Abstract
2D metal halide perovskites (MHPs), mainly the studied Ruddlesden-Popper (RP) and Dion-Jacobson (DJ) phases, have gained enormous popularity as optoelectronic materials owing to their self-assembled multiple quantum well structures, tunable semiconducting properties, and improved structural stability compared to their bulk 3D counterparts. The performance of polycrystalline thin film devices is limited due to the formation of defects and trap states. However, as studied so far, single crystal-based devices can provide a better platform to improve device performance and investigate their fundamental properties more reliably. This Review provides the first comprehensive report on the emerging field of RP and DJ perovskite single crystals and their use in visible light photodetectors of varied device configurations. This Review structurally summarizes the 2D MHP single crystal growth methods and the parameters that control the crystal growth process. In addition, the characterization techniques used to investigate their crystal properties are discussed. The review further provides detailed insights into the working mechanisms as well as the operational performance of 2D MHP single crystal photodetector devices. In the end, to outline the present status and future directions, this Review provides a forward-looking perspective concerning the technical challenges and bottlenecks associated with the developing field of RP and DJ perovskite single crystals. Therefore, this timely review will provide a detailed overview of the fast-growing field of 2D MHP single crystal-based photodetectors as well as ignite new concepts for a wide range of applications including solar cells, photocatalysts, solar H2 production, neuromorphic bioelectronics, memory devices, etc.

Abstract
Halide perovskite materials have recently been recognised as powerful ferroelectric and piezoelectric materials with applications in the energy harvesting arena, but their experimental proof is very limited. We achieved strong intrinsic piezoelectricity in the lead-free inorganic double perovskite Cs2AgBiBr6 at room temperature and utilized it for mechanical energy harvesting, with a piezoelectric co-efficient (d33) of 12.7 pC N-1. Hysteresis loop and structural analyses offered further validation for the substantial ferroelectric features of the as-synthesised double perovskite. Density functional theory (DFT) calculations revealed the presence of anharmonic phonon soft modes in tetragonal Cs2AgBiBr6 due to dynamic instability, which resulted in piezoelectricity. Under an optimal pressure of ≈25 kPa, a Cs2AgBiBr6 thin film-based piezoelectric nanogenerator device delivered instantaneous output values of ≈45 V and ≈200 nA. The strain-sensitive responses of the device were also exemplified to identify specific body motions from the detected instantaneous output values. The energy obtained from the device is shown to be effective for capacitor charging and commercial light-emitting diode (LED) lighting. Our study provides significant insights into the dielectric behaviour of materials as well as piezo- and ferroelectric behaviours, which are crucial for the development of modern electronic and energy harvesting devices.

Abstract
Over the past years, the application potential of ferroelectric nanomaterials with unique physical properties for modern electronics is highlighted to a large extent. However, it is relatively challenging to fabricate inorganic ferroelectric nanomaterials, which is a process depending on a vacuum atmosphere at high temperatures. As significant complements to inorganic ferroelectric nanomaterials, the nanomaterials of molecular ferroelectrics are rarely reported. Here a low-cost room-temperature antisolvent method is used to synthesize free-standing 2D organic-inorganic hybrid perovskite (OIHP) ferroelectric nanosheets (NSs), that is, (CHA)2PbBr4 NSs (CHA = cyclohexylammonium), with an average lateral size of 357.59 nm and a thickness ranging from 10 to 70 nm. This method shows high repeatability and produces NSs with excellent crystallinity. Moreover, ferroelectric domains in single NSs can be clearly visualized and manipulated using piezoresponse force microscopy (PFM). The domain switching and PFM-switching spectroscopy indicate the robust in-plane ferroelectricity of the NSs. This work not only introduces a feasible, low-cost, and scalable method for preparing molecular ferroelectric NSs but also promotes the research on molecular ferroelectric nanomaterials.

Abstract
2D lead halide perovskites showcase diverse electrical and optoelectrical properties due to their adaptable structural distortion, which dictates the symmetry characteristics of the material. To accommodate the geometric shape of the cation, the inorganic layer of the 2D perovskite often undergoes specific distortions such as lead-halide bond length elongation/compression and lead atom displacement. The resultant distortion manifests as a quadrilateral shape formed by Pb atoms from four adjacent four octahedrons. The degree of distortion increases as the quadrilateral deviates further from a square shape and vice versa. This quadrilateral shape not only visually represents the magnitude of distortion but also confirms its direction. During the transition from kite to square distortion under external stimuli, the positions of the Pb atoms vividly illustrate the symmetry-breaking process, corresponding to a shift from high to low symmetry states. The electrical and optoelectronic properties, including ferroelectricity, pyroelectricity, piezoelectricity, nonlinear optical properties, and characteristics related to bulky photovoltaic effects, some of them exhibit direction dependence nature. This perspective employed a visible structural distortion approach to elucidate symmetry breaking and coupling distortion transitions with eight optoelectronic physical properties in 2D layered perovskite. We review recent research advancements and outline current challenges that help us to understand the structure-property relationship of 2D perovskite.

Abstract
Since the concept of "multiferroic" was first proposed in 1968, the coupling effect between different ferroic orders has attracted great interest in energy, information, and biomedical fields. However, the fully ferroelectric-fully ferroelastic effect has never been experimentally observed in hybrid perovskites, even though this effect was predicted to exist half a century ago. Realizing such cross-linking effects of polarization vectors and strain tensors has always been a huge challenge because of the complex difference in these two ferroic origins. Here, we report a multiferroic with full ferroelectricity and full ferroelasticity in two-dimensional (2D) hybrid perovskites based on ferroelectrochemistry. The dynamic molecular reorientations endow (cyclohexanemethylaminium)2PbCl4 with a desired symmetry change of 4̅2mFmm2 at a Curie temperature of 411.8 K. More strikingly, the switchable evolution of ferroelastic domains was directly observed under the control of either electric or mechanical fields, which is the first experimental observation of a fully ferroelectric-fully ferroelastic effect in hybrid perovskites. This work would provide new insights into understanding the intrinsic cross-linking mechanism between ferroelectricity and ferroelasticity toward the development of multichannel interactive microelectronic devices.

