Abstract
Ferroelectricity, which has diverse important applications such as memory elements, capacitors, and sensors, was first discovered in a molecular compound, Rochelle salt, in 1920 by Valasek. Owing to their superiorities of lightweight, biocompatibility, structural tunability, mechanical flexibility, etc., the past decade has witnessed the renaissance of molecular ferroelectrics as promising complementary materials to commercial inorganic ferroelectrics. Thus, on the 100th anniversary of ferroelectricity, it is an opportune time to look into the future, specifically into how to push the boundaries of material design in molecular ferroelectric systems and finally overcome the hurdles to their commercialization. Herein, we present a comprehensive and accessible review of the appealing development of molecular ferroelectrics over the past 10 years, with an emphasis on their structural diversity, chemical design, exceptional properties, and potential applications. We believe that it will inspire intense, combined research efforts to enrich the family of high-performance molecular ferroelectrics and attract widespread interest from physicists and chemists to better understand the structure-function relationships governing improved applied functional device engineering.

[PMID: 38700990 PMCID: PMC11110009 DOI: 10.1021/acs.inorgchem.4c00908] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/05/2024] [Revised: 04/10/2024] [Accepted: 04/23/2024] [Indexed: 05/05/2024]
Abstract
Halogenobismuthate(III) compounds are of recent interest because of their low toxicity and distinct electrical properties. The utility of these materials as ferroelectrics for piezoelectric energy harvesters is still in its early stages. Herein, we report a hybrid ammonium halogenobismuthate(III) [BPBrDMA]2·[BiBr5], crystallizing in a ferroelectrically active polar noncentrosymmetric Pna21 space group. Its noncentrosymmetric structure was confirmed by the detection of the second harmonic generation response. The ferroelectric P-E hysteresis loop measurements on the thin film sample of [BPBrDMA]2·[BiBr5] gave a saturation polarization (Ps) of 5.72 μC cm-2. The piezoresponse force microscopy analysis confirmed its ferroelectric and piezoelectric nature, showing characteristic domain structures and signature hysteresis and butterfly loops. The piezoelectric energy harvesting attributes of [BPBrDMA]2·[BiBr5] were further probed on its polylactic acid (PLA) composites. The 15 wt % [BPBrDMA]2·[BiBr5]-PLA polymer composite resulted in a high output voltage of 26.2 V and power density of 15.47 μW cm-2. The energy harvested from this device was further utilized for charging a 10 μF capacitor within 3 min.

Abstract
Interaction of the pre-organized complex of iron(II) trimethylacetate and 1,10-phenanthroline (phen) [Fe2(piv)4(phen)2] (1) (piv = (Me)3CCO2-)) with 1,6-diaminohexane (dahx) in anhydrous acetonitrile yielded a 1D coordination polymer [Fe3O(piv)6(dahx)1.5]n (2) and an organic salt of pivalic acid (H2dahx)(piv)2 (3). The structure of the obtained compounds was determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis. The phase purity of the complexes was determined by powder X-ray diffraction analysis. According to the single-crystal X-ray analysis, coordination polymer 2 is formed due to the binding of a triangular carboxylate core {Fe3(μ3-O)(μ-piv)6} with an aliphatic diamine ligand. Thermal behavior was investigated for compounds 1 and 2 in an argon atmosphere.

Abstract
Low-dimensional hybrid bismuth halide perovskites have recently emerged as a class of non-toxic alternative to lead perovskites with promising optoelectronic properties. Here, we report three hybrid bismuth(III)-iodides: 0-D (H2DAC)2Bi2I10 ⋅ 6H2O (H2DAC_Bi_I), 0-D (H2DAF)4Bi2I10 ⋅ 2I3 ⋅ 2I ⋅ 6H2O (H2DAF_Bi_I), and 1-D (H2DAP)BiI5 (H2DAP_Bi_I) (where H2DAC=trans-1,4-diammoniumcyclohexane; H2DAF=2,7-diammoniumfluorene and H2DAP=1,5-diammoniumpentane). Their synthesis, single-crystal X-ray structures, and photophysical properties are reported. The first two compounds comprise edge-sharing [Bi2I10]4- dimers, while the last compound has cis-corner-sharing 1-D chains of [BiI6]3- octahedra. Intercalation of triiodide (I3 -) and iodide (I-) ions enhance electronic coupling between the [Bi2I10]4- of H2DAF_Bi_I, leading to enhanced optical absorption, compared to H2DAC_Bi_I which lacks such intercalants. Furthermore, calorimetric and variable temperature X-ray diffraction measurements suggest a centrosymmetric to non-centrosymmetric phase transition (monoclinic P212121↔orthorhombic Pnma) of H2DAP_Bi_I at 448 K (in heating step) and at 443 K (in cooling step).

