Abstract
Polarization photodetection taking advantage of the anisotropy of 2D materials shines brilliantly in optoelectronic fields owing to differentiating optical information. However, the previously reported polarization detections are mostly dependent on external power sources, which is not conducive to device integration and energy conservation. Herein, a 2D polar perovskite (CBA)2CsPb2Br7 (CCPB, CBA = 4-chlorobenzyllamine) has been successfully synthesized, which shows anticipated bulk photovoltaic effect (BPVE) with an open-circuited photovoltage up to ≈0.2 V. Devices based on CCPB monomorph fulfill a fascinating self-powered polarized photodetection with a large polarization ratio of 2.7 at room temperature. Moreover, CCPB features a high phase-transition temperature (≈475 K) which prompts such self-powered polarized photodetection in a large temperature window of device operation, since BPVE generated by spontaneous polarization can only exist in the polar structure prior to the phase transition. Further computational investigation reveals the introduction of CBA+ with a large dipole moment contributes to quite large polarization (17.5 µC cm-2) and further super high phase transition temperature of CCPB. This study will promote the application of 2D perovskite materials for self-powered polarized photodetection in high-temperature conditions.

Abstract
Two-dimensional organic-inorganic halide perovskites have emerged as promising candidates for a multitude of optoelectronic technologies, owing to their versatile structure and electronic properties. The optical and electronic properties are harmoniously integrated with both the inorganic metal halide octahedral slab, and the organic spacer layer. The inorganic octahedral layers can also assemble into periodically stacked nanoplatelets, which are interconnected by the organic ammonium cation, resulting in the formation of a superlattice or superstructure. In this perspective, we explore the structural, electronic, and optical properties of lead-free hybrid halides, and the layered halide perovskite single crystals and nanostructures, expanding our understanding of the diverse applications enabled by these versatile structures. The optical properties of the layered halide perovskite single crystals and superlattices are a function of the organic spacer layer thickness, the metal center with either divalent or a combination of monovalent and trivalent cations, and the halide composition. The distinct absorption and emission features are guided by the structural deformation, electron-phonon coupling, and the polaronic effect. Among the diverse optoelectronic possibilities, we have focused on the photodetection capability of layered halide perovskite single crystals, and elucidated the descriptors such as excitonic band gap, effective mass, carrier mobility, Rashba splitting, and the spin texture that decides the direct component of the optical transitions.

Abstract
Low-dimensional perovskites afford improved stability against moisture, heat, and ionic migration. However, the low dimensionality typically results in a wide bandgap and strong electron-phonon coupling, which is undesirable for optoelectronic applications. Herein, semiconducting A-site organic cation engineering by electron-acceptor bipyridine (bpy) cations (2,2'-bpy2+ and 4,4'-bpy2+) is employed to optimize band structure in low-dimensional perovskites. Benefiting from the merits of lower lowest unoccupied molecular orbital (LUMO) energy for 4,4'-bpy2+ cation, the corresponding (4,4'-bpy)PbI4 is endowed with a smaller bandgap (1.44 eV) than the (CH3NH3)PbI3 (1.57 eV) benchmark. Encouragingly, an intramolecular type II band alignment formation between inorganic Pb-I octahedron anions and bpy2+ cations favors photogenerated electron-hole pairs separation. In addition, a shortening distance between inorganic Pb-I octahedral chains in (4,4'-bpy)PbI4 single crystal (SC) can effectively promote carrier transfer. As a result, a self-powered photodetector based on (4,4'-bpy)PbI4 SC exhibits 131 folds higher on/off ratio (3807) than the counterpart of (2,2'-bpy)2Pb3I10 SC (29). The presented result provides an effective strategy for exporting novel organic cation-based low-dimensional perovskite SC for high-performance optoelectronic devices.