Abstract
Lead halide molecular ferroelectrics represent an important class of luminescent ferroelectrics, distinguished by their high chemical and structural tunability, excellent processability and distinctive luminescent characteristics. However, their inherent instability, prone to decomposition upon exposure to moisture and light, hinders their broader ferroelectric applications. Herein, for the first time, we present a series of isoreticular metal-organic framework (MOF)-type lead halide luminescent ferroelectrics, demonstrating exceptional robustness under ambient conditions for at least 15 months and even when subjected to aqueous boiling conditions. Unlike conventional metal-oxo secondary building units (SBUs) in MOFs adopting highly centrosymmetric structure with limited structural distortion, our lead halide-based MOFs occupy structurally deformable [Pb2X]+ (X=Cl-/Br-/I-) SBUs that facilitate a c-axis-biased displacement of Pb2+ centers and substantially contribute to thermoinducible structural transformation. Importantly, this class of MOF-type lead halide ferroelectrics undergo ferroelectric-to-paraelectric phase transitions with remarkably high Curie temperature of up to 505 K, superior to most of molecular ferroelectrics. Moreover, the covalent bonding between phosphorescent organic component and the light-harvesting inorganic component achieves efficient spin-orbit coupling and intersystem crossing, resulting in long-lived afterglow emission. The compelling combination of high stability, ferroelectricity and afterglow emission exhibited by lead halide MOFs opens up many potential opportunities in energy-conversion applications.

Abstract
2D hybrid organic-inorganic halide perovskites emerge as a new class of 2D semiconductors with the potential to combine excellent optoelectronic properties with symmetry-enabled properties such as ferroelectricity. Although many lead-based ferroelectric 2D halide perovskites are reported, there is yet to be a conclusive report of ferroelectricity in tin-based 2D perovskites. Here, the structures and properties of a new series of 2D Dion-Jacobson (DJ) Sn perovskites: (4AMP)SnI4, (4AMP)(MA)Sn2I7, and (4AMP)(FA)Sn2I7 (4AMP = 4-(aminomethyl)piperidinium, MA = methylammonium, and FA = formamidinium), are reported. Structural characterization reveals that (4AMP)SnI4 is polar with in-plane spontaneous polarization whereas (4AMP)(MA)Sn2I7 and (4AMP)(FA)Sn2I7 are centrosymmetric. Further, (4AMP)SnI4 displays second harmonic generation (SHG) and polarization-electric field hysteresis measurements confirm it is ferroelectric with a spontaneous polarization of 10.0 µC cm-2 at room temperature. (4AMP)SnI4 transitions into a centrosymmetric structure above 367 K. As the first direct experimental observation of the spontaneous ferroelectric polarization of a Sn-based 2D hybrid perovskite, this work opens up environmentally friendly 2D tin halide perovskites for ferroelectricity and other physical property studies.

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.

Abstract
In recent years, the phenomenon of optical second harmonic generation (SHG) has attracted significant attention as a pivotal nonlinear optical effect in research. Notably, in low-dimensional materials (LDMs), SHG detection has become an instrumental tool for elucidating nonlinear optical properties due to their pronounced second-order susceptibility and distinct electronic structure. This review offers an exhaustive overview of the generation process and experimental configurations for SHG in such materials. It underscores the latest advancements in harnessing SHG as a sensitive probe for investigating the nonlinear optical attributes of these materials, with a particular focus on its pivotal role in unveiling electronic structures, bandgap characteristics, and crystal symmetry. By analyzing SHG signals, researchers can glean invaluable insights into the microscopic properties of these materials. Furthermore, this paper delves into the applications of optical SHG in imaging and time-resolved experiments. Finally, future directions and challenges toward the improvement in the NLO in LDMs are discussed to provide an outlook in this rapidly developing field, offering crucial perspectives for the design and optimization of pertinent devices.

Abstract
Hybrid organic-inorganic perovskites (HOIPs) afford highly versatile structure design and lattice dimensionalities; thus, they are actively researched as material platforms for the tailoring of ferroic behaviors. Unlike single-phase organic or inorganic materials, the interlayer coupling between organic and inorganic components in HOIPs allows the modification of strain and symmetry by chirality transfer or lattice distortion, thereby enabling the coexistence of ferroic orders. This review focuses on the principles for engineering one or multiple ferroic orders in HOIPs, and the conditions for achieving multiferroicity and magnetoelectric properties. The prospects of multilevel ferroic modulation, chiral spin textures, and spin orbitronics in HOIPs are also presented.

Abstract
Transient implantable piezoelectric materials are desirable for biosensing, drug delivery, tissue regeneration, and antimicrobial and tumor therapy. For use in the human body, they must show flexibility, biocompatibility, and biodegradability. These requirements are challenging for conventional inorganic piezoelectric oxides and piezoelectric polymers. We discovered high piezoelectricity in a molecular crystal HOCH2(CF2)3CH2OH [2,2,3,3,4,4-hexafluoropentane-1,5-diol (HFPD)] with a large piezoelectric coefficient d33 of ~138 picocoulombs per newton and piezoelectric voltage constant g33 of ~2450 × 10-3 volt-meters per newton under no poling conditions, which also exhibits good biocompatibility toward biological cells and desirable biodegradation and biosafety in physiological environments. HFPD can be composite with polyvinyl alcohol to form flexible piezoelectric films with a d33 of 34.3 picocoulombs per newton. Our material demonstrates the ability for molecular crystals to have attractive piezoelectric properties and should be of interest for applications in transient implantable electromechanical devices.