Abstract
Lead halide perovskites are extensively investigated as efficient solution-processable materials for photovoltaic applications. The greatest stability and performance of these compounds are achieved by mixing different ions at all three sites of the APbX3 structure. Despite the extensive use of mixed lead halide perovskites in photovoltaic devices, a detailed and systematic understanding of the mixing-induced effects on the structural and dynamic aspects of these materials is still lacking. The goal of this review is to summarize the current state of knowledge on mixing effects on the structural phase transitions, crystal symmetry, cation and lattice dynamics, and phase diagrams of three- and low-dimensional lead halide perovskites. This review analyzes different mixing recipes and ingredients providing a comprehensive picture of mixing effects and their relation to the attractive properties of these materials.

Abstract
Low dimensional organic inorganic metal halide materials have shown broadband emission and large Stokes shift, making them widely used in various fields and a promising candidate material. Here, the zero-dimensional lead-free bromide single crystals (C6H14N)3Bi2Br9·H2O (1) and (C6H14N)3Sb3Br12 (2) were synthesized. They crystallized in the monoclinic crystal system with the space group of P21 and P21/n, respectively. Through ultraviolet-visible-near-infrared (UV-vis-NIR) absorption analysis, the band gaps of (C6H14N)3Bi2Br9·H2O and (C6H14N)3Sb3Br12 are found to be 2.75 and 2.83 eV, respectively. Upon photoexcitation, (C6H14N)3Bi2Br9·H2O exhibit broad-band red emission peaking at 640 nm with a large Stokes shift of 180 nm and a lifetime of 2.94 ns, and the emission spectrum of (C6H14N)3Sb3Br12 are similar to those of (C6H14N)3Bi2Br9·H2O. This exclusive red emission is ascribed to the self-trapping exciton transition caused by lattice distortion, which is confirmed through both experiments and first-principles calculations. In addition, due to the polar space group structure and the large spin-orbit coupling (SOC) associated with the heavy elements of Bi and Br of crystal 1, an obvious Rashba effect was observed. The discovery of organic inorganic metal bromide material provides a critical foundation for uncovering the connection between 0D metal halide materials' structures and properties.

Polymorphism and Red Photoluminescence Emission from 5s 2 Electron Pairs of Sb(III) in a New One-Dimensional Organic-Inorganic Hybrid Based on Methylhydrazine: MHy 2SbI 5. Molecules 2024; 29:455.

Abstract
We explore the crystal structure and luminescent properties of a new 1D organic-inorganic hybrid, MHy2SbI5, based on methylhydrazine. The compound reveals the red photoluminescence (PL) originating from the 5s2 electron pairs of Sb(III) as well as complex structural behavior. MHy2SbI5 crystalizes in two polymorphic forms (I and II) with distinct thermal properties and structural characteristics. Polymorph I adopts the acentric P212121 chiral space group confirmed by SHG, and, despite a thermally activated disorder of MHy, does not show any phase transitions, while polymorph II undergoes reversible low-temperature phase transition and high-temperature reconstructive transformation to polymorph I. The crystal structures of both forms consist of 1D perovskite zig-zag chains of corner-sharing SbI6 octahedra. The intriguing phase transition behavior of II is associated with the unstable arrangement of the [SbI5]2-∞ chains in the structure. The energy band gap (Eg) values, estimated based on the UV-Vis absorption spectra, indicate that both polymorphs have band gaps, with Eg values of 2.01 eV for polymorph I and 2.12 eV for polymorph II.