Abstract
Organic-inorganic hybrid iodobismuthate perovskites have become promising semiconductive materials for their environmentally friendly and light-harvesting characteristics. However, their low-dimensional bismuth-iodide skeletons result in poor charge-separation efficiency, limiting their application in optoelectronic devices. To address this issue, the donor-acceptor (D-A) heterostructures have been introduced to the iodobismuthate hybrid materials by incorporating an electron-deficient N,N'-bis(4-aminoethyl)-1,4,5,8-naphthalene diimide (NDIEA) as the electron acceptor and organic counterpart. Five naphthalenediimide/iodobismuthate hybrid heterostructures, named (H2NDIEA)1.5·Bi2I9·3DMF (1), H2NDIEA·[Bi2I8(DMF)2]·2DMF (2), (H2NDIEA)2·Bi4I16·2H2O·4MeOH (3), (H2NDIEA)2·Bi4I16·8H2O (4), and [(H2NDIEA)2·Bi6I22]n·4nH2O (5) (DMF = N,N-dimethylformamide), were synthesized. Their crystal structures, water stabilities, charge-separated behaviors, and electrical properties have been studied through experimental and computational investigations. The results revealed that hybrids 3-5 exhibited high water resistance attributed to their tightly packed structures and robust H-bonds between solvent molecules and organic-inorganic supramolecular frameworks. Density functional theory calculations confirmed characteristic type-IIa band alignments of all the five hybrids, facilitating to the photoinduced charge separation. Moreover, the closer contact caused by the strong anion-π interactions between electron donors and acceptors in hybrid 5 leads to the long-lived charge-separated states and improved electrical properties compared to the other hybrids.

Abstract
Rational design is an important approach to consider in the development of low-dimensional hybrid organic-inorganic perovskites (HOIPs). In this study, 1-butyl-1-methyl pyrrolidinium (BMP), 1-(3-aminopropyl)imidazole (API), and 1-butyl-3-methyl imidazolium (BMI) serve as prototypical ionic liquid components in bismuth-based HOIPs. Element-sensitive X-ray absorption spectroscopy measurements of BMPBiBr4 and APIBiBr5 reveal distinct resonant excitation profiles across the N K-edges, where contrasting peak shifts are observed. These 1D-HOIPs exhibit a large Stokes shift due to the small polaron contribution, as probed by photoluminescence spectroscopy at room temperature. Interestingly, the incorporation of a small fraction of tin (Sn) into the APIBiBr5 (Sn/Bi mole ratio of 1:3) structure demonstrates a strong spectral weight transfer accompanied by a fast decay lifetime (2.6 ns). These phenomena are the direct result of Sn-substitution in APIBiBr5, decreasing the small polaron effect. By changing the active ionic liquid, the electronic interactions and optical responses can be moderately tuned by alteration of their intermolecular interaction between the semiconducting inorganic layers and organic moieties.

Abstract
Halide perovskites have attracted a great amount of attention owing to their unique materials chemistry, excellent electronic properties, and low-cost manufacturing. Two-dimensional (2D) halide perovskites, originating from three-dimensional (3D) perovskite structures, are structurally more diverse and therefore create functional possibilities beyond 3D perovskites. The much less restrictive size constraints on the organic component of these hybrid materials particularly provide an exciting platform for designing unprecedented materials and functionalities at the molecular level. In this Perspective, we discuss the concept and recent development of a sub-class of 2D perovskites, namely, organic semiconductor-incorporated perovskites (OSiPs). OSiPs combine the electronic functionality of organic semiconductors with the soft and dynamic halide perovskite lattice, offering opportunities for tailoring the energy landscape, lattice and carrier dynamics, and electron/ion transport properties for various fundamental studies, as well as device applications. Specifically, we summarize recent advances in the design, synthesis, and structural analysis of OSiPs with various organic conjugated moieties as well as the application of OSiPs in photovoltaics, light-emitting devices, and transistors. Lastly, challenges and further opportunities for OSiPs in molecular design, integration of novel functionality, film quality, and stability issues are addressed.