Abstract
Here, electrical conductivity and explosive sensing properties of multifunctional chromone-Cd(II)-based coordination polymers (CPs) (1-4) have been explored. The presence of different pseudohalide linkers, thiocyanate ions, and dicyanamide ions resulted in 1D and 3D architecture in the CPs. Thin film devices developed from CPs 1-4 (complex-based Schottky devices, CSD1, CSD2, CSD3, and CSD4, respectively) showed semiconductor behavior. Their conductivity values increased under photo illumination (1.37 × 10-5, 1.85 × 10-5, 1.61 × 10-5, and 2.01 × 10-5 S m-1 under dark conditions and 5.06 × 10-5, 8.78 × 10-5, 7.26 × 10-5, and 10.21 × 10-5 S m-1 under light). The nature of the I-V plots of these thin film devices under light irradiation and dark are nonlinear rectifying, which has been observed in Schottky barrier diodes (SBDs). All four CPs (1-4) exhibited highly selective fluorescence quenching-based sensing properties toward well-known explosives, 2,4-dinitrophenol (DNP) and 2,4,6-trinitrophenol (TNP). The limit of detection (LOD) values are 55, 28, 27, and 31 μM for TNP and 78, 44, 32, and 41 μM for DNP for complexes 1-4, respectively. A structure property correlation has been established to explain optoelectronic and explosive sensing properties.

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.

Abstract
Two-dimensional (2D) hybrid organic-inorganic perovskites (HOIPs) with enhanced stability, high tunability, and strong spin-orbit coupling have shown great potential in vast applications. Here, we extend the already rich functionality of 2D HOIPs to a new territory, realizing topological superconductivity and Majorana modes for fault-tolerant quantum computation. Especially, we predict that room-temperature ferroelectric BA2PbCl4 (BA for benzylammonium) exhibits topological nodal-point superconductivity (NSC) and gapless Majorana modes on selected edges and ferroelectric domain walls when proximity-coupled to an s-wave superconductor and an in-plane Zeeman field, attractive for experimental verification and application. Since NSC is protected by spatial symmetry of 2D HOIPs, we envision more exotic topological superconducting states to be found in this class of materials due to their diverse noncentrosymmetric space groups, which may open a new avenue in the fields of HOIPs and topological superconductivity.

Abstract
Switchable spontaneous polarization is the vital property of ferroelectrics, which leads to other key physical properties such as piezoelectricity, pyroelectricity, and nonlinear optical effects, etc. Recently, organic-inorganic hybrid perovskites with 2D layered structure have become an emerging branch of ferroelectric materials. However, most of the 2D hybrid ferroelectrics own relatively low polarizations (<15 µC cm-2 ). Here, a strategy to enhance the polarization of these hybrid perovskites by using ortho-, meta-, para-halogen substitution is developed. Based on (benzylammonium)2 PbCl4 (BZACL), the para-chlorine substituted (4-chlorobenzylammonium)2 PbCl4 (4-CBZACL) ferroelectric semiconductor shows a large spontaneous polarization (23.3 µC cm-2 ), which is 79% larger than the polarization of BZACL. This large enhancement of polarization is successfully explained via ab initio calculations. The study provides a convenient and efficient strategy to promote the ferroelectric property in the hybrid perovskite family.

Abstract
Photodetectors (PDs), as functional devices based on photon-to-electron conversion, are an indispensable component for the next-generation Internet of Things system. The research of advanced and efficient PDs that meet the diverse demands is becoming a major task. Ferroelectric materials can develop a unique spontaneous polarization due to the symmetry-breaking of the unit cell, which is switchable under an external electric field. Ferroelectric polarization field has the intrinsic characteristics of non-volatilization and rewritability. Introducing ferroelectrics to effectively manipulate the band bending and carrier transport can be non-destructive and controllable in the ferroelectric-optoelectronic hybrid systems. Hence, ferroelectric integration offers a promising strategy for high-performance photoelectric detection. This paper reviews the fundamentals of optoelectronic and ferroelectric materials, and their interactions in hybrid photodetection systems. The first section introduces the characteristics and applications of typical optoelectronic and ferroelectric materials. Then, the interplay mechanisms, modulation effects, and typical device structures of ferroelectric-optoelectronic hybrid systems are discussed. Finally, in summary and perspective section, the progress of ferroelectrics integrated PDs is summed up and the challenges of ferroelectrics in the field of optoelectronics are considered.

Abstract
Chiral perovskites have garnered significant attention, owing to their chiroptical properties and emerging applications. Current fabrication methods often involve complex chemical synthesis routes. Herein, an alternative approach for introducing chirality into nonchiral hybrid organic-inorganic perovskites (HOIPs) using nanotemplates composed of cholesteric polymeric networks is proposed. This method eliminates the need for additional molecular design. In this process, HOIP precursors are incorporated into a porous cholesteric polymer film, and two-dimensional (2D) HOIPs grow inside the nanopores. Circularly polarized light emission (CPLE) was observed even though the selective reflection band of the cholesteric polymer films containing a representative HOIP deviated from the emission wavelength of the 2D HOIP. This effect was confirmed by the induced circular dichroism (CD) observed in the absorbance band of the HOIP. The observed CPLE and CD are attributed to the chirality induced by the template in the originally nonchiral 2D HOIP. Additionally, the developed 2D HOIP exhibited a long exciton lifetime and good stability under harsh conditions. These findings provide valuable insights into the development and design of innovative optoelectronic materials.

Abstract
An organic-inorganic hybrid ferroelectric, (C6H5CH2CH2NH3)2[HgI4], undergoes an exceptional structural phase transition near room temperature, triggered by a flip of half the organic cations and an order-disorder transition of the inorganic anions, and may be regarded as a displacive-type ferroelectric. This finding provides a new structural phase transition mechanism in molecule-based ferroelectrics.

Abstract
Metal halide perovskites (MHPs) are emerging photocatalyst materials that can enable sustainable solar-to-chemical energy conversion by virtue of their broad absorption spectra, effective separation/transport of photogenerated carriers, and solution processability. Although preliminary studies show the excellent photocatalytic activities of MHPs, their intrinsic structural instability due to the low formation energy and soft ionic nature is an open challenge for their practical applications. This review discusses the latest understanding of the stability issue and strategies to overcome this issue for MHP-based photocatalysis. First, the origin of the instability issue at atomic levels and the design rules for robust structures are analyzed and elucidated. This is then followed by presenting several different material design strategies for stability enhancement, including reaction medium modification, material surface protection, structural dimensionality engineering, and chemical composition engineering. Emphases are placed on understanding the effects of these strategies on photocatalytic stability as well as the possible structure-performance correlation. Finally, the possible future research directions for pursuing stable and efficient MHP photocatalysts in order to accelerate their technological maturity on a practical scale are outlined. With that, it is hoped to provide readers a valuable snapshot of this rapidly developing and exciting field.

