Abstract
Hybrid organic-inorganic perovskites with diverse lattice structures and chemical composition provide an ideal material platform for novel functionalization, including chirality transfer. Chiral perovskites combine organic and inorganic sublattices, therefore encoding the structural asymmetry into the electronic structures and giving rise to the spin-splitting effect. From a structural chemistry perspective, the magnitude of the spin-splitting effect crucially depends on the noncovalent and electrostatic interaction within the chiral perovskite, which induces the local site and long-range bulk inversion symmetry breaking. In this regard, we systematically retrospect the structure-property relationships in chiral perovskite. Insight into the rational design of chiral perovskites based on molecular configuration, dimensionality, and chemical composition along with their effects on spin-splitting manifestation is presented. Lastly, challenges in purposeful material design and further integration into chiral perovskite-based spintronic devices are outlined. With an understanding of fundamental chemistry and physics, we believe that this Perspective will propel the application of multifunctional spintronic devices.
