Through the strategy of F/H substitution, we precisely designed the highest-Tc (phase transition temperature) organic enantiomeric ferroelectrics, (R)- and (S)-(N,N-dimethyl-3-fluoropyrrolidinium) iodide, of which the Tc reaches up to 470 K, far beyond those of other enantiomeric ferroelectrics and also the commercial ferroelectric BaTiO3.

The dielectric properties of synclinic (ferroelectric SmC*) and anticlinic (antiferroelectric SmC*) smectic liquid crystals composed of molecules of one chiral version (S) are presented and compared with properties of racemic mixture (R, S), showing SmC and SmC phases. The racemic mixture completely loses its ferroelectric and antiferroelectric properties. Surprisingly, only one dielectric mode observed in the antiferroelectric SmC* phase disappeared in the dielectric response of the racemic SmC phase.

Chiral ferroelectric crystals with intriguing features have attracted great interest and many with point or axial chirality based on the stereocarbon have been successively developed in recent years. However, ferroelectric crystals with stereogenic heteroatomic chirality have never been documented so far. Here, we discover and report a pair of enantiomeric stereogenic sulfur-chiral single-component organic ferroelectric crystals, R -tert-butanesulfinamide (R -tBuSA) and S -tert-butanesulfinamide (S -tBuSA) through the deep understanding of the chemical design of molecular ferroelectric crystals.

Chirality, an intrinsic property of nature, has received increased attention in chemistry, biology, and materials science because it can induce optical rotation, ferroelectricity, nonlinear optical response, and other unique properties. Here, by introducing chirality into hybrid rare-earth double perovskites (HREDPs), we successfully designed and synthesized a pair of enantiomeric three-dimensional (3D) HREDPs, [()--methyl-3-hydroxylquinuclidinium]RbEu(NO) (R1) and [()--methyl-3-hydroxylquinuclidinium]RbEu(NO) (S1), which possess ferroelasticity, multiaxial ferroelectricity, high quantum yields (84.71% and 83.

Cyanido-bridged dimetallic complexes are attracting attention due to their varied structures and properties. However, homochiral cyanido-bridged dimetallic complexes are rare, and making them ferroelectric is a great challenge. Introducing C-F⋅⋅⋅K interactions between the guest chiral cations and the host [KFe(CN) ] framework, gives three-dimensional cyanido-bridged dimetallic multiferroics, [R- and S-3-fluoropyrrolidinium] [KFe(CN) ] (R- and S-3-FPC).
