactions are intentionally partitioned into quasi-one-dimensional regions.

Abstract
The carboxylic acid group is an example of a functional group which possess a good hydrogen-bond donor (-OH) and acceptor (C=O). For this reason, carboxylic acids have a tendency to self-assembly by the formation of hydrogen bonds between the donor and acceptor sites. We present here the crystal structure of N-tosyl-L-proline (TPOH) benzene hemisolvate {systematic name: (2S)-1-[(4-methylbenzene)sulfonyl]pyrrolidine-2-carboxylic acid benzene hemisolvate}, C12H15NO4S·0.5C6H6, (I), in which a cyclic R22(8) hydrogen-bonded carboxylic acid dimer with a strong O-(1/2H)...(1/2H)-O hydrogen bond is observed. The compound was characterized by single-crystal X-ray diffraction and NMR spectroscopy, and crystallizes in the space group I2 with half a benzene molecule and one TPOH molecule in the asymmetric unit. The H atom of the carboxyl OH group is disordered over a twofold axis. An analysis of the intermolecular interactions using the noncovalent interaction (NCI) index showed that the TPOH molecules form dimers due to the strong O-(1/2H)...(1/2H)-O hydrogen bond, while the packing of the benzene solvent molecules is governed by weak dispersive interactions. A search of the Cambridge Structural Database revealed that the disordered dimeric motif observed in (I) was found previously only in six crystal structures.

Abstract
Purely organic crystals, κ-X3(Cat-EDT-TTF)2 [X = H or D, Cat-EDT-TTF = catechol-fused tetrathiafulvalene], are a new type of molecular conductor with hydrogen dynamics. In this work, hydrostatic pressure effects on these materials were investigated in terms of the electrical resistivity and crystal structure. The results indicate that the pressure induces and promotes hydrogen (deuterium) localization in the hydrogen bond, in contrast to the case of the conventional hydrogen-bonded materials (where pressure prevents hydrogen localization), and consequently leads to a significant change in the electrical conducting properties (i.e., the occurrence of a semiconductor-insulator transition). Therefore, we have successfully found a new type of pressure-induced phase transition where the cooperation of the hydrogen dynamics and π-electron interactions plays a crucial role.

Abstract
Supramolecular cocrystals of anilic acids with 2,2′-bipyridines exhibit successive phase transitions as well as unusual isotope effects. Ferroelectricity driven by a cooperative proton transfer along the supramolecular chains is accompanied by huge permittivity (a maximum of 13 000) at the Curie point, as well as a large spontaneous polarization (maximum 5 μC cm−2) and a low coercive field ranging from 0.5 to 10 kV cm−1. Deuterium substitutions over the hydrogen bonds smoothly raise the Curie point and simultaneously reduce other phase-transition temperatures by a few tens of degrees. The coexistence of opposite isotope effects reduces the temperature interval of the intermediate paraelectric phase from 84 to 10 K for the 5,5′-dimethyl-2,2′-bipyridinium bromanilate salt. The bipyridine molecules exhibit interplanar twisting, which represents the order parameter relevant to the high-temperature phase transitions. The normal and inverse temperature shifts are ascribed to the direct and indirect effects, respectively, of the lengthened hydrogen bonds, which adjusts the molecular conformation of the flexible bipyridine unit so as to minimally modify their adjacent intermolecular interactions. Deuterium substitutions of the hydrogen-bonded ferroelectrics smoothly raise the Curie point and simultaneously reduce other phase-transition temperatures by a few tens of degrees.![]()

Abstract
Ferroelectricity and antiferroelectricity are widely seen in various types of condensed matter and are of technological significance not only due to their electrical switchability but also due to intriguing cross-coupling effects such as electro-mechanical and electro-caloric effects. The control of the two types of dipolar order has practically been made by changing the ionic radius of a constituent atom or externally applying strain for inorganic crystals and by changing the shape of a molecule for organic crystals. However, the basic physical principle behind such controllability involving crystal-lattice organization is still unknown. On the basis of a physical picture that a competition of dipolar order with another type of order is essential to understand this phenomenon, here we develop a simple model system composed of spheroid-like particles with a permanent dipole, which may capture an essence of this important structural transition in organic systems. In this model, we reveal that energetic frustration between the two types of anisotropic interactions, dipolar and steric interactions, is a key to control not only the phase transition but also the coupling between polarization and strain. Our finding provides a fundamental physical principle for self-organization to a crystal with desired dipolar order and realization of large electro-mechanical effects.