Abstract
Lead halide perovskites and related main-group halogenido metalates offer unique semiconductor properties and diverse applications in photovoltaics, solid-state lighting, and photocatalysis. Recent advances in incorporating chiral organic cations have led to the emergence of chiral metal-halide semiconductors with intriguing properties, such as chiroptical activity and chirality-induced spin selectivity, enabling the generation and detection of circularly polarized light and spin-polarized electrons for applications in spintronics and quantum information. However, understanding the structural origin of chiroptical activity remains challenging due to macroscopic factors and experimental limitations. In this work, we present an achiral perovskite derivative [Cu2(pyz)3(MeCN)2][Bi3I11] (CuBiI; pyz = pyrazine; MeCN = acetonitrile), which exhibits remarkable circular dichroism (CD) attributed to the material's noncentrosymmetric nature. CuBiI features a unique structure as a poly-threaded iodido bismuthate, with [Bi3I11]2- chains threaded through a cationic two-dimensional coordination polymer. The material possesses a low, direct optical band gap of 1.70 eV. Notably, single crystals display both linear and circular optical activity with a large anisotropy factor of up to 0.16. Surprisingly, despite the absence of chiral building blocks, CuBiI exhibits a significant degree of circularly polarized photoluminescence, reaching 4.9%. This value is comparable to the results achieved by incorporating chiral organic molecules into perovskites, typically ranging from 3-10% at zero magnetic field. Our findings provide insights into the macroscopic origin of CD and offer design guidelines for the development of materials with high chiroptical activity.

Abstract
Self-powered photodetectors (PDs) have the advantages of no external power requirement, wireless operation, and long life. Spontaneous ferroelectric polarizations can significantly increase built-in electric field intensity, showing great potential in self-powered photodetection. Moreover, ferroelectrics possess pyroelectric and piezoelectric properties, beneficial for enhancing self-powered PDs. 2D metal halide perovskites (MHPs), which have ferroelectric properties, are suitable for fabricating high-performance self-powered PDs. However, the research on 2D metal halide perovskites ferroelectrics focuses on growing bulk crystals. Herein, 2D ferroelectric perovskite films with mixed spacer cations for self-powered PDs are demonstrated by mixing Ruddlesden-Popper (RP)-type and Dion-Jacobson (DJ)-type perovskite. The (BDA0.7 (BA2 )0.3 )(EA)2 Pb3 Br10 film possesses, overall, the best film qualities with the best crystalline quality, lowest trap density, good phase purity, and obvious ferroelectricity. Based on the ferro-pyro-phototronic effect, the PD at 360 nm exhibits excellent photoelectric properties, with an ultrahigh peak responsivity greater than 93 A W-1 and a detectivity of 2.5 × 1015 Jones, together with excellent reproducibility and stability. The maximum responsivities can be modulated by piezo-phototronic effect with an effective enhancement ratio of 480%. This work will open up a new route of designing MHP ferroelectric films for high-performance PDs and offers the opportunity to utilize it for various optoelectronics applications.

Abstract
Ferroelectric perovskites, where ferroelectricity is embedded in the structure, are being considered for different device applications. In this study, we introduce Cs2PbI2Cl2, an all-inorganic 2D Ruddlesden-Popper (RP) halide perovskite, as a ferroelectric material suitable for pyro-phototronic applications. Thin-films of the all-inorganic perovskite are successfully cast, and they demonstrate ferroelectric properties. Unlike hybrid materials, the ferroelectricity in Cs2PbI2Cl2 does not rely on the organic moiety possessing an electric dipole moment. Instead, the 2D-layer-forming octahedra are twisted and tilted due to a distortion in the bond lengths, leading to the emergence of spontaneous electric polarization. Based on the properties, we fabricate p-i-n heterojunctions by integrating the perovskite with carrier-transport layers. To determine the band-energies of the materials, scanning tunneling spectroscopy and Kelvin probe force microscopy are employed. The band-edges evidence a type-II band-alignment at both interfaces, enabling the material to exhibit both photovoltaic and pyroelectric behaviors when subjected to pulsed illumination. The devices based on the all-inorganic RP perovskite developed in this study exhibit pyro-phototronic effects and serve as self-powered photodetectors without any need for an external bias.

Abstract
Two-dimensional (2D) halide perovskites exhibit unique structural and optical properties because large organic molecular cations distort the perovskite structure and the excitons confined in the 2D layers are stable. Here, we report the temperature dependences of the absorption spectra, second harmonic generation (SHG) intensity, and lattice constants of 2D perovskite (BA)2(EA)2Pb3I10 single crystals, where BA is n-butylammonium and EA is ethylammonium. We found that the Urbach tail of the absorption spectrum significantly changes at around 200 K and that the change is correlated with the SHG intensity and the in-plane lattice distortion. We concluded that a random distribution of spontaneous polarizations in the ferroelectric phase modifies the linewidth of the band-edge exciton transition and is the cause of the anomalous temperature dependence of the steepness parameter of the Urbach tail.

