Abstract
Luminescent ferroelectrics are holding exciting prospect for integrated photoelectronic devices due to potential light-polarization interactions at electron scale. Integrating ferroelectricity and long-lived afterglow emission in a single material would offer new possibilities for fundamental research and applications, however, related reports have been a blank to date. For the first time, we here achieved the combination of notable ferroelectricity and afterglow emission in an organic-inorganic hybrid material. Remarkably, the presented (4-methylpiperidium)CdCl3 also shows noticeable antiferroelectric behavior. The implementation of cationic customization and halogen engineering not only enables a dramatic enhancement of Curie temperature of 114.4 K but also brings a record longest emission lifetime up to 117.11 ms under ambient conditions, realizing a leapfrog improvement of at least two orders of magnitude compared to reported hybrid ferroelectrics so far. This finding would herald the emergence of novel application potential, such as multi-level density data storage or multifunctional sensors, towards the future integrated optoelectronic devices with multitasking capabilities.

Abstract
Hybrid organic-inorganic perovskite (HOIP) ferroelectric materials have great potential for developing self-powered electronic transducers owing to their impressive piezoelectric performance, structural tunability and low processing temperatures. Nevertheless, their inherent brittle and low elastic moduli limit their application in electromechanical conversion. Integration of HOIP ferroelectrics and soft polymers is a promising solution. In this work, a hybrid organic-inorganic rare-earth double perovskite ferroelectric, [RM3HQ]2RbPr(NO3)6 (RM3HQ = (R)-N-methyl-3-hydroxylquinuclidinium) is presented, which possesses multiaxial nature, ferroelasticity and satisfactory piezoelectric properties, including piezoelectric charge coefficient (d33) of 102.3 pC N-1 and piezoelectric voltage coefficient (g33) of 680 × 10-3 V m N-1. The piezoelectric generators (PEG) based on composite films of [RM3HQ]2RbPr(NO3)6@polyurethane (PU) can generate an open-circuit voltage (Voc) of 30 V and short-circuit current (Isc) of 18 µA, representing one of the state-of-the-art PEGs to date. This work has promoted the exploration of new HOIP ferroelectrics and their development of applications in electromechanical conversion devices.

Abstract
The ability to generate and manipulate photoluminescence (PL) behavior has been of primary importance for applications in information security. Excavating novel optical effects to create more possibilities for information encoding has become a continuous challenge. Herein, we present an unprecedented PL temporary quenching that highly couples with thermodynamic phase transition in a hybrid crystal (DMML)2 MnBr4 (DMML=N,N-dimethylmorpholinium). Such unusual PL behavior originates from the anomalous variation of [MnBr4 ]2- tetrahedrons that leads to non-radiation recombination near the phase transition temperature of 340 K. Remarkably, the suitable detectable temperature, narrow response window, high sensitivity, and good cyclability of this PL temporary quenching will endow encryption applications with high concealment, operational flexibility, durability, and commercial popularization. Profited from these attributes, a fire-new optical encryption model is devised to demonstrate high confidential information security. This unprecedented optical effect would provide new insights and paradigms for the development of luminescent materials to enlighten future information encryption.

Abstract
Organic-inorganic hybrid perovskites (OIHPs) with dielectric switching functions have aroused comprehensive scientific interest, benefitting from their promising applications in sensors and information storage. However, to date, most of these materials discovered thus far possess a single function and are limited in their applicability, failing to meet the requirements of diverse applications. Moreover, the discovery of these materials has been largely serendipitous. Building multifunctional OIHPs with dielectric switching and semiconductors remains a daunting task. In this context, by introducing [C7H16N]+ as cations and in combination with lead halide with semiconducting properties, two OIHPs [C7H16N]PbI3 (1) and [C7H16N]PbBr3 (2) ([C7H16N]+ = (cyclopropylmethyl) trimethylammonium) have been successfully designed. They have dielectric switching properties close to 253 and 279 K and semiconducting behavior with band gaps of 2.67 and 3.22 eV. The phase transition temperature increased by 26 K through halogen substitution. In summary, our findings in this study provide insights into the application of the halogen substitution regulation strategy and open up new possibilities for designing perovskite semiconductors with dielectric switching functionality.