Abstract
An organic-inorganic hybrid compound with an extensive three-dimensional (3D) crystal structure, (3-nitroanilinium)2(18-crown-6)2(H2PO4)2(H3PO4)3(H2O) (1), was synthesized under slow evaporation conditions. Differential scanning calorimetry measurements indicated that 1 underwent a reversible phase transition at ca 231 K with a hysteresis width of 10 K. Variable-temperature X-ray single-crystal diffraction revealed that the phase transition of 1 can be ascribed to coupling of pendulum-like motions of its nitro group with proton transfer in O-H···O hydrogen bonds of the 3D framework. The temperature dependence of its dielectric permittivity demonstrated a step-like change in the range of 150-280 K with remarkable dielectric anisotropy, making 1 a promising switchable dielectric material. Potential energy calculations further supported the possibility of dynamic motion of the cationic nitro group. Overall, our findings may inspire the development of other switchable dielectric phase transition materials by introducing inorganic anions into organic-inorganic hybrid systems.

Abstract
The development of molecular materials whose physical properties can be controlled by external stimuli - such as light, electric field, temperature, and pressure - has recently attracted much attention owing to their potential applications in molecular devices. There are a number of ways to alter the physical properties of crystalline materials. These include the modulation of the spin and redox states of the crystal's components, or the incorporation within the crystalline lattice of tunable molecules that exhibit stimuli-induced changes in their molecular structure. A switching behaviour can also be induced by changing the molecular orientation of the crystal's components, even in cases where the overall molecular structure is not affected. Controlling intermolecular interactions within a molecular material is also an effective tool to modulate its physical properties. This Review discusses recent advances in the development of such stimuli-responsive, switchable crystalline compounds - referred to here as dynamic molecular crystals - and suggests how different approaches can serve to prepare functional materials.

Abstract
Inorganic perovskite ferroelectrics are widely used in nonvolatile memory elements, capacitors, and sensors because of their excellent ferroelectric and other properties. Organic ferroelectrics are desirable for their mechanical flexibility, low weight, environmentally friendly processing, and low processing temperatures. Although almost a century has passed since the first ferroelectric, Rochelle salt, was discovered, examples of highly desirable organic perovskite ferroelectrics are lacking. We found a family of metal-free organic perovskite ferroelectrics with the characteristic three-dimensional structure, among which MDABCO (N-methyl-N'-diazabicyclo[2.2.2]octonium)-ammonium triiodide has a spontaneous polarization of 22 microcoulombs per square centimeter [close to that of barium titanate (BTO)], a high phase transition temperature of 448 kelvins (above that of BTO), and eight possible polarization directions. These attributes make it attractive for use in flexible devices, soft robotics, biomedical devices, and other applications.

Abstract
In attempt to the obtain detailed geometric information of proton transfer compound (subsequently denote as SQBP) formed between squaric acid (SQ)and 4,4′-bipyridine(BP), and to investigate the mechanisms of pressure-induced double proton transfer and related structural phase transition, we carried out in-situ high pressure Raman spectroscopy of SQBP up to 20 GPa. A solid-solid phase transition together with double proton transfer phenomenon was confirmed by Raman spectroscopy at about 1.5 GPa, and the activation of C = O stretching mode in Raman spectra indicates a square-ring structure of SQ with four symmetric C = O bond formation. These results are further supported by first-principals calculations and in-situ high pressure infrared absorption spectroscopy. Additionally, Raman intensity analysis suggests that a higher-order phase transition with planar BP molecular structure occurred in the pressure range of 3~6 GPa. As a result, the π electron delocalization effect in BP dominated the intensity enhancement of C = O stretching mode in SQ. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first time observation of the intensity enhancement of proton donor’s normal modes induced by proton acceptor’s π electron delocalization.

