Abstract
Flexible ferroelectric materials are in high demand in emerging energy harvesting and self-powered sensing electronics. However, current flexible ferroelectric polymers, such as poly(vinylidene fluoride) (PVDF) and P(VDF-co-trifluoroethylene) [P(VDF-TrFE)], cannot fulfill the requirement of emerging applications because of their low piezoelectric/pyroelectric performance. In this work, using organic-inorganic hybrid perovskite [(4-aminotetrahydropyran)2PbBr2Cl2] ferroelectric nanorods as reinforcement and P(VDF-TrFE) as the matrix, we prepared flexible core-sheath piezoelectric nanofibers and pyroelectric nanocomposite films. The core-sheath nanofibers possess a record-high piezoelectric coefficient of 78.1 pC·N-1, and the output voltage reaches to 192 V, with the maximum power density of 1.04 W·m-2. On the other hand, the nanocomposite film exhibits a high pyroelectric coefficient of 58.2 μC·m-2·K-1 at 333 K, which yields a voltage of 6.1 V under 6.6 K temperature fluctuation. An integrated flexible sensing device was prepared by combining piezoelectric nanofibers and pyroelectric films, which can wirelessly detect vibration and temperature fluctuation simultaneously. The integrated device is suitable for pipelines, power equipment, and other scenarios, where vibration and temperature need to be monitored at the same time.

Abstract
Ferroelectrics as emerging and attractive catalysts have shown tremendous potential for applications including wastewater treatment, hydrogen production, nitrogen fixation, and organic synthesis, etc. In this study, we demonstrate that molecular ferroelectric crystal TMCM-CdCl3 (TMCM = trimethylchloromethylammonium) with multiaxial ferroelectricity and superior piezoelectricity has an effective catalytic activity on the direct construction of the pharmacologically important substituted quinoline derivatives via one-pot [3 + 2 + 1] annulation of anilines and terminal alkynes by using N,N-dimethylformamide (DMF) as the carbon source. The recrystallized TMCM-CdCl3 crystals from DMF remain well ferroelectricity and piezoelectricity. Upon ultrasonic condition, periodic changes in polarization contribute to the release of free charges from the surface of the ferroelectric domains in nano size, which then quickly interacts with the substrates in the solution to trigger the pivotal redox process. Our work advances the molecular ferroelectric crystal as a catalytic route to organic synthesis, not only providing valuable direction for molecular ferroelectrics but also further enriching the executable range of ferroelectric catalysis.

[PMID: 38133067 PMCID: PMC10745407 DOI: 10.3390/nano13243170] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/29/2023] [Revised: 12/11/2023] [Accepted: 12/15/2023] [Indexed: 12/23/2023]
Abstract
The highest energy conversion efficiencies are typically shown by lead-containing piezoelectric materials, but the harmful environmental impacts of lead and its toxicity limit future use. At the bulk scale, lead-based piezoelectric materials have significantly higher piezoelectric properties when compared to lead-free piezoelectric materials. However, at the nanoscale, the piezoelectric properties of lead-free piezoelectric material can be significantly larger than the bulk scale. The piezoelectric properties of Poly(vinylidene fluoride) (PVDF) and Poly(vinylidene fluoride-co-trifluoroethylene) (PVDF-TrFE) lead-free piezoelectric nanomaterials are reviewed and their suitability for use in piezoelectric nanogenerators (PENGs) is determined. The impact of different PVDF/PVDF-TrFE composite structures on power output is explained. Strategies to improve the power output are given. Overall, this review finds that PVDF/PVDF-TrFE can have significantly increased piezoelectric properties at the nanoscale. However, these values are still lower than lead-free ceramics at the nanoscale. If the sole goal in developing a lead-free PENG is to maximize output power, lead-free ceramics at the nanoscale should be considered. However, lead-free ceramics are brittle, and thus encapsulation of lead-free ceramics in PVDF is a way to increase the flexibility of these PENGs. PVDF/PVDF-TrFE offers the advantage of being nontoxic and biocompatible, which is useful for many applications.