Abstract
Despite the demonstrated high-efficiency of solar cells and light-emitting devices based on two-dimensional (2D) perovskites, intrinsic stability of the 2D perovskites is yet far from satisfactory. In this work, we find the 2D (BA)2PbI4perovskite crystals rapidly degrade in the ambient conditions and the photoluminescence (PL) nearly completely quenches in 6 d. Moreover, the PL shoulder band due to defects and absorption band of PbI2gradually rise during degradation, suggesting the precipitation of PbI2. Besides, rod structures are observed in the degraded crystals, which are attributed to the formation of one-dimensional (1D) (BA)3PbI5perovskites. And the degradation can be largely retarded by decreasing the humidity during storage. Therefore, a chemical reaction for the degradation of (BA)2PbI4is proposed, revealing the interactions between water molecules and undercoordinated defects are very critical for understanding the degradation. Enlightened by these findings, dimethyl itaconate (DI) treatment is developed to passivate the defects and block the intrusion of moisture to improve the stability of the (BA)2PbI4. After storage in the ambient environment for 16 d, the DI treated (BA)2PbI4only shows a slight surface degradation without formation of any nanorod-like structures, and the PL intensity retains about 70%. Therefore, our systematic study provides a comprehensive understanding on the degradation dynamics of 2D perovskites, which will promote future development of intrinsically stable 2D perovskites.

Abstract
ConspectusLead halide perovskites are under the spotlight of current research due to their potential for efficient and cost-effective next-generation optoelectronic devices. The unique photonic and electronic properties of these solution-processable materials brought them to the forefront of materials science. However, the toxicity and instability of lead-based perovskites are the major hurdles for their commercialization. These issues initiated an effort towards the development of environmentally friendly, lead-free perovskites. In this context, bismuth halide perovskites (BHPs) were ideal rivals for lead-based congeners due to their excellent chemical stability, lower toxicity, and structural versatility. Understanding the crystal structure and optoelectronic properties of BHPs is crucial for designing them for specific, tailor-made applications. This Account aims to review our recent research progress on the role of functional organic spacer cations in modulating the electronic confinements, optical properties, and photoconductivity of BHPs. We have employed a comprehensive experimental and theoretical investigation to probe the intriguing optical and electronic properties of these materials. Our findings on the structure-optoelectronic property correlations will be valuable guidelines for the rational selection of organic spacer cations in designing BHPs featuring low exciton binding energy, narrow optical bandgap, enhanced visible light absorption, and high photoconductivity. One of our key findings is that by increasing the electron affinity of the organic spacer ligands, photoconductivity and visible light absorption of BHPs could be significantly enhanced. We hope that the fundamental level understanding of the photophysical properties discussed in this Account will lead to new design rules for developing high-performance BHP materials.

Abstract
We have obtained a series of low-dimensional hybrid perovskitoids (often referred to as perovskites) based on lead bromide. As organic cations, the derivatives of polyaromatic and conjugated molecules, such as anthracene, pyrene and (E)-stilbene, were chosen to form charge-transfer complexes with various organic acceptors for use as highly tunable components of hybrid perovskite solar cells. X-ray diffraction analysis showed these crystalline materials to be new 1D- and pseudo-layered 0D-perovskitoids with lead bromide octahedra featuring different sharing modes, such as in unusual mini-rods of four face- and edge-shared octahedra. Thanks to the low dimensionality, they can be of use in another type of optoelectronic device, photodetectors.

Abstract
Bismuth-based zero-dimensional perovskites garner high research interest because of their advantages, such as excellent moisture stability and lower toxicity in comparison to lead-based congeners. However, the wide optical bandgap (>2 eV) and poor photoconductivity of these materials are the bottlenecks for their optoelectronic applications. Herein, we report a combined experimental and theoretical study of the structural features and optoelectronic properties of two novel and stable zero-dimensional bismuth perovskites: (biphenyl bis(methylammonium))1.5BiI6·2H2O (BPBI) and (naphthalene diimide bis(ethylammonium))1.5BiI6·2H2O (NDBI). NDBI features a remarkably narrower bandgap (1.82 eV) than BPBI (2.06 eV) because of the significant orbital contribution of self-assembled naphthalene diimide cations at the band edges of NDBI. Further, the FP-TRMC analysis revealed that the photoconductivity of NDBI is about 3.7-fold greater than that of BPBI. DFT calculations showed that the enhanced photoconductivity in NDBI arises from its type-IIa band alignment, whereas type-Ib alignment was seen in BPBI.
