A ferroelastic molecular rotator [(Me₂N(CH₂)₂NH₃)(18-crown-6)]triflate with dual dielectric switches

Abstract

Molecular rotors possess the unique structure that facilitates the dynamic motion of building blocks to construct artificial molecular machines, which endows them with potential applications in the fields of information...

Reversible Phase Transition and Second-Harmonic Response Based on a Zero-Dimensional Organic–Inorganic Hybrid Compound

“…Meanwhile, in previously reported phase change materials, organic ammonium cations fill in poles created by the inorganic framework, such as [NH 4 ]­[M­(HCOO) 3 ] and [C 6 H 14 N] 2 PbBr 4 . Therefore, by introducing new organic and inorganic frameworks, OIHMs with more new attractive properties could be obtained. − …”

A nickel(ii)-based one-dimensional organic–inorganic halide perovskite ferroelectric with the highest Curie temperature

“…18–23 Such unique structural characteristics open a rich platform for design synthesis and performance optimization of ferroelectric materials. 24–33 Nevertheless, hundreds of ABX 3 -type OIHPs have been discovered, while only a few cases show ferroelectricity. Exploring reliable design concepts to assemble OIHP structures for developing high-performance ferroelectrics is an imminent ongoing challenge.…”

Tin-based organic–inorganic metal halides with a reversible phase transition and thermochromic response

“…53 Therefore, tin-based materials have excellent optical properties. 19,54 Additionally, tin-based halides have also received attention due to their thermochromic properties. 19 In simple terms, the color of the material changes with temperature so it can be used as a temperature indicator or alarm.…”