Design and Piezoelectric Energy Harvesting Properties of a Ferroelectric Cyclophosphazene Salt. SMALL (WEINHEIM AN DER BERGSTRASSE, GERMANY) 2023; 19:e2300792.

Abstract
Cyclophosphazenes offer a robust and easily modifiable platform for a diverse range of functional systems that have found applications in a wide variety of areas. Herein, for the first time, it reports an organophosphazene-based supramolecular ferroelectric [(PhCH2 NH)6 P3 N3 Me]I, [PMe]I. The compound crystallizes in the polar space group Pc and its thin-film sample exhibits remnant polarization of 5 µC cm-2 . Vector piezoresponse force microscopy (PFM) measurements indicated the presence of multiaxial polarization. Subsequently, flexible composites of [PMe]I are fabricated for piezoelectric energy harvesting applications using thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU) as the matrix. The highest open-circuit voltages of 13.7 V and the maximum power density of 34.60 µW cm-2 are recorded for the poled 20 wt.% [PMe]I/TPU device. To understand the molecular origins of the high performance of [PMe]I-based mechanical energy harvesting devices, piezoelectric charge tensor values are obtained from DFT calculations of the single crystal structure. These indicate that the mechanical stress-induced distortions in the [PMe]I crystals are facilitated by the high flexibility of the layered supramolecular assembly.

Abstract
Ferromagnetic semiconductors (FMS) enable simultaneous control of both charge and spin transport of charge carriers, and they have emerged as a class of highly desirable but rare materials for applications in spin field-effect transistors and quantum computing. Organic-inorganic hybrid perovskites with high compositional adjustability and structural versatility can offer unique benefits in the design of FMS but has not been fully explored. Here, a series of molecular FMSs based on the 2D organic-inorganic hybrid perovskite structure, namely (2ampy)CuCl4 , (3ampy)CuCl4 , and (4ampy)CuCl4 , is demonstrated, which exhibits high saturation magnetization, dramatic temperature-dependent conductivity change, and tunable ferromagnetic resonance. Magnetic measurements reveal a high saturation magnetization up to 18.56 emu g-1 for (4ampy)CuCl4 , which is one of the highest value among reported hybrid FMSs to date. Conductivity studies of the three FMSs demonstrate that the smaller adjacent octahedron distance in the 2D layer results in higher conductivity. Systematic ferromagnetic resonance investigation shows that the gyromagnetic ratio and Landau factor values are strongly dependent on the types of organic cations used. This work demonstrates that 2D hybrid perovskite materials can simultaneously possess both tunable long-range ferromagnetic ordering and semiconductivity, providing a straightforward strategy for designing and synthesizing high-performance intrinsic FMSs.

Abstract
Achromatic quarter waveplates (A-QWPs), traditionally constructed from multiple birefringent crystals, can modulate light polarization and retardation across a broad range of wavelengths. This mechanism is inherently related to phase retardation controlled by the fast and slow axis of stacked multi-birefringent crystals. However, the conventional design of A-QWPs requires the incorporation of multiple birefringent crystals, which complicates the manufacturing process and raises costs. Here, we report the discovery of a broadband (540-1060 nm) A-QWP based on a two-dimensional (2D) layered hybrid copper halide (HCH) perovskite single crystal. The 2D copper chloride (CuCl6) layers of the HCH crystal undergo Jahn-Teller distortion and subsequently trigger the in-plane optical birefringence. Its broad range of the wavelength response as an A-QWP is a consequence of the out-of-plane mosaicity formed among the stacked inorganic layers during the single-crystal self-assembly process in the solution phase. Given the versatility of 2D hybridhalide perovskites, the 2D HCH crystal offers a promising approach for designing cost-effective A-QWPs and the ability to integrate other optical devices.