Abstract
As an innovative form of stimulus-response materials, organic-inorganic hybrid phase transition materials have become a wonderful contender in the field of functional electronic equipment due to their versatile structure, intensive functions and straightforward preparation. However, the targeted regulation and optimization of the electrical/optical response, along with the establishment of regular structure-performance relationships, pose significant challenges in meeting the diverse demands of practical applications over an extended period. Herein, we conducted a systematic investigation into the role of lattice void occupancy in regulating phase transition temperature (Tp) and related optical/electrical bistability. By taking hybrid material [TMEA][Cd(SCN)3] featuring a flexible ammonium cation [TMEA]+ (TMEA = ethyltrimethylammonium) as the prototype, we successfully synthesized three phase transition materials, namely [DEDMA][Cd(SCN)3], [TEMA][Cd(SCN)3] and [TEA][Cd(SCN)3] (DEDMA = diethyldimethylammonium, TEMA = triethylmethylammonium, and TEA = tetraethylammonium), and the excellent regulation of the physical properties of these compounds was achieved through subtle engineering of void occupancy. More strikingly, [TEA][Cd(SCN)3] exhibits remarkable bistable properties in terms of dielectric and nonlinear optical responses (with second-harmonic generation intensity reaching 2.5 times that of KDP). This work provides a feasible avenue to reasonably customise organic-inorganic hybrid phase transition materials and finely adjust their intriguing functionalities.

Abstract
Organic-inorganic hybrid lead halide perovskites (OLHPs), represented by (CH3 NH3 )PbI3 , are one of the research focus due to their exceptional performance in optoelectronic applications, and ferroelastic domain walls are benign to their charge carrier transport that is confirmed recently. Among them, the 1D OLHPs feature better stability against desorption and moisture, but related 1D ones possessing ferroelasticity are rarely investigated and reported so far. In this work, the 1D ferroelastic semiconductor (N-iodomethyl-N-methyl-morpholinium)PbI3 ((IDMML)PbI3 ) is prepared successfully by introducing successively halogenate atoms from Cl, Br to I into the organic cation of the prototype (N,N-dimethylmorpholinium)PbI3 ((DMML)PbI3 ). Notably, (IDMML)PbI3 shows the narrow bandgap energy (≈2.34 eV) according to the ultraviolet-visible absorption spectrum and the theoretical calculation, and possesses the evident photoconductive characteristic with the on/off ratio of current of ≈50 under the 405 nm light irradiation. This work provides a new case for the ferroelastic OLHPs and will inspire intriguing research in the field of optoelectronic.

Abstract
Construction of ferroelectric and optimization of macroscopic polarization has attracted tremendous attention for next generation light weight and flexible devices, which brings fundamental vitality for molecular ferroelectrics. However, effective molecular tailoring toward cations makes ferroelectric synthesis and modification relatively elaborate. Here, the study proposes a facile method to realize triggering and optimization of ferroelectricity. The experimental and theoretical investigation reveals that orientation and alignment of polar cations, dominated factors in molecular ferroelectrics, can be controlled by easily processed anionic modification. In one respect, ferroelectricity is induced by strengthened intermolecular interaction. Moreover, ≈50% of microscopic polarization enhancement (from 8.07 to 11.68 µC cm-2 ) and doubling of equivalent polarization direction (from 4 to 8) are realized in resultant ferroelectric FEtQ2ZnBrI3 (FEQZBI, FEtQ = N-fluoroethyl-quinuclidine). The work offers a totally novel platform for control of ferroelectricity in organic-inorganic hybrid ferroelectrics and a deep insight of structure-property correlations.