Abstract
Ferroelectric materials with crystal symmetry transition from single phase to multiphase coexistence exhibit anomalous photosensitive properties. The optical properties (optical band gap and photosensitive) found on non-centrosymmetric and centrosymmetric systems achieved research interest because of their interesting behavior. In this regard, the lead-free polycrystalline Ba1-xSrxTiO3(BSTO, 0⩽x⩽0.3) has been synthesized to explore its crystal structure, dielectric, light absorption, and photocurrent sensing properties for various applications. Both experimental and theoretical studies on BSTO (0⩽x⩽0.3) ceramics confirm the crystal symmetry transition with the reduction of band gap as compared to pristine BaTiO3. This crystal symmetry transition plays an important role in varying the various physical properties as it involves the transition from the polar phase to the non-polar phase. The optical band gap has been estimated experimentally by the Tauc plot method and found that there is a small variation of energy band gap from 3.615 eV to 3.212 eV with Sr substitution. The highest dielectric constant was found to be 5327 at lower frequency on Ba0.76Sr0.24TiO3after that for further increase in Sr concentration the dielectric constant decreases because of the introduction of the non-polar phase. A strong correlation between crystal structure and physical properties (dielectric, optical, etc.) has been observed. The photocurrent of the samples is significant which reveals that the sample is influenced by the photons. In a nutshell, the present study deepens the understanding of the correlation between crystal structure and various physical properties of BSTO and, hence provides an idea of required design parameters to construct a ferroelectric system for better photosensitive nature suitable for device applications.

Abstract
Organic-inorganic hybrid lead halide perovskites (OLHPs), represented by (CH3 NH3 )PbI3 , are one of the research focus due to their exceptional performance in optoelectronic applications, and ferroelastic domain walls are benign to their charge carrier transport that is confirmed recently. Among them, the 1D OLHPs feature better stability against desorption and moisture, but related 1D ones possessing ferroelasticity are rarely investigated and reported so far. In this work, the 1D ferroelastic semiconductor (N-iodomethyl-N-methyl-morpholinium)PbI3 ((IDMML)PbI3 ) is prepared successfully by introducing successively halogenate atoms from Cl, Br to I into the organic cation of the prototype (N,N-dimethylmorpholinium)PbI3 ((DMML)PbI3 ). Notably, (IDMML)PbI3 shows the narrow bandgap energy (≈2.34 eV) according to the ultraviolet-visible absorption spectrum and the theoretical calculation, and possesses the evident photoconductive characteristic with the on/off ratio of current of ≈50 under the 405 nm light irradiation. This work provides a new case for the ferroelastic OLHPs and will inspire intriguing research in the field of optoelectronic.

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
Hybrid organic-inorganic perovskites (HOIPs) have attracted much attention due to their excellent properties and easy synthesis. As far as we know, most documented ferroelastics mainly focus on the 3D (three-dimensional) perovskites, the 2D monolayer perovskite ferroelastics are rarely reported before. In this work, we synthesized a 2D lead-based perovskite (C5NH13Br)2PbBr4 (1) (C5NH13Br = 5-bromoamylamine cation) by introducing flexible chain organic cations. The evolution of ferroelastic domains observed by a polarized light microscope confirms that compound 1 undergoes a ferroelastic phase transition at 392/384 K. In addition, its direct band gap is 2.877 eV. Interestingly, the material emits an attractive blue light (quantum yield 5.06%) under UV light. Three structural descriptors are introduced to quantitatively analyze the relationship between structural distortion and the shape of emission peak. This work provides a way to design multifunctional perovskite-type materials.

Abstract
One of the great advantages of organic-inorganic metal halides is that their structures and properties are highly tuneable and this is important when optimizing materials for photovoltaics or other optoelectronic devices. One of the most common and effective ways of tuning the electronic structure is through anion substitution. Here, we report the inclusion of bromine into the layered perovskite [H3N(CH2)6NH3]PbBr4 to form [H3N(CH2)6NH3]PbBr4·Br2, which contains molecular bromine (Br2) intercalated between the layers of corner-sharing PbBr6 octahedra. Bromine intercalation in [H3N(CH2)6NH3]PbBr4·Br2 results in a decrease in the band gap of 0.85 eV and induces a structural transition from a Ruddlesden-Popper-like to Dion-Jacobson-like phase, while also changing the conformation of the amine. Electronic structure calculations show that Br2 intercalation is accompanied by the formation of a new band in the electronic structure and a significant decrease in the effective masses of around two orders of magnitude. This is backed up by our resistivity measurements that show that [H3N(CH2)6NH3]PbBr4·Br2 has a resistivity value of one order of magnitude lower than [H3N(CH2)6NH3]PbBr4, suggesting that bromine inclusion significantly increases the mobility and/or carrier concentration in the material. This work highlights the possibility of using molecular inclusion as an alternative tool to tune the electronic properties of layered organic-inorganic perovskites, while also being the first example of molecular bromine inclusion in a layered lead halide perovskite. By using a combination of crystallography and computation, we show that the key to this manipulation of the electronic structure is the formation of halogen bonds between the Br2 and Br in the [PbBr4]∞ layers, which is likely to have important effects in a range of organic-inorganic metal halides.

Abstract
Halide perovskites have gained tremendous attention in the past decade owing to their excellent properties in optoelectronics. Recently, a fascinating property, ferroelectricity, has been discovered in halide perovskites and quickly attracted widespread interest. Compared with traditional perovskite oxide ferroelectrics, halide perovskites display natural advantages such as structural softness, low weight, and easy processing, which are highly desirable in applications pursuing miniaturization and flexibility. This review focuses on the current research progress in halide perovskite ferroelectrics, encompassing the emerging materials systems and their potential applications in ferroelectric photovoltaics, self-powered photodetection, and X-ray detection. The main challenges and possible solutions in the future development of halide perovskite ferroelectric materials are also attempted to be pointed out.