Abstract
Organic-inorganic hybrid metal halides have attracted significant attention in recent years due to their excellent optoelectronic properties and potential applications in solar cells. Herein, the organic-inorganic hybrid molecule [N,N-dimethyl-1,3-propanediamine]SbBr5 (1) was synthesized by reacting a long-chain organic diamine N,N-dimethyl-1,3-propanediamine with SbBr3 as a metal halide precursor in HBr aqueous solution. Compound 1 possesses a one-dimensional chainlike structure with the second-harmonic generation switch and two continuous phase transitions above room temperature. The band gap of compound 1 is about 2.62 eV, exhibiting a semiconductive property, which may have important implications for the development of new optoelectronic devices.

Abstract
Molecular ferroelectrics that have excellent ferroelectric properties, a low processing temperature, narrow bandgap, and which are lightweight, have shown great potential in the photovoltaic field. However, two-dimensional (2D) perovskite solar cells with high tunability, excellent photo-physical properties and superior long-term stability are limited by poor out-of-plane conductivity from intrinsic multi-quantum-well electronic structures. This work uses 2D molecular ferroelectric film as the absorbing layer to break the limit of multiple quantum wells. Our 2D ferroelectric solar cells achieve the highest open-circuit voltage (1.29 V) and the best efficiency (3.71%) among the 2D (n = 1) Ruddlesden-Popper perovskite solar cells due to the enhanced out-of-plane charge transport induced by molecular ferroelectrics with a strong saturation polarization, high Curie temperature and multiaxial characteristics. This work aims to break the inefficient out-of-plane charge transport caused by the limit of the multi-quantum-well electronic structure and improve the efficiency of 2D ferroelectric solar cells.

Lim AR. Investigation of the structure, phase transitions, molecular dynamics, and ferroelasticity of organic-inorganic hybrid NH(CH 3) 3CdCl 3 crystals. RSC Adv 2023; 13:18538-18545. [PMID: 37346949 PMCID: PMC10280046 DOI: 10.1039/d3ra01980b] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/26/2023] [Accepted: 06/13/2023] [Indexed: 06/23/2023] Open
Abstract
Understanding the physical and chemical properties of the organic-inorganic hybrid NH(CH3)3CdCl3 is essential for its application. Considering its importance, a single crystal of NH(CH3)3CdCl3 was grown with an orthorhombic structure at 300 K. The phase transition temperatures were determined to be 345 (TC3), 376 (TC2), and 452 K (TC1) (phases IV, III, II, and I, respectively, starting from a low temperature). The partial decomposition temperature was 522 K (Td). Furthermore, the NMR chemical shifts of the 1H, 13C, and 113Cd atoms of the cation and anion varied with increasing temperature. Consequently, a significant change in the coordination geometry of Cl around Cd in CdCl6 and a change in the coordination geometry of H in NH was associated with changes in the N-H⋯Cl hydrogen bond near the phase transition temperature. The 13C activation energy Ea obtained from the spin-lattice relaxation time was smaller than that of 1H Ea, suggesting that energy transfer around 13C is easier. Additionally, a comparison of the twin domain walls measured via optical polarizing microscopy and Sapriel's theory indicated that the crystal structure in phase III was more likely to be orthorhombic than hexagonal.

Abstract
Organic-inorganic Hybrid (OIH) materials for multifunctional switchable applications have attracted enormous attention in recent years due to their excellent optoelectronic properties and good structural tunability. However, it still remains challenging to fabricate one simple OIH compound with multi-functionals properties, such as dielectric switching, thermochromic properties, semiconductor characteristics and ferroelasticity. Under this context, we successfully synthesized [2-(2-fluorophenyl)ethan-1- ammonium]2 SnBr6 (compound 1), which has a higher phase transition temperature of 427.7 K. Additionally, it exhibits a semiconducting property with an indirect band gap of 2.36 eV. Combining ferroelastic, narrow band gap, thermochromic, and dielectric properties, compound 1 can be considered as a rarely reported multi-functional ferroelastic material, which is expected to give inspiration for broadening the applications in the smart devices field.