Abstract
The multifunctional tuning of solid-state dielectric switches constructed from organic-inorganic hybrid materials (OIHMs) has received great attention. In particular, molecular ferroelastics with dielectric phase transitions have considerable potential in the optical and electrical fields owing to their adjustable structures and physical features. However, it remains a challenge to effectively design ferroelastics with high phase transition temperature (Tc). We used [TTMA]2CdI4 (TTMA = tetramethylammonium, 1) as a template to continuously increase the molecular weight and change the structure of the hybrid material by modifying and extending the alkane chain in the cation. Therefore, a series of OIHMs were eventually developed: [TMEA]2CdI4 (TMEA = trimethylethylammonium, 2), [TMPA]2CdI4 (TMPA = trimethylpropylammonium, 3), and [TMIPA]2CdI4 (TMIPA = trimethyliso-propylammonium, 4). Among them, the Tc of ferroelastic 3 increased up to 387 K. DSC and temperature-related dielectric constant tests prove the occurrence of the phase transition for 1, 2, and 3. The structures further indicate that the phase transition is caused by the order-disorder cation motion. The extension of the alkyl chain greatly increases Tc and endows 3 with ferroelasticity at room temperature.

Abstract
Switchable materials have attracted enormous interest due to their promising applications in important fields such as sensing, electronic components, and information storage. Nevertheless, obtaining multifunctional switching materials is still a problem worth investigating. Herein, by incorporating (Rac-, L-, D-2-amino-1-propanol) as the templating cation, we have obtained (Rac-, L-, D-HTMPA)CdCl3 (HTMPA = 1-hydroxy-N, N, N-trimethyl-2-propanaminium). We have adopted a chiral chemistry strategy that causes (Rac-HTMPA)CdCl3 in the central symmetric space to crystallize in the chiral space group. Based on the modulation of the homochiral strategy, (L-, D-HTMPA)CdCl3 shows a dual phasic transition at 269 and 326 K and a switchable second-harmonic generation response. In addition, (L-, D-HTMPA)CdCl3 is chiral switchable material to exhibit stable dual dielectric and second-harmonic generation (SHG) switches. This work provides an approach to exploring multifunctional chiral switchable materials.

Abstract
Abundant chemical diversity and structural tunability make organic-inorganic hybrid perovskites (OIHPs) a rich ore for ferroelectrics. However, compared with their inorganic counterparts such as BaTiO3, their ferroelectric key properties, including large spontaneous polarization (Ps), low coercive field (Ec), and strong second harmonic generation (SHG) response, have long been great challenges, which hinder their commercial applications. Here, a quasi-one-dimensional OIHP DMAGeI3 (DMA = Dimethylamine) is reported, with notable ferroelectric attributes at room temperature: a large Ps of 24.14 μC/cm2 (on a par with BaTiO3), a low Ec below 2.2 kV/cm, and the strongest SHG intensity in OIHP family (about 12 times of KH2PO4 (KDP)). Revealed by the first-principles calculations, its large Ps originates from the synergistic effects of the stereochemically active 4s2 lone pair of Ge2+ and the ordering of organic cations, and its low kinetic energy barrier of small DMA cations results in a low Ec. Our work brings the comprehensive ferroelectric performances of OIHPs to a comparable level with commercial inorganic ferroelectric perovskites.

Abstract
Hybrid lead halide perovskites have received extensive scientific attention owing to their great potential in the field of fluorescent displays and light-emitting diodes. Currently, most luminescent materials contain functional molecular and rare-earth metal ion parts. However, the mechanism of photoluminescence property in two-dimensional hybrid lead halide perovskites with different layered inorganic skeletons has been reported rarely. To better understand the effect of an inorganic skeleton on the fluorescence property, here, we report three organic-inorganic hybrid materials with different layered inorganic frameworks: (MACH)2·PbBr4 (Prv-1, MACH = cyclohexylmethylammonium), (2-MPQ)·PbBr4 (Prv-2, 2-MPQ = 2-methylpiperazinium), and (TMBA)4·Pb3Br10 (Prv-3, TMBA = N'N'N'-trimethylbenzylammonium). Among them, Prv-1 is a (100)-oriented perovskite, Prv-2 belongs to the (110)-oriented perovskite, and the inorganic framework of Prv-3 possesses [Pb3Br10] units. Interestingly, Prv-1 has a strong blue-violet fluorescence emission, while the luminescence effect of Prv-2 is very weak; notably, Prv-3 emits a charming bright-orange light. Meanwhile, results of theoretical computational studies also reveal that the electronic structure of all three compounds is highly dependent on structurally distorted [PbBr6] octahedra, and the frontier molecular orbital (FMO) analysis further suggests that HOMO and LUMO of Prv-3 are contributed by inorganic and organic components, respectively. In addition, all three materials belong to direct band gap semiconductors, and the band gaps are 2.79, 2.97, and 2.76 eV, respectively. Significantly, there are obvious differences in conduction bands. Based on the above analysis, the photoluminescence mechanism of three hybrid materials is explained from the electronic levels. Consequentially, this work might provide practical strategies and perspectives for exploring novel structure-related properties.