FUNDAMENTAL RESEARCH 2023; 3:362-368. [PMID: 38933761 PMCID: PMC11197688 DOI: 10.1016/j.fmre.2022.01.015] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/11/2021] [Revised: 12/06/2021] [Accepted: 01/14/2022] [Indexed: 10/19/2022] Open
Abstract
Ferroelectric materials have become key components for versatile device applications, and their thin films are highly desirable for integrating the miniaturized devices. Despite substantial endeavors, it is still challenging to achieve effective chemiresistive sensing in the ferroelectric films. Here, for the first time, we have exploited ferroelectric thin films of 2D hybrid perovskite BA2EA2Pb3I10 (1), to fabricate the high-performance chemiresistor gas sensors. The spin-coated films of 1 exhibit high orientation and good crystallinity, thus preserving robust in-plane spontaneous polarization (P s ∼2.0 μC/cm2) and low electric coercivity. Notably, such ferroelectric film-based sensors after electric poling enable the dramatic room-temperature sensing responses to NO2 gas, including high sensitivity (0.05 ppm-1), extremely low detection limit (1 ppm) and fast responding rate (∼6 s). Besides, the chemiresistive responses are remarkably enhanced by threefold (up to 320%) through electric poling. It is proposed that this behavior closely involves with strong in-plane ferroelectric polarization of 1 that generates a built-in electric field inhibiting the recombination of charge carriers. As far as we know, this ferroelectric-based film chemiresisor is one of the best room-temperature sensors for NO2 gas among all the existing candidate materials. These findings highlight great potential of ferroelectrics toward effective chemiresistive performances, and also establish a bright direction to explore their future device applications.

Abstract
Ferroelectric ceramics such as PbZrxTi1-xO3 (PZT) are widely applied in many fields, from medical to aerospace, because of their dielectric, piezoelectric, and pyroelectric properties. In the past few years, hybrid organic-inorganic halide perovskites have gradually attracted attention for their optical and electronic properties, including ferroelectricity, and for their low fabrication costs. In this Review, we first describe techniques that are used to quantify ferroelectric figures of merit of a material. We then discuss ferroelectricity in hybrid perovskites, starting from controversies in methylammonium iodoplumbate perovskites and then focusing on low-dimensional perovskites that offer an unambiguous platform to obtain ferroelectricity. Finally, we provide examples of the application of perovskite ferroelectrics in solar cells, LEDs, and X-ray detectors. We conclude that the vast structure-property tunability makes low-dimensional hybrid perovskites promising, but they have yet to offer ferroelectric figures of merit (e.g., saturated polarization) and thermal stability (e.g., Curie temperature) competitive with those of conventional oxide perovskite ferroelectric materials.

Abstract
Hybrid organic-inorganic perovskites (HOIPs) have been widely studied for their interesting functions and potential applications. Here, we report a novel sulfur-containing hybrid organic-inorganic perovskite based on a one-dimensional ABX3-type compound: [C3H7N2S]PbI3 ([C3H7N2S]+ is 2-amino-2-thiazolinium) (1). Compound 1 undergoes two high-temperature phase transitions at 363 K and 401 K, respectively, showing a band gap of 2.33 eV, and has a narrower band gap compared to other one-dimensional materials. Moreover, by introducing thioether groups into the organic component, 1 has the ability to uptake Pd(II) ions. Compared with previously reported low-temperature isostructural phase transition sulfur-containing hybrids, the molecular motion of 1 becomes more intense under the stimulation of high temperature, leading to changes in the space group during the two phase transitions (Pbca → Pmcn → Cmcm), which are no longer the previous isostructural phase transitions. Significant changes in the phase transition behavior and semiconductor properties before and after metal absorption make it possible to monitor the absorption process of metal ions. The study of the effect of Pd(II) uptake on phase transitions may be helpful to reveal the mechanism of phase transitions more deeply. This work will broaden the hybrid organic-inorganic ABX3-type semiconductor family and pave the way for the development of organic-inorganic hybrid-based multifunctional phase transition materials.

Abstract
In recent years, there has been a research boom on halide perovskites (HPs) whose outstanding performance in photovoltaic and optoelectronic fields is obvious to all. In particular, HP materials find application in the development of artificial synapses. HP-based synapses have great potential for artificial neuromorphic systems, which is due to their outstanding optoelectronic properties, femtojoule-level energy consumption, and simple fabrication process. In this review, we present the physical properties of HPs and describe two types of synaptic devices including two-terminal (2T) memristors and three-terminal (3T) transistors. The HP layer in 2T memristors can realize the change in the device conductance through physical mechanisms dominated by ion migration. On the other hand, HPs in 3T transistors can be used as efficient light-absorbing layers and rely on some special device structures to provide reliable current changes. In the final section of the article, we discuss some of the existing applications of HP-based synapses and bottlenecks to be solved.

Abstract
Piezoelectric materials that enable electromechanical conversion have great application value in actuators, transducers, sensors, and energy harvesters. Large piezoelectric (d33) and piezoelectric voltage (g33) coefficients are highly desired and critical to their practical applications. However, obtaining a material with simultaneously large d33 and g33 has long been a huge challenge. Here, we reported a hybrid perovskite ferroelectric [Me3NCH2Cl]CdBrCl2 to mitigate and roughly address this issue by heavy halogen substitution. The introduction of a large-size halide element softens the metal-halide bonds and reduces the polarization switching barrier, resulting in excellent piezoelectric response with a large d33 (∼440 pC/N), which realizes a significant optimization compared with that of previously reported [Me3NCH2Cl]CdCl3 (You et al. Science2017, 357, 306-309). More strikingly, [Me3NCH2Cl]CdBrCl2 simultaneously shows a giant g33 of 6215 × 10-3 V m/N, far exceeding those of polymers and conventional piezoelectric ceramics. Combined with simple solution preparation, easy processing of thin films, and a high Curie temperature of 373 K, these attributes make [Me3NCH2Cl]CdBrCl2 promising for high-performance piezoelectric sensors in flexible, wearable, and biomechanical devices.