Near-room-temperature martensitic actuation profited from one-dimensional hybrid perovskite structure. Nat Commun 2022; 13:6599.

Abstract
Martensitic transformation, usually accompanied by ferroelastic and thermoelastic behaviors, is an interesting and useful mechanical-related property upon external stimuli. For molecular crystals, however, martensitic systems to show reversible stimuli-actuation behaviors are still limited because of a lack of designability and frequent crystal collapse due to large stress releases during the transformations. Here, a one-dimensional hybrid perovskite semiconductor (NMEA)PbI3 (NMEA = N-methylethylammonium) was prepared by following a dimensionality reduction design principle. The crystal undergoes reversible ferroelastic and thermoelastic martensitic transformations, which are attributed to weak intermolecular interactions among the chains that easily trigger the interchain shearing movement. The actuation behavior occurring during the phase transition is very close to room temperature and demonstrated to behave as a mechanical actuator for switching. This work provides an effective approach to designing molecular actuators with promising applications in next-generation intelligence devices.

Abstract
Organic–inorganic hybrid [NH3(CH2)6NH3]ZnBr4 crystals were prepared by slow evaporation; the crystals had a monoclinic structure with space group P21/c and lattice constants a = 7.7833 Å, b = 14.5312 Å, c = 13.2396 Å, β = 90.8650°, and Z = 4. They underwent two phase transitions, at 370 K (TC1) and 430 K (TC2), as confirmed by powder X-ray diffraction patterns at various temperatures; the crystals were stable up to 600 K. The nuclear magnetic resonance spectra, obtained using the magic-angle spinning method, demonstrated changes in the 1H and 13C chemical shifts were observed near TC1, indicating changing structural environments around 1H and 13C. The spin–lattice relaxation time, T1ρ, increased rapidly near TC1 suggesting very large energy transfer, as indicated by a large thermal displacement around the 13C atoms of the cation. However, the environments of 1H, 14N, and C1 located close to NH3 in the [NH3(CH2)6NH3] cation did not influence it significantly, indicating a minor change in the N–H⋯Br hydrogen bond with the coordination geometry of the ZnBr4 anion. We believe that the information on the physiochemical properties and thermal stability of [NH3(CH2)6NH3]ZnBr4, as discussed in this study, would be key to exploring its application in stable, environment friendly solar cells. Organic–inorganic hybrid [NH3(CH2)6NH3]ZnBr4 crystals were prepared by slow evaporation; the crystals had a monoclinic structure with space group P21/c and lattice constants a = 7.7833 Å, b = 14.5312 Å, c = 13.2396 Å, β = 90.8650°, and Z = 4.![]()

Abstract
Bismuth containing hybrid molecular ferroelectrics are receiving tremendous attention in recent years owing to their stable and non-toxic composition. However, these perovskite-like structures are primarily limited to ammonium cations. Herein, we report a new phosphonium based discrete perovskite-like hybrid ferroelectric with a formula [Me(Ph)3 P]3 [Bi2 Br9 ] (MTPBB) and its mechanical energy harvesting capability. The Polarization-Electric field (P-E) measurements resulted in a well-defined ferroelectric hysteresis loop with a remnant polarization value of 2.1 μC cm-2 . Piezoresponse force microscopy experiments enabled visualization of the ferroelectric domain structure and evaluation of the piezoelectric strain coefficient (d33 ) for an MTPBB single crystal and thin film sample. Furthermore, flexible devices incorporating MTPBB in polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) matrix at various concentrations were fabricated and explored for their mechanical energy harvesting properties. The champion device with 20 wt % of MTPBB in PDMS rendered a maximum peak-to-peak open-circuit voltage of 22.9 V and a maximum power density of 7 μW cm-2 at an optimal load of 4 MΩ. Moreover, the potential of MTPBB-based devices in low power electronics was demonstrated by storing the harvested energy in various electrolytic capacitors.