Abstract
Organic-inorganic halide perovskites (OIHPs) are very eye-catching due to their chemical tunability and rich physical properties such as ferroelectricity, magnetism, photovoltaic properties and photoluminescence. However, no nickel-based OIHP ferroelectrics have been reported so far. Here, we designed an ABX3 OIHP ferroelectric (3-pyrrolinium)NiCl3, where the 3-pyrrolinium cations are located on the voids surrounded by one-dimensional chains composed of NiCl6-face-sharing octahedra via hydrogen bonding interactions. Such a unique structure enables the (3-pyrrolinium)NiCl3 with a high spontaneous polarization (P s) of 5.8 μC cm-2 and a high Curie temperature (T c) of 428 K, realizing dramatic enhancement of 112 and 52 K compared to its isostructural (3-pyrrolinium)MCl3 (M = Cd, Mn). To our knowledge, remarkably, (3-pyrrolinium)NiCl3 should be the first case of nickel(ii)-based OIHP ferroelectric to date, and its T c of 428 K (35 K above that of BaTiO3) is the highest among all reported one-dimensional OIHP ferroelectrics. This work offers a new structural building block for enriching the family of OIHP structures and will inspire the further exploration of new nickel(ii)-based OIHP ferroelectrics.

Abstract
Compared with uniaxial molecular ferroelectrics, multiaxial ferroelectrics have better application prospects because they are no longer subject to the single-crystal form and have been pursued in recent years. Halogen engineering refers to the adjustment of halogens in materials at the atomic level, which can not only explore multiaxial ferroelectrics but also help to improve piezoelectrics, recently. In this work, we successfully synthesized and characterized three multiaxial plastic ferroelectrics through the precise molecular design from I to Cl, confirming the increase of the number of polar axes of ferroelectrics from 3 to 6, the increase of second-harmonic generation density from 2.1 times to nearly 6 times of monopotassium phosphate, and the increase of piezoelectric coefficient by 140%. This systematic work has proved that halogen engineering can not only enrich the family of multiaxial plastic ferroelectrics but also promote the further development of nonlinear optical and piezoelectric materials.

Abstract
In order to meet the needs of social development, increasing research attention has been paid to multifunctional molecular-based phase-transition materials. The traditional phase-transition materials with a single functional property can be transformed into magnificent ones by adding additional functional properties-for instance photoluminescence and magnetic order- because having two or more functional properties simultaneously greatly broadens the fields of their applications. At present, there are very few multifunctional phase-transition materials showing excellent performance, and the crystal structure design and performance optimization of materials still need to be studied in depth. Herein, we report the development of two organic-inorganic hybrid materials: (MBA)2ZnI4 (1, MBA = 4-methoxybenzylammonium) with switchable dielectricity and a high phase-transition temperature (Tc = 359.55 K), and (MBA)2ZnBr4 (2) with green luminescence (λexc = 314 nm) and nonlinear optical properties (0.75× KDP). A two-dimensional (2D) fingerprint analysis of the Hirshfeld surface plots revealed a significant difference between the hydrogen-bonding interaction before the phase transition and that afterwards. The two compounds were further verified, from energy band structure calculations, to be direct-band-gap semiconductors. In conclusion, this work has provided a viable strategy, involving the application of chemical modifications, for designing various functional materials.

