The design of nanoscale organic-metal hybrids with tunable magnetic properties as well as the realization of controlled magnetic coupling between them open gateways for novel molecular spintronic devices. Progress in this direction requires a combination of a clever choice of organic and thin-film materials, advanced magnetic characterization techniques with a spatial resolution down to the atomic length scale, and a thorough understanding of magnetic properties based on first-principles calculations. Here, we make use of carbon-based systems of various nanoscale size, such as single coronene molecules and islands of graphene, deposited on a skyrmion lattice of a single atomic layer of iron on an iridium substrate, in order to tune the magnetic characteristics (for example, magnetic moments, magnetic anisotropies and coercive field strengths) of the organic-metal hybrids. Moreover, we demonstrate long-range magnetic coupling between individual organic-metal hybrids via the chiral magnetic skyrmion lattice, thereby offering viable routes towards spin information transmission between magnetically stable states in nanoscale dimensions.

Metal halide perovskites and perovskite-related organic metal halide hybrids (OMHHs) have recently emerged as a new class of luminescent materials for light emitting diodes (LEDs), owing to their unique and remarkable properties, including near-unity photoluminescence quantum efficiencies, highly tunable emission colors, and low temperature solution processing. While substantial progress has been made in developing monochromatic LEDs with electroluminescence across blue, green, red, and near-infrared regions, achieving highly efficient and stable white electroluminescence from a single LED remains a challenging and under-explored area. Here, a facile approach to generating white electroluminescence is reported by combining narrow sky-blue emission from metal halide perovskites and broadband orange/red emission from zero-dimensional (0D) OMHHs.

Most polymetallic hybrid metal halides are assumed to show a homogenous distribution of the metal ions in the bulk. Herein, we demonstrate a core-shell model for the hybrid lead halide [(CHN)·PbBr] (CHN = 2-(piperazin-1-yl)ethan-1-aminium) coated with a manganese bromide layer. This model can explain the different photoemission of this composite material, and provides new insights on the investigation of polymetallic low-dimensional organic metal halides.

Low dimensional (LD) organic metal halide hybrids (OMHHs) have recently emerged as new generation functional materials with exceptional structural and property tunability. Despite the remarkable advances in the development of LD OMHHs, optical properties have been the major functionality extensively investigated for most of LD OMHHs developed to date, while other properties, such as magnetic and electronic properties, remain significantly under-explored. Here, we report for the first time the characterization of the magnetic and electronic properties of a 1D OMHH, organic-copper (II) chloride hybrid (CHN)CuCl.

Incorporating a functional unit into the multidimensional coordination polymer skeleton is an efficient way to improve the stability of materials and expand their application. In this paper, anionic copper iodide inorganic functional modules are incorporated into one-dimensional extended chains by using a unique bidentate cationic organic ligand. Benefiting from the ionic extended structure, the resulting hybrid possesses a remarkable stability with a decomposition temperature as high as 300 °C.