Abstract
Photoelectric devices can be so widely used in various detection industries that people began to focus on its research. The research of photoelectric sensors with high performance has become an industry goal. In this paper, we prepared photodetectors using organic–inorganic hybrid semiconductor materials with narrow bandgap hexane-1,6-diammonium pentaiodobismuth (HDA-BiI5) and investigated the detector photoresponse and time-response characteristics under a single light source. The device exhibits high photoresponsivity and fast response time. The photoresponsivity can reach 1.45 × 10−3 A/W and 8.5 × 10−4 A/W under laser irradiation at 375 nm and 532 nm wavelengths, and the rise and decay times are 63 ms and 62 ms, 62 ms and 64 ms, respectively. The device has excellent performance and this work can extend the application of organic–inorganic hybrid semiconductor materials in photovoltaic and photodetectors.

Abstract
Bistable switches (electrical switching between "ON" and "OFF" bistable states) have gradually developed into an ideal category of highly intelligent materials, due to their significant applications in optical technology, signal processors, data storage and other switchable media applications in the field of electrical devices. Here, we successfully designed and synthesized [(FC6 H4 C2 H4 NH3 )2 MCl4 ]n (FC6 H4 C2 H4 NH3 + )=deprotonated 4-fluoro- phenethylamine; M=Cd (1), Mn (2)), which realized the coupling of thermo-dielectric switching characteristics, semi-conductor characteristics and photo-luminescent properties. DSC (differential scanning calorimetry) and dielectric measurements show that 1 is a sensitive dielectric bistable switch between the high dielectric (ON) and low dielectric (OFF) states. The temperature-variable single crystal structure shows that the both 1 and 2 undergo a high-temperature reversible phase transition around 383 K/380 K, which is caused by the order-disordered transformation of organic cations and the slight distortion of the inorganic framework. In particular, 1 shows outstanding switchable dielectric behavior and semiconducting properties. Further, 1 and 2 emit strong green and yellow luminescence at 527 and 595 nm, respectively.

Abstract
Low-dimensional chiral organic-inorganic hybrid metal halides have attracted a lot of attention in recent years due to their unique intrinsic properties, including having potential applications in optoelectronic and spintronic devices. However, low-dimensional chiral molecular ferroelectrics are very rare. In this paper, we report a novel zero-dimensional molecular ferroelectric (C9H14N)2CdBr4 (C9H14N+ = protonated 3-phenylpropylamine), which has obvious dielectric and thermal anomalies and shows a high Curie temperature at 395 K. It crystallizes in the P21 space group at room temperature, showing a strong CD signal, large spontaneous polarization (P s = 13.5 μC cm-2), and a clear ferroelectric domain. In addition, it also exhibits a flexible SHG response. The photoluminescence spectrum shows that 1 has broadband luminescence. At the same time, compound 1 has a wide band gap, which is mainly contributed to by the inorganic CdBr4 tetrahedron. The high tunability of low-dimensional chiral molecular ferroelectrics also opens up a way to explore multifunctional chiral materials.

Abstract
Molecular ferroelectrics of high-temperature reversible phase transitions are very rare and have attracted increasing attention in recent years. In this paper is described the successful synthesis of a novel high-temperature host-guest inclusion ferroelectric: [(C6 H5 NF3 )(18-crown-6)][BF4 ] (1) that shows a pair of reversible peaks at 348 K (heating) and 331 K (cooling) with a heat hysteresis about 17 K by differential scanning calorimetry measurements, thus indicating that 1 undergoes a reversible structural phase transition. Variable-temperature PXRD and temperature-dependent dielectric measurements further prove the phase-transition behavior of 1. The second harmonic response demonstrates that 1 belongs to a non-centrosymmetric space group at room temperature and is a good nonlinear optical material. In its semiconducting properties, 1 shows a wide optical band gap of about 4.43 eV that comes chiefly from the C, H and O atoms of the crystals. In particular, the ferroelectric measurements of 1 exhibit a typical polarization-electric hysteresis loop with a large spontaneous polarization (Ps ) of about 4.06 μC/cm2 . This finding offers an alternative pathway for designing new ferroelectric-dielectric and nonlinear optical materials and related physical properties in organic-inorganic and other hybrid crystals.