Abstract
Organic-inorganic Hybrid (OIH) materials for multifunctional switchable applications have attracted enormous attention in recent years due to their excellent optoelectronic properties and good structural tunability. However, it still remains challenging to fabricate one simple OIH compound with multi-functionals properties, such as dielectric switching, thermochromic properties, semiconductor characteristics and ferroelasticity. Under this context, we successfully synthesized [2-(2-fluorophenyl)ethan-1- ammonium]2 SnBr6 (compound 1), which has a higher phase transition temperature of 427.7 K. Additionally, it exhibits a semiconducting property with an indirect band gap of 2.36 eV. Combining ferroelastic, narrow band gap, thermochromic, and dielectric properties, compound 1 can be considered as a rarely reported multi-functional ferroelastic material, which is expected to give inspiration for broadening the applications in the smart devices field.

Abstract
Molecular ferroelectrics have gradually aroused great interest in both fundamental scientific research and technological applications because of their easy processing, light weight and mechanical flexibility. Hybrid organic-inorganic perovskite ferroelectrics (HOIPFs), as a class of molecule-based ferroelectrics, have diverse functionalities owing to their unique structure and have become a hot spot in molecular ferroelectrics research. Therefore, they are extremely attractive in the field of ferroelectrics. However, there seems to be a lack of systematic review of their design, performance and potential applications. Herein, we review the recent development of HOIPFs from lead-based, lead-free and metal-free perovskites, and outline the versatility of these ferroelectrics, including piezoelectricity for mechanical energy-harvesting and optoelectronic properties for photovoltaics and light detection. Furthermore, a perspective view of the challenges and future directions of HOIPFs is also highlighted.

Abstract
Organic-inorganic hybrid phase transition materials with switchable properties have important potential applications in smart devices such as dielectric switches and storage. Nevertheless, it remains challenging to modify molecular structures efficiently to obtain materials simultaneously possessing multiple responsive properties. Herein, different from ordinary halogen substitutions in Metal Halide, we report a halogen regulation design of organic molecular strategy: (ASD) 2 MnBr 4 (ASD=5-azonia-spiro [4.5] decane) to (CASD) 2 MnBr 4 (CASD=8-chloro-5-azonia-spiro [4.5] decane). After organic molecular halogen regulation, the SHG response was excited and the dielectric phase transition temperature ( T c ) has also been greatly improved. Furthermore, under the irradiation of UV lamp, both showed green light with quantum yields above 50%. This work is of great significance for further exploration of multifunctional molecular switch materials through halogen modification strategies.

Abstract
Lead-free Halides, especially Mn-based ones, are preferred as hotspots in the exploration of photoluminescent materials. However, there are few reports on sensitive reversible thermochromism and switchable dual emission originating from self-trapped exciton emission in pure Mn-Based materials. Here, we report a new Mn-based hybrid material [TMPA]2MnI4 (TMPA = trimethylphenylammonium), which shows two emission peaks at 545 and 660 nm benefitting from the d-d orbital transition of Mn2+ and the generation of self-trapped excitons, respectively. Due to the different sensitivity to temperature, the stages of thermal activation and thermal quenching of the two emission types are also inconsistent, showing a certain competition relationship and dominating the emission colors in different temperature ranges, resulting in adjustable green-orange-green thermochromic luminescence from 100 to 403 K (both high and low temperatures correspond to green, and orange is displayed at near room temperature). Therefore, thermochromic luminescence can be easily achieved by controlling the temperature under the guidance of excited states. This work provides new insights into the synthesis and application of thermochromic materials. Therefore, it is certain that regulating temperature while being guided by excited states will achieve thermochromic luminescence. This research offers fresh perspectives on the development and potential of thermochromic materials.

Abstract
Hybrid organic-inorganic perovskite (HOIP) have received tremendous scientific attention because of the phase transition and photovoltaic properties. However, achieving the special perovskite structure with both two-step dielectric response and luminescence characteristics is rarely reported. Herein, we report an organic-inorganic hybrid perovskite, [(BA)2 ⋅ PbI4 ] (Compound 1, BA=n-butylamine) by introducing flexible organic cations (HBA+ ), with direct mid-band gap as 2.28 eV. Interestingly, this material exhibits two-step reversible dielectric response at 350 K and 460 K (in heating process), respectively. Besides, the photoluminescence was found: it emits charming green light under 365 nm lamp (Photoluminescence quantum yield is 9.52 %). The outstanding two-step dielectric response and luminescence characteristics of this compound might pave the way for the application of dielectric and ferroelectric functional materials in temperature sensors and mechanical switches.

