“…Recently, we have shown that the optical properties of organic–inorganic hybrid halide perovskites primarily depend on the inorganic framework and any change in the optical behavior can be attributed to an increase in the in-plane octahedral distortions. , Therefore, in order to explore the effect of chemical tuning of spacer cations on the inorganic framework, we have shown the principal interactions between the organic cations and the inorganic framework through H1···I5, H1···I6, H3···I7, and H2···I8 bonds, as marked in Figure , and the values have been tabulated in Table . These interactions may distort the PbI 6 octahedra in layers, and this distortion can be measured in terms of various octahedra angles (∠ Pb 1 I 2 Pb 2, ∠ Pb 1 I 3 Pb 3, ∠ Pb 1 I 4 Pb 4, and ∠ Pb 1 I 5 Pb 5) and Pb–I bond lengths (Figure and Table ).…”