Abstract
With prosperity, decay, and another spring, molecular ferroelectrics have passed a hundred years since Valasek first discovered ferroelectricity in the molecular compound Rochelle salt. Recently, the proposal of ferroelectrochemistry has injected new vigor into this century-old research field. It should be highlighted that piezoresponse force microscopy (PFM) technique, as a non-destructive imaging and manipulation method for ferroelectric domains at the nanoscale, can significantly speed up the design rate of molecular ferroelectrics as well as enhance the ferroelectric and piezoelectric performances relying on domain engineering. Herein, we provide a brief review of the contribution of the PFM technique toward assisting the design and performance optimization of molecular ferroelectrics. Relying on the relationship between ferroelectric domains and crystallography, together with other physical characteristics such as domain switching and piezoelectricity, we believe that the PFM technique can be effectively applied to assist the design of high-performance molecular ferroelectrics equipped with multifunctionality, and thereby facilitate their practical utilization in optics, electronics, magnetics, thermotics, and mechanics among others.

Abstract
In halogenoantimonate(iii) and halogenobismuthate(iii) organic–inorganic hybrids, chains of trans-connected octahedra, trans-[MX5]∞, are considered attractive anionic structures for inducing ferroelectricity. The latter is realized by displacing the bridging halogen atoms along the chain direction – the process that changes the polarity of the whole unit. Advances in the identification of such materials have been hindered, however, by substantial difficulty in obtaining such structures. Here we investigate structural and dielectric properties of three families of compounds based on 2-mercaptopyrimidinium, 2-aminopyrimidinium, and 2-amino-4-methylpyrimidinium cations in which 8 out of 12 compounds show trans-[MX5]∞ chains in their crystal structures. Two of the compounds adopt a polar P21 space group and are potentially ferroelectric. We perform a detailed structural analysis of all compounds with trans-[MX5]∞ chains discovered by far to understand the factors that lead to the chains' formation. We reveal that the size of a cation predominantly defines the accessibility of structures with this anionic form and we provide rules for designing hybrids with trans-[MX5]∞ chains to help guide future efforts to engineer materials with interesting non-linear electrical properties. A discovered abundance of structures with rare and highly-desired anionic chains is examined to identify structural factors leading to the chains' formation.![]()

Abstract
Due to the existence of some cross properties such as SHG (second-harmonic generation), ferroelectricity, piezoelectricity, and thermoelectricity, molecular ferroelectrics have been widely used as a composite multipurpose material. Particularly, organic-inorganic molecular ferroelectrics have received much interest recently because of their unique flexible structures, friendly environment, ease of synthesis, etc. Also, these hybrids show great flexibility in band-gap engineering. Here we report a new molecular halide, [C6H13N3SbBr5]n (1; C6H13N3 = 1-(3-aminopropyl)imidazole), which experiences a unique ferroelectric to paraelectric phase transition at around 230 K from space group P21 to P21/c. Significantly, compound 1 exhibits a narrow band gap with a value of 2.52 eV, large pronounced SHG-active, perfect rectangle hysteresis loops with a large spontaneous polarization of 6.86 μC/cm2. DSC (differential scanning calorimetry) and dielectric dependence on temperature tests and the volume change before and after the phase transition show that compound 1 is characterized by a second-order phase transition. These findings will contribute to the multifunctional materials field of organic-inorganic hybrids.

