Organic-inorganic metal halides (OIMHs) have become a research hotspot in recent years due to their excellent luminescent properties and tunable emission wavelengths. However, the development of efficient red-light-emitting OIMHs remains a significant challenge. This work reports three Mn-based OIMHs derived from 1-methyl-1,2,3,4-tetrahydroisoquinoline hydrobromide: racemic one (Rac-TBM) and chiral ones (R-TBM and S-TBM). As a result of the synergism of chiral organic ligands inducing a unique lantern-shaped hybrid structure containing both tetrahedra and octahedra, Rac-TBM exhibits red-light emission with near-unity luminescence quantum yield. In comparison, the chiral counterparts R/S-TBM display strong green emission and circularly polarized luminescence (CPL) with a g value up to ±2.5×10. Interestingly, a mixture of R- and S-TBM can transform into Rac-TBM, successfully achieving a sensitive and reversible switch between red light of octahedra and green light of tetrahedra under external stimuli. The outstanding luminescent properties allow Rac-TBM to be utilized not only for X-ray radioluminescence with a detection limit down to 46.29 nGys, but also for advanced information encryption systems to achieve leak-proof decryption.