Abstract
The process of molecular recognition is the assembly of two or more molecules through weak interactions. Information in the process of molecular recognition can be transmitted to us via physical signals, which may find applications in sensing and switching. The conventional signals are mainly limited to light signal. Here, we describe the recognition of diols with Cu(1,10-phenlothroline)2SeO4 and the transduction of discrete recognition events into dielectric and/or ferroelectric signals. We observe that systems of Cu(1,10-phenlothroline)2SeO4·(diol) exhibit significant dielectric and/or ferroelectric dependence on different diol molecules. The compounds including ethane-1,2-diol or propane-1,2-diol just show small temperature-dependent dielectric anomalies and no reversible polarization, while the compound including ethane-1,3-diol shows giant temperature-dependent dielectric anomalies as well as ferroelectric reversible spontaneous polarization. This finding shows that dielectricity and/or ferroelectricity has the potential to be used for signalling molecular recognition. Molecular recognition is an important biological process where guest and host molecules interact through non-covalent bonding. Ye et al. show that this can be sensed by the dielectric and ferroelectric signals of the final complexes in a series of metal-coordination compounds with different diol molecules.

Abstract
Second-harmonic generation (SHG) is one of the outstanding properties for practical applications. However, the great majority of molecular ferroelectric materials have very low nonlinear optical coefficients, attenuating their attractive performance. Here we synthesized (4-amino-2-bromopyridinium)(4-amino-2-bromopyridine)tetrafluoroborate (1), whose second-order nonlinear optical coefficient reaches up to 2.56 pm V(-1), 2.67 times of that of KDP, and (4-amino-2-bromopyridinium)tetrafluoroborate (2), possessing a more incredible large second-order nonlinear optical coefficient as high as 10.24 pm V(-1), 10.67 times that of KDP. The compound 1 undergoes two reversible phase transitions at around T1 = 244.1 K and T2 = 154.6 K, caused by dramatic changes of the protonated cations and order-disorder of anions, which was disclosed by differential scanning calorimetry, heat capacity, dielectric anomalies, SHG, and single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis. The pyroelectric measurements reveal that compound 1 is a Rochelle salt type ferroelectric, which has a large spontaneous polarization of about 3 μC/cm(2).

Abstract
Semiconducting ferroelectricity is realized in hybrid perovskite-type compounds (cyclohexylammonium)2 PbBr4-4 x I4 x (x = 0-1). By adjusting the composition x, the bandgap is successfully tuned from previously reported 3.65 eV to as low as 2.74 eV, and the excellent ferroelectricity was kept intact. This finding may contribute to improving the photoelectronic and/or photovoltaic performance of hybrid perovskite-type compounds.

Abstract
We unexpectedly observed a large amplification of the dielectric properties associated with the photoswitching effect and the new unusual phenomenon of delayed photoinduced capacitor-like (i.e. electric polarization) behavior at the interface on samples of three-layered core-shell (γ-FeOx@AuNP)@[C60(>DPAF-C9)](n)2 nanoparticles (NPs) in frequencies of 0.5-4.0 GHz. The detected relative dielectric constant amplification was initiated upon switching off the light followed by relaxation to give an excellent recyclability. These NPs having e(-)-polarizable fullerosomic structures located at the outer layer were fabricated from highly magnetic core-shell γ-FeOx@AuNPs. Surface-stabilized 2 in a core-shell structure was found to be capable of photoinducing the surface plasmonic resonance (SPR) effect by white LED light. The accumulated SPR energy was subsequently transferred to the partially bilayered C60(>DPAF-C9) fullerosomic membrane layer in a near-field (∼1.5 nm) region without producing radiation heat. Since the monostatic SAR signal is dielectric property-dependent, we used these measurements to provide evidence of derived reflectivity changes on a surface coated with 2 at 0.5-4.0 GHz upon illumination of LED white light. We found that a high, >99%, efficiency of response amplification in image amplitude can be achieved.