Abstract
In terms of strong light-polarization coupling, ferroelectric materials with bulk photovoltaic effects afford a promising avenue for optoelectronic devices. However, due to severe polarization deterioration caused by leakage current of photoexcited carriers, most of ferroelectrics are merely capable of absorbing 8-20% of visible-light spectra. Ferroelectrics with the narrow bandgap (<2.0 eV) are still scarce, hindering their practical applications. Here, we present a lead-iodide hybrid biaxial ferroelectric, (isopentylammonium)2(ethylammonium)2Pb3I10, which shows large spontaneous polarization (~5.2 μC/cm2) and a narrow direct bandgap (~1.80 eV). Particularly, the symmetry breaking of 4/mmmFmm2 species results in its biaxial attributes, which has four equivalent polar directions. Accordingly, exceptional in-plane photovoltaic effects are exploited along the crystallographic [001] and [010] axes directions inside the crystallographic bc-plane. The coupling between ferroelectricity and photovoltaic effects endows great possibility toward self-driven photodetection. This study sheds light on future optoelectronic device applications.

Abstract
Polar hybrid perovskites have been explored for self-powered photodetection benefitting from prominent transport of photo-induced carriers and the bulk photovoltaic effect (BPVE). However, these self-powered photodetection ranges are relatively narrow depending on their intrinsic wide bandgaps (>2.08 eV), and the realization of broad-spectrum self-powered photodetection is still a difficult task. Herein, we successfully obtained a polar multilayered perovskite, (I-BA)2(MA)2Pb3I10 (IMP, MA+ = methylammonium and I-BA+ = 4-iodobutylammonium), via rational dimension reduction of CH3NH3PbI3. It features the narrowest bandgap of 1.71 eV in a BPV material. As a consequence, the integration of narrow bandgap and BPVE causes the self-powered photodetection to extend to 724 nm for IMP, and a repeatable photovoltaic current reaching 1.0 μA cm-2 is acquired with a high "on/off" ratio of ∼103 and photodetectivity (∼109 Jones) at zero bias. This innovative research provides a foothold for adjusting the physical properties of hybrid perovskites and will expand their potential for self-powered broad-spectrum detection.

Abstract
![]()
The preparation of materials featuring
more than one ferroelectric phase represents a promising strategy
for controlling electrical properties arising from spontaneous polarization,
since it offers an added advantage of temperature-dependent toggling
between two different ferroelectric states. Here, we report on the
discovery of a unique ferroelectric–ferroelectric transition
in diisopropylammonium tetrabromocadmate (DPAC, (C6H16N)2[CdBr4]) with a Tc value of 244 K, which is continuous in nature.
Both phases crystallize in the same polar orthorhombic space group, Iab2. The temperature-resolved second-harmonic-generation
(SHG) measurements using 800 nm femtosecond laser pulses attest to
the polar structure of DPAC on either side of the phase
transition (PT). The dc conductivity parameters were estimated in
both solid phases. The anionic substructure is in the form of [CdBr4]2– discrete complexes (0D), while in the
voids of the structure, the diisopropylammonium cations are embedded.
The ferroelectric properties of phases I and II have been confirmed
by the reversible pyroelectric effect as well as by P–E loop investigations. On the basis of the
dielectric responses, the molecular mechanism of the PT at 244 K has
been postulated to be of mixed type with an indication of its displacive
nature. A novel ferroelectric crystal of (C6H16N)2[CdBr4] has been synthesized,
and a description of its properties (thermal, structural, electric,
second-harmonic generation) is presented. The ferroelectric properties
in phases I and II have been successfully confirmed by the reversible
pyroelectric effect as well as by P−E hysteresis loop investigations and SHG properties.

Abstract
Ferroelectrics as crucial functional materials have attracted much interest since ferroelectricity was discovered in 1920. Herein, an unusual high-frequency ferroelectric, (CH3)2NH·HCl@Cd-MOF, was successfully obtained through a dual-step synthetic methodology. A chiral porous Cd-MOF with a channel size of 6.8 × 6.8 Å was synthesized via self-assembly of chiral Schiff-base ligands and Cd2+ ions. Subsequently, polarizable (CH3)2NH·HCl was introduced into the channels of the Cd-MOF and hence the host-guest system (CH3)2NH·HCl@Cd-MOF was formed. The as-synthesized (CH3)2NH·HCl@Cd-MOF displays obvious ferroelectricity at a high frequency of 1 kHz. Such a high-frequency ferroelectric is extremely rare among MOF-based ferroelectric materials, and the high-frequency ferroelectricity means that (CH3)2NH·HCl@Cd-MOF has potential for use in ferroelectric memories. The results again demonstrate that post-synthetic modification is a promising approach for achieving rational and precise design of ferroelectric materials.

