New organic-inorganic hybrids have been synthesized by the intercalation of -alkylamines (methylamine, ethylamine, -propylamine, -butylamine, -hexylamine, and -octylamine) into the structure of the protonated and hydrated form of the perovskite-like layered titanate HKBiTiO·HO (HKBT·HO). The possibility of the synthesis of the hybrid materials was studied in a wide range of conditions. It was found that interlayer water plays a crucial role in the formation of intercalated hybrids. The obtained compounds were characterized with powder X-ray diffraction analysis; Raman, IR, and NMR spectroscopies; thermogravimetry (TG), TG coupled with mass spectrometry, and CHN analyses; and scanning electron microscopy. It was suggested that the intercalated -alkylamines exist in the form of alkylammonium ions forming a paraffin-like bilayer with an average tilting angle of ∼77.5°. The obtained HKBT×RNH compounds contain 0.4-0.7 -alkylamine molecules per formula unit as well as the varied amount of intercalated water. By gentle heating, they can be obtained as dehydrated forms, which are thermally stable up to 250 °C.

Hybrid organic-inorganic halide perovskites (HOIPs) have garnered a significant amount of attention due to their exceptional photoelectric conversion efficiency. However, they still face considerable challenges in large-scale applications, primarily due to their instability. One key factor influencing this instability is the lattice softness attributed to the A-site cations.

Multi-signal-based self-calibrating biosensors have become a research focus due to their superior accuracy and sensitivity in recent years. Herein, the potential-resolved differential ECL immunoassay based on dual co-reactants regulation was developed. Meso-tetra(4-carboxyphenyl)porphyrin (TCPP) functionalized zirconium dioxide (ZrO) composites (TCPP-ZrO) was first synthesized using TCPP as the luminophore and ZrO as the enhancer and stabilizer.

The structural and electronic changes are investigated in a 3D hybrid perovskite, methylhydrazinium lead chloride (MHyPbCl) from a host/guest perspective as it transitions from a highly polar to less polar phase upon cooling, using first-principles calculations. The two phases vary structurally in the guest (MHy) orientation and the two differently distorted host (lead halide) layers. These findings highlight the critical role of guest reorientation in reducing host distortion at high temperatures, making the former the primary order parameter for the transition, a notable contrast to the case of other hybrid perovskites.

Organic-inorganic hybrid ferroelectric compounds of the halobismuthate family have emerged as a focal point of research owing to their reduced toxicity and distinctive optical characteristics. This study presents a novel ammonium hybrid perovskite, [BPMBDMA]·[Bi2Br9], which exhibits both ferro- and piezoelectric properties and crystallizes in the polar noncentrosymmetric 2 space group. The nonlinear optical (NLO) activity of [BPMBDMA]·[Bi2Br9] was corroborated through second harmonic generation measurements evidencing its noncentrosymmetric structure, which was further substantiated by piezoresponse force microscopy analyses.
