Abstract

The perovskites are an intensely studied class of materials, with a breadth of possible compositions made even wider by the possibility of incorporating molecular ions. Here the context is discussed of a newly reported metal-free perovskite with the H3O+ ion on the B site.

Keywords: disorder; ionic crystals; metal-free perovskite; polymorphism.