Abstract
Structural non-centrosymmetry in semiconducting organic-inorganic hybrid halide perovskites can introduce functionalities like anomalous photovoltaics and nonlinear optical properties. Here we introduce a design principle to prepare Pb- and Bi-based two- and one-dimensional hybrid perovskites with polar non-centrosymmetric space groups. The design principle relies on creating dissimilar hydrogen and halogen bonding non-covalent interactions at the organic-inorganic interface. For example, in organic cations like I-(CH2)3-NH2(CH3)+ (MIPA), -CH3 is substituted by -CH2I at one end, and -NH3+ is substituted by -NH2(CH3)+ at the other end. These substitutions of two -H atoms by -I and -CH3 reduce the rotational symmetry of MIPA at both ends, compared to an unsubstituted cation, for example, H3C-(CH2)3-NH3+. Consequently, the dissimilar hydrogen-iodine and iodine-iodine interactions at the organic-inorganic interface of (MIPA)2PbI4 2D perovskites break the local inversion symmetries of Pb-I octahedra. Owing to this non-centrosymmetry, (MIPA)2PbI4 displays visible to infrared tunable nonlinear optical properties with second and third harmonic generation susceptibility values of 5.73 pm V-1 and 3.45 × 10-18 m2 V-2, respectively. Also, the single crystal shows photocurrent on shining visible light at no external bias, exhibiting anomalous photovoltaic effect arising from the structural asymmetry. The design strategy was extended to synthesize four new non-centrosymmetric hybrid perovskite compounds. Among them, one-dimensional (H3N-(CH2)3-NH(CH3)2)BiI5 shows a second harmonic generation susceptibility of 7.3 pm V-1 and a high anomalous photovoltaic open-circuit voltage of 22.6 V.

Abstract
Efficient photo-Fenton removal of antibiotic effluent is a widely followed and significant attempt to deal with the growing environmental pollution. In this study, BiFeO3 and lanthanum doped BiFeO3 catalysts were synthesized via one-step hydrothermal method as hydrogen peroxide activator for mineralization of norfloxacin (NOR). Various characterization measurements were used to verify La was successfully doped into the lattice of perovskite and investigated the effect of La doping molar ratio on BiFeO3 through the characterization of the morphology and physicochemical properties. The degradation experiment and reaction rate constants showed that the La-doped BiFeO3 particle exhibited superior photo-Fenton catalytic performance to undoped BiFeO3. Especially, the degradation efficiency of 15% La-doped BiFeO3 could reach up to 84.94%. And the first order kinetic constant of optimized conditions was 0.01638 min-1, which was about 6.9 times than that of undoped BiFeO3.The influence of pH, oxidizer content and catalyst dosage in photo-Fenton reaction were investigated detailedly. Besides, the synthetic catalyst possessed favorable stability and reusability with little metal leaching after many cycles of use. Radical scavenger experiments and electron spin resonance tests were carried out to conclude that the ·OH and holes were regarded as the dominate active species in the catalytic process. The narrow band gap and excellent electron transfer efficiency were the key factors for La-doped BiFeO3 to have high catalytic efficiency in the photo-Fenton system. Current works demonstrated the great promise of La-doped BiFeO3 in the elimination of antibiotic organics.

The synthesis and investigation of the physicochemical properties of a novel one-dimensional (1D) hybrid organic-inorganic perovskitoid templated by the 1,1,1-trimethylhydrazinium (Me3Hy+) cation are reported. (Me3Hy)[PbI3] crystallizes in the hexagonal P63/m symmetry and undergoes two phase transitions (PTs) during heating (cooling) at 322 (320) and 207 (202) K. X-ray diffraction data and temperature-dependent vibrational studies show that the second-order PT to the high-temperature hexagonal P63/mmc phase is associated with a weak change in entropy and is related to weak structural changes and different confinement of cations in the available space. The second PT to the low-temperature orthorhombic Pbca phase that corresponds to the high change in entropy and dielectric switching is associated with an ordering of the trimethylhydrazinium cations, re-arrangement and strengthening of hydrogen bonds, and slightly shifted lead-iodide octahedral chains. The high-pressure Raman data revealed two additional PTs, one between 2.8 and 3.2 GPa, related to the symmetry decrease, ordering of the cations, and inorganic chain distortion, and the other in the 6.4-6.8 GPa range related to the partial and reversible amorphization. Optical studies revealed that (Me3Hy)[PbI3] has a wide band gap (3.20 eV) and emits reddish-orange excitonic emission at low temperatures with an activation energy of 65 meV.

Abstract
Halide perovskite semiconductors with extraordinary optoelectronic properties have been fascinatedly studied. Halide perovskite nanocrystals, single crystals, and thin films have been prepared for various fields, such as light emission, light detection, and light harvesting. High-performance devices rely on high crystal quality determined by the nucleation and crystal growth process. Here, the fundamental understanding of the crystallization process driven by supersaturation of the solution is discussed and the methods for halide perovskite crystals are summarized. Supersaturation determines the proportion and the average Gibbs free energy changes for surface and volume molecular units involved in the spontaneous aggregation, which could be stable in the solution and induce homogeneous nucleation only when the solution exceeds a required minimum critical concentration (Cmin ). Crystal growth and heterogeneous nucleation are thermodynamically easier than homogeneous nucleation due to the existent surfaces. Nanocrystals are mainly prepared via the nucleation-dominated process by rapidly increasing the concentration over Cmin , single crystals are mainly prepared via the growth-dominated process by keeping the concentration between solubility and Cmin , while thin films are mainly prepared by compromising the nucleation and growth processes to ensure compactness and grain sizes. Typical strategies for preparing these three forms of halide perovskites are also reviewed.

Abstract
Metal halide perovskite ferroelectrics possess various physical characteristics such as piezoelectric and pyroelectric effects, which could broaden the application of perovskite ferroelectrics and enhance the optoelectronic performance. Therefore, it is promising to combine multiple effects to optimize the performance of the self-powered PDs. Herein, patterned 2D ferroelectric perovskite (PMA)2PbCl4 microbelt arrays were demonstrated through a PDMS template-assisted antisolvent crystallization method. The perovskite arrays based flexible photodetectors exhibited fine self-powered photodetection performance under 320 nm illumination and much enhanced reproducibility compared with the randomly distributed single-crystal microbelts-based PDs. Furthermore, by introducing the piezo-phototronic effect, the performance of the flexible PD was greatly enhanced. Under an external tensile strain of 0.71%, the responsivity was enhanced by 185% from 84 to 155.5 mA/W. Our findings offer the advancement of comprehensively utilizing various physical characteristics of the ferroelectrics for novel ferroelectric optoelectronics.

