Utilizing the manipulation of perovskite dimensions has been proven as an effective approach in regulating perovskite properties. Nevertheless, achieving precise control over the dimensions of perovskites within the same system poses a significant challenge. In this study, we introduce a sophisticated method to attain precise dimensional control in metal-free perovskites (MFPs), specifically through the process of octahedron tailoring by compositional engineering. Accordingly, we successfully instigated a transition from HPIP-NHI ⋅ HO (3D), HPIP-NHI (2D) and HPIP-NHI (1D) structures. Notably, HPIP-NHI is the first 2D MFP. As anticipated, these perovskites exhibited completely distinct fluorescence and X-ray detection capabilities due to their differing dimensions. Remarkably, the 2D HPIP-NHI device effectively hindered ion migration perpendicular to the 2D layers, achieving the lowest detection limit of 12.2 nGy s among metal-free single crystals-based detectors. This study expands the dimensionality control strategies for MFPs and introduces, for the first time, the potential of 2D MFPs as high-performance X-ray detectors, thereby enriching the diversity of the MFPs family.

Perovskite solar cell (PSC) technology holds great promise with continuously improving power conversion efficiency; however, the use of metal electrodes hinders its commercialization and the development of tandem designs. Although single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs), as one-dimensional materials, have the potential to replace metal electrodes in PSCs, their poor conductivity still limits their application. In this study, the near-infrared (NIR)-absorbing anionic heptamethine cyanine dye-doped SWCNTs functioned in a dual role as an efficient charge-selective layer and electrode in PSCs.

The nonlinear chiroptical properties of chiral metal halide perovskite has attracted substantial attention in recent years. In order to overcome the inherent limitations of metal halide, such as high costs, potential toxicity, challenges with recycling, especially the limited laser-induced damage threshold (LDT), we have successfully constructed the first chiral metal-free anti-perovskite, with the aim of utilizing it in second harmonic generation-circular dichroism (SHG-CD). Moreover, the anti-perovskite composed entirely of small organic ions typically display a more extensive transparent window, which could contribute a high LDT.

As a model for the energy-efficient aftertreatment of exhaust gas components, we studied microwave-assisted (MW) CO oxidation over a (La,Sr)CoO (LSC) perovskite oxide catalyst under dry and humidified conditions. We found that the use of a MW-based process can offer multiple advantages over traditional thermocatalysis in this scenario, as the nature of the MW-solid interaction offers quick, adaptive, and energy-efficient heating as well as improved yield and lower light-off temperatures. As found by combined CO and water MW-desorption experiments, the presence of technically relevant amounts of water leads to a competition for surface active sites and thus slows the reaction rate without indications for a fundamental change in the mechanism.

All-proportional solid solutions of the metal-free perovskite (Hdabco, Hhmta)(NH)(BF) ((d,h)-BF) were crystallized a mechanochemical method. Their molecular dynamics depend on the ratio with a compositional boundary at = 0.43, where Hdabco was deduced to be at a dynamic disorder state, even below phase transition temperature to a plastic crystalline phase seen at = 0.

Lithium salt-doped spiro-OMeTAD is widely used as a hole-transport layer (HTL) for high-efficiency n-i-p perovskite solar cells (PSCs), but unfortunately facing awkward instability for commercialization arising from the intrinsic Li migration and hygroscopicity. We herein demonstrate a superoxide radicals (•O) derived HTL of metal-free spiro-OMeTAD with remarkable capability of avoiding the conventional tedious oxidation treatment in air for highly stable PSCs. Present work explores the employing of variant-valence Eu(TFSI) salts that could generate •O for facile and adequate pre-oxidation of spiro-OMeTAD, resulting in the HTL with dramatically increased conductivity and work function.
