Perovskite photovoltaics

2D perovskites featuring intralayer bidentate ligands

Making efficient and stable metal halide perovskites typically involves challenging trade-offs between structural integrity and performance. Now, a series of two-dimensional perovskites featuring intralayer bidentate coordination ligands has been developed, providing an extendable molecular approach to strengthen the structure and modulate the performance of these hybrid materials and their analogues.
