Chiral organic–inorganic perovskites (COIPs) have recently attracted increasing interest due to their unique inherent chirality and potential applications in next-generation optoelectronic and spintronic devices. However, COIP ferroelectrics are very sparse. In this work, for the first time, we present the nickel-nitrite ABX3 COIP ferroelectrics, [(R and S)-N-fluoromethyl-3-quinuclidinol]Ni(NO2)3 ([(R and S)-FMQ]Ni(NO2)3), where the X-site is the rarely seen NO2 – bridging ligand. [(R and S)-FMQ]Ni(NO2)3 display mirror-relationship in the crystal structure and vibrational circular dichroism signal. It is emphasized that [(R and S)-FMQ]Ni(NO2)3 show splendid ferroelectricity with both an extremely high phase-transition point of 405 K and a spontaneous polarization of 12 μC/cm2. To our knowledge, [(R and S)-FMQ]Ni(NO2)3 are the first examples of nickel-nitrite based COIP ferroelectrics. This finding expands the COIP family and throws light on exploration of high-performance COIP ferroelectrics.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