Abstract
Sliding ferroelectricity is a recently observed polarity existing in two-dimensional materials. However, due to the weak polarization and poor electrical insulation in these materials, existing experimental evidences are indirect and mostly based on nanoscale transport properties or piezoresponse force microscopy. We report the direct observation of sliding ferroelectricity, using a high-quality amphidynamic single crystal (15-crown-5)Cd3Cl6, which possesses a large bandgap and so allows direct measurement of polarization-electric field hysteresis. This coordination polymer is a van der Waals material, which is composed of inorganic stators and organic rotators as determined by X-ray diffraction and NMR characterization. From density functional theory calculations, we find that after freezing the rotators, an electric dipole is generated in each layer driven by the geometric mechanism, while a comparable ferroelectric polarization originates from the interlayer sliding. The net polarization of these two components can be directly measured and manipulated. Our finding provides insight into low-dimensional ferroelectrics, especially control of the synchronous dynamics of rotating molecules and sliding layers in solids.

Abstract
Chemical responsivity in materials is essential to build systems with switchable functionalities. However, polarity-switchable materials are still rare because inducing a symmetry breaking of the crystal structure by adsorbing chemical species is difficult. In this study, we demonstrate that a molecular organic-inorganic hybrid crystal of (NEt4)2[MnN(CN)4] (1) undergoes polarity switching induced by water vapor and transforms into a rare example of proton-conducting second-harmonic-generation-active material. Centrosymmetric 1 transforms into noncentrosymmetric polar 1·3H2O and 1·MeOH by accommodating water and methanol molecules, respectively. However, only water vapor causes a spontaneous single-crystal-to-single-crystal transition. Moreover, 1·3H2O shows proton conduction with 2.3 × 10-6 S/cm at 298 K and a relative humidity of 80%.

Abstract
![]()
Two-dimensional (2D)
lead halide perovskites are a family of materials
at the heart of solar cell, light-emitting diode, and photodetector
technologies. This perspective leads to a number of synthetic efforts
toward materials of this class, including those with prescribed polar
architectures. The methylhydrazinium (MHy+) cation was
recently presumed to have an unusual capacity to generate non-centrosymmetric
perovskite phases, despite its intrinsically nonchiral structure.
Here, we witness this effect once again in the case of the Ruddlesden–Popper
perovskite phase of formula MHy2PbCl4. MHy2PbCl4 features three temperature-dependent crystal
phases, with two first-order phase transitions at T1 =
338.2 K (331.8 K) and T2 = 224.0 K (205.2 K) observed in
the heating (cooling) modes, respectively. Observed transitions involve
a transformation from high-temperature orthorhombic phase I, with the centrosymmetric space group Pmmn, through
the room-temperature modulated phase II, with the average
structure being isostructural to I, to the low-temperature
monoclinic phase III, with non-centrosymmetric space
group P21. The intermediate phase II is a rare example of a modulated structure in 2D perovskites,
with Pmmn(00γ)s00 superspace symmetry and modulation
vector q ≅ 0.25c*. MHy2PbCl4 beats the previous record of MHy2PbBr4 in terms of the shortest inorganic interlayer distance in
2D perovskites (8.79 Å at 350 K vs 8.66 Å at 295 K, respectively).
The characteristics of phase transitions are explored with differential
scanning calorimetry, dielectric, and Raman spectroscopies. The non-centrosymmetry
of phase III is confirmed with second harmonic generation
(SHG) measurements, and polarity is demonstrated by the pyroelectric
effect. MHy2PbCl4 also exhibits thermochromism,
with the photoluminescence (PL) color changing from purplish-blue
at 80 K to bluish-green at 230 K. The demonstration of polar characteristics
for one more member of the methylhydrazinium perovskites settles a
debate about whether this approach can present value for the crystal
engineering of acentric solids similar to that which was recently
adopted by a so-called fluorine substitution effect. The properties of an unknown halide analogue of extant two-dimensional
methylhydrazinium perovskites of formula MHy2PbCl4 were explored. A multitechnique investigation of the structural,
polar, dielectric, nonlinear, and linear optical properties of all
crystal phases of MHy2PbCl4 forms the basis
of the present contribution.

Abstract
Chiral hybrid organic-inorganic metal halides (HOMHs) with intrinsic noncentrosymmetry have shown great promise for broad applications in chiroptoelectronics, spintronics, and ferroelectronics. However, the construction strategies for chiral HOMHs often involve chiral building blocks in their frameworks, which greatly limit their chemical diversity. Here, we take advantage of a chiral induction approach and have successfully constructed a series of chiral HOMHs, DMA4MX7 (DMA = dimethylammonium, M = Sb or Bi, X = Cl or Br), based on achiral precursors. The resulting chiral products demonstrate a clear enantioenrichment, as confirmed by single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis and solid-state circular dichroism (CD) spectroscopy. The induction of chiral HOMHs enables superior nonlinear optical performances with very high thermal stability and laser resistance. The successful employment of such a chiral induction approach might facilitate the construction of libraries of chiral HOMH crystals from diverse achiral precursors, in particular those into which it is not easy to introduce intrinsic chiral centers, and would thus pave a new way for rational preparation and application of chiral HOMH materials.

Abstract
Halide double perovskites present a new branch for versatile optoelectronic devices because of their huge structural compatibility and environmental friendliness, whereas nonlinear optics (NLO) devices remain blank for this fascinating family. Simultaneously, the precise patterning of single-crystalline perovskite microwire arrays remains a challenge for the integration of NLO devices. Herein, we designed lead-free chiral 2D double perovskites with the nonsymmetrical structure presenting second-harmonic generation (SHG). Furthermore, perovskite single-crystalline arrays with regulated geometry, pure orientation, and high crystallinity are prepared using the capillary-bridge confined assembly technique. The efficient SHG originates from the asymmetric crystal structure and high crystallinity of the microwire arrays. Compared with their polycrystalline thin-film counterparts, linearly polarized SHG and a higher SHG conversion efficiency are demonstrated based on microwire arrays. The results not only expand the applications of lead-free double perovskites in the NLO-integrated fields but also provide a viable way for lead-free optoelectronic devices.
