ABX3 perovskites, as the largest family of crystalline materials, have attracted tremendous research interest worldwide due to their versatile multifunctionalities and the intriguing scientific principles underlying them. Their counterparts, antiperovskites (X3BA), are actually electronically inverted perovskite derivatives, but they are not an ignorable family of functional materials. In fact, inheriting the flexible structural features of perovskites while being rich in cations at X sites, antiperovskites exhibit a diverse array of unconventional physical and chemical properties. However, rather less attention has been paid to these “inverse” analogs, and therefore, a comprehensive review is urgently needed to arouse general concern. Recent advances in novel antiperovskite materials and their exceptional functionalities are summarized, including superionic conductivity, superconductivity, giant magnetoresistance, negative thermal expansion, luminescence, and electrochemical energy conversion. In particular, considering the feasibility of the perovskite structure, a universal strategy for enhancing the performance of or generating new phenomena in antiperovskites is discussed from the perspective of solid‐state chemistry. With more research enthusiasm, antiperovskites are highly anticipated to become a rising star family of functional materials.

“…Over the past few decades, the antiperovskite compounds M 3 AX (A: metal or semiconducting elements, X: C or N, M: transition metal elements, such as V, Cr, Mn, Fe, Co and Ni) have attracted considerable attention because of their plenty of interesting properties, such as giant barocaloric effect [1], magnetocaloric effect [2,3], superconductivity [4][5][6][7], giant magnetoresistance [8,9], negative/zero thermal expansion [10,11], nearly zero temperature coefficient of resistivity [12][13][14], and large magnetostriction [15,16]. However, recent investigations of M 3 AX are mainly focused on the Mn-, Fe-, and Ni-based antiperovskite compounds.…”

“…The V 3 PnN x (Pn = P, As) compounds crystallize in the filled Re 3 B structure with the orthorhombic Cmcm space group [7,19], which is different from those of major antiperovskite compounds with the cubic Pm3m space group [1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14][15][16]. As reported previously, the Cr-based antiperovskite compounds Cr 3 PX (X = N, C) has the same structure as V-based antiperovskite compounds V 3 PnN x (Pn = P, As) [17].…”

“…22 Recently, tetragonal antiperovskite Mn 3 SbN has been reported to show ferrimagnetism accompanied by large magnetostriction. 23 However, to the best of our knowledge, the impact of element doping on the properties of Mn 3 SbN has not been explored yet, although the abovementioned analogy is expected to show significant improvement in the properties. So far, several elements, such as In, Ag, Sn, and As have been attempted to dope in place of Sb in Mn 3 SbN.…”

“…1 shows the experimental SXRD and the corresponding refined pattern of Mn 3 SbN at room temperature. The initial refinement was carried out with a space group of P4/mmm, as suggested in previously reported studies, 23 in order to achieve a reasonable refinement. Results confirm that the tetragonal structure model well describes the host Mn 3 SbN synthesized in this study.…”

Structural and magnetic characterizations of Mn2CrO4 and MnCr2O4 films on MgO(001) and SrTiO3(001) substrates by molecular beam epitaxy Substitution of Sb with Sn was achieved in ferrimagnetic antiperovskite Mn 3 SbN. The experimental results indicate that with an increase in Sn concentration, the magnetization continuously decreases and the crystal structure of Mn 3 Sb 1-x Sn x N changes from tetragonal to cubic phase at around x of 0.8. In the doping series, step-like anomaly in the isothermal magnetization was found and this behavior was highlighted at x ¼ 0.4. The anomaly could be attributed to the magnetic frustration, resulting from competition between the multiple spin configurations in the antiperovskite lattice. Meantime, H c of 18 kOe was observed at x ¼ 0.3, which is probably the highest among those of manganese antiperovskite materials reported so far. With increasing Sn content, the abrupt change of resistivity and the sharp peak of heat capacity in Mn 3 SbN were gradually weakened. The crystal structure refinements indicate the weakened change at the magnetic transition is close related to the change of c/a ratio variation from tetragonal to cubic with Sn content. The results derived from this study indicate that the behavior of Mn 3 Sb 1-x Sn x N could potentially enhance its scientific and technical applications, such as spin torque transfer and hard magnets.
