Abstract

Halide perovskites have emerged as a type of extremely promising material for their diverse chemical and electronic structures along with their brilliant optoelectronic properties. The introduction of chirality into perovskite scaffolds, generating a novel concept of chiral perovskite materials, offers an immense step forward toward the development of smart optoelectronic and spintronic materials and devices. The present Review summarizes recent advances in such an emerging field regarding the design and construction of chiral perovskite materials, along with their optoelectronic performances. In addition, an outlook of future challenges as well as the potential significance of the chiral perovskite family on the optical communication is proposed.

Keywords: chiral perovskites; circular dichroism; circularly polarized luminescence; ferroelectricity; second harmonic generation; spintronics.