Abstract
A molecule-based ferroelectric triethylmethylammonium tetrachloroferrate(III) ([N(C2H5)3CH3][FeCl4]) powder was designed as a multifunctional material exhibiting excellent multiple bistability. Prepared by the slow evaporation method at room temperature, the compound crystallizes in the non-centrosymmetric assembly of hexagonal symmetry (P63mc space group) which undergoes a reversible temperature-triggered phase transition pinpointed at 363 K to the centrosymmetric packing within the P63/mmc space group. Aside from the inseparable role of the symmetry-breaking process smoothly unveiled from the X-ray powder diffraction data, a striking change in the dielectric permittivity observed during the paraelectric-to-ferroelectric phase transition directly discloses the bistable dielectric behavior-an exceptionally high increase in the dielectric permittivity of about 360% at 100 kHz across the heating and cooling cycles is direct proof showing the highly desirable stimuli-responsive electric ordering in this improper ferroelectric architecture. Due to the magnetically modulated physical properties resulting in the coupling of magnetic and electric orderings, the flexible assembly of [N(C2H5)3CH3][FeCl4] could be used to boost the design and development of novel magnetoelectric devices.

Abstract
The (C2H5NH3)2[BiBr5] (EBB) crystals adopt the one-dimensional (1D) polymeric anionic form [BiBr5]∞2-, which is preferred by halobismuthates(III) exhibiting polar properties and realized in R2MX5 stoichiometry. Differential scanning calorimetry and dilatometric measurements reveal reversible structural phase transitions: at 160 K (phase I → phase II) and 120 K (phase II → phase III). The resolved crystal structures of EBB show the centrosymmetric space group in phase I (Aeam), polar (Pca21) in phase II, and polar (Aea2) in phase III. The presence of dielectric hysteresis loops in phases II and III evidence ferroelectric properties. The dielectric response [ε*(ω,T)] of EBB close to 160 K is characteristic of ferroelectrics with a critical slowing down process. The molecular mechanism of a paraelectric-ferroelectric phase transition at 160 K is explained as "order-disorder" (assigned to the dynamics of the ethylammonium cations) and dominating "displacive" (related to strong distortion of the 1D anionic network). The optical band gap obtained from UV-vis measurements is about 2.6 eV. The conduction band minimum is formed by the hybridized Bi 6p and Br 4p states. An analysis of the CSD results for haloantimonates(III) and halobismuthates(III) ferroelectrics characterized by [MX4]-, [M2X9]3-, [MX5]2-, and [M2X11]5- anions is given.

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
Molecular ferroelectrics have displayed a promising future since they are light-weight, flexible, environmentally friendly and easily synthesized, compared to traditional inorganic ferroelectrics. However, how to precisely design a molecular ferroelectric from a non-ferroelectric phase transition molecular system is still a great challenge. Here we designed and constructed a molecular ferroelectric by double regulation of the anion and cation in a simple crown ether clathrate, 4, [K(18-crown-6)]+ [PF6 ]- . By replacing K+ and PF6 - with H3 O+ and [FeCl4 ]- respectively, we obtained a new molecular ferroelectric [H3 O(18-crown-6)]+ [FeCl4 ]- , 1. Compound 1 undergoes a para-ferroelectric phase transition near 350 K with symmetry change from P21/n to the Pmc21 space group. X-ray single-crystal diffraction analysis suggests that the phase transition was mainly triggered by the displacement motion of H3 O+ and [FeCl4 ]- ions and twist motion of 18-crown-6 molecule. Strikingly, compound 1 shows high a Curie temperature (350 K), ultra-strong second harmonic generation signals (nearly 8 times of KDP), remarkable dielectric switching effect and large spontaneous polarization. We believe that this research will pave the way to design and build high-quality molecular ferroelectrics as well as their application in smart materials.