Abstract
The impact of supramolecular hydrogen bonded networks on dynamics and charge transport in 2-ethyl-4-methylimidazole (2E4MIm), a model proton-conducting system, is investigated by broadband dielectric spectroscopy, depolarized dynamic light scattering, viscometry, and calorimetry. It is observed that the slow, Debye-like relaxation reflecting the supramolecular structure in neat 2E4MIm is eliminated upon the addition of minute amounts of levulinic acid. This is attributed to the dissociation of imidazole molecules and the breaking down of hydrogen-bonded chains, which leads to a 10-fold enhancement of ionic conductivity.

Abstract
A hybrid organic-inorganic compound, (pyrrolidinium)MnBr3 , distinguished from rare earth (RE)-doped inorganic perovskites, is discovered as a new member of the ferroelectrics family, having excellent luminescent properties and relatively large spontaneous polarization of 6 μC cm(-2) , as well as a weak ferromagnetism at about 2.4 K. With a quantum yield of >28% and emission lifetime >0.1 ms, such multiferroic photoluminescence is a suitable candidate for future applications in luminescence materials, photovoltaics, and magneto-optoelectronic devices.

Abstract
Supramolecular chemistry uses non-covalent interactions to coax molecules into forming ordered assemblies. The construction of ordered materials with these reversible bonds has led to dramatic innovations in organic electronics, polymer science and biomaterials. Here, we review how supramolecular strategies can advance the burgeoning field of organic ferroelectricity. Ferroelectrics - materials with a spontaneous and electrically reversible polarization - are touted for use in non-volatile computer memories, sensors and optics. Historically, this physical phenomenon has been studied in inorganic materials, although some organic examples are known and strong interest exists to extend the search for ferroelectric molecular systems. Other undiscovered applications outside this regime could also emerge. We describe the key features necessary for molecular and supramolecular dipoles in organic ferroelectrics and their incorporation into ordered systems, such as porous frameworks and liquid crystals. The goal of this Review is to motivate the development of innovative supramolecular ferroelectrics that exceed the performance and usefulness of known systems.

Abstract
Three polymorphic forms of 6,6'-dimethyl-2,2'-bipyridinium chloranilate crystals were characterized to understand the origin of polarization properties and the thermal stability of ferroelectricity. According to the temperature-dependent permittivity, differential scanning calorimetry, and X-ray diffraction, structural phase transitions were found in all polymorphs. Notably, the ferroelectric α-form crystal, which has the longest hydrogen bond (2.95 Å) among the organic acid/base-type supramolecular ferroelectrics, transformed from a polar structure (space group, P21) into an anti-polar structure (space group, P21/c) at 378 K. The non-ferroelectric β- and γ-form crystals also exhibited structural rearrangements around hydrogen bonds. The hydrogen-bonded geometry and ferroelectric properties were compared with other supramolecular ferroelectrics. A positive relationship between the phase-transition temperature (TC ) and hydrogen-bond length (<d>) was observed, and was attributed to the potential barrier height for proton off-centering or order/disorder phenomena. The optimized spontaneous polarization (Ps ) agreed well with the results of the first-principles calculations, and could be amplified by separating the two equilibrium positions of protons with increasing <d>. These data consistently demonstrated that stretching <d> is a promising way to enhance the polarization performance and thermal stability of hydrogen-bonded organic ferroelectrics.

Abstract
Hybrid organo-metal halide perovskite materials, such as CH3NH3PbI3, have been shown to be some of the most competitive candidates for absorber materials in photovoltaic (PV) applications. However, their potential has not been completely developed, because a photovoltaic effect with an anomalously large voltage can be achieved only in a ferroelectric phase, while these materials are probably ferroelectric only at temperatures below 180 K. A new hexagonal stacking perovskite-type complex (3-pyrrolinium)(CdCl3) exhibits above-room-temperature ferroelectricity with a Curie temperature T(c)=316 K and a spontaneous polarization P(s)=5.1 μC cm(-2). The material also exhibits antiparallel 180° domains which are related to the anomalous photovoltaic effect. The open-circuit photovoltage for a 1 mm-thick bulky crystal reaches 32 V. This finding could provide a new approach to develop solar cells based on organo-metal halide perovskites in photovoltaic research.