Abstract
Molecular ferroelastics have received particular attention for potential applications in mechanical switches, shape memory, energy conversion, information processing, and solar cells, by taking advantages of their low-cost, light-weight, easy preparation, and mechanical flexibility. The unique structures of organic-inorganic hybrid perovskites have been considered to be a design platform for symmetry-breaking-associated order-disorder in lattice, thereby possessing great potential for ferroelastic phase transition. Herein, we review the research progress of organic-inorganic hybrid perovskite ferroelastics in recent years, focusing on the crystal structures, dimensions, phase transitions and ferroelastic properties. In view of the few reports on molecular-based hybrid ferroelastics, we look forward to the structural design strategies of molecular ferroelastic materials, as well as the opportunities and challenges faced by molecular-based hybrid ferroelastic materials in the future. This review will have positive guiding significance for the synthesis and future exploration of organic-inorganic hybrid molecular ferroelastics.

Abstract
As a feasible lead-free scheme, organic-inorganic hybrid double perovskites show many excellent properties, including ferroelectricity, ferroelasticity, self-powered circularly polarized light detection and so on. In this work, the solid-to-solid structural phase transition of a two-dimensional hybrid double perovskite (CHA)4CuBiI8 was successfully activated via the dehydration of (CHA)4CuBiI8·H2O, which was proven by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and temperature-dependent dielectric measurements. Using variable-temperature single-crystal X-ray diffractometry, the cause behind the phase transition of (CHA)4CuBiI8 was determined to be the overall coordination of distortion and movement of the inorganic skeleton and thermal deformation of the cationic structure. In addition, the substance after dehydration shows good stability in multiple reversible switching during dielectric tests. The interesting dehydration-activated results of the material contribute towards a further expansion of the properties and potential application of hybrid double perovskites.

Abstract
Multifunctional switching materials show great potential for applications in sensors, smart switches, and other fields due to their ability to integrate different physical channels in one single device. However, multifunctional responsive materials with multiple switching and luminescence properties have rarely been reported. Here, we report three organic-inorganic hybrids: [TMAA]2[CoCl4] (compound 1), [TMAA]2[CdBr4] (compound 2) and [TMAA]2[MnCl4] (compound 3). Compound 1 and compound 2 undergo two reversible phase transitions at high temperature (328.95/359.25 K and 350.45/393.15 K, respectively). Since the inorganic skeleton has a strong influence on the luminescence properties of such structured substances, Cd and Co were replaced with Mn, after which compound 3 was obtained as expected. The above strategy triggered bright green luminescence with a quantum yield of 35.19%, and significantly increased the phase transition temperature of compound 3 to above 400 K. The above results show that the regulation of the inorganic skeleton provides a new strategy for researchers to develop dual phase change/luminous materials.

Abstract
Two-dimensional (2D) hybrid double perovskites have attracted extensive research interest for their fascinating physical properties, such as ferroelectricity, X-ray detection, light response and so on. In addition, ferroelastics, as an important branch of ferroic materials, exhibits wide prospects in mechanical switches, shape memory and templating electronic nanostructures. Here, we designed a 2D phase-transition double perovskite ferroelastic through a structurally progressive strategy. This evolution is core to our construction process from 0D to 1D and AgBi-based 2D. In this way, we successfully synthesized 2D lead-free ferroelastic (DPA)4AgBiBr8 (DPA = 2,2-dimethylpropan-1-aminium) with a high Curie temperature (Tc), which shows a narrower band gap than 0D (DPA)4Bi2Br10 and 1D (DPA)5Pb2Br9. Moreover, the mechanism of structural phase transition and molecular motion are fully characterized by temperature dependent solid-state NMR and single crystal XRD. (DPA)4AgBiBr8 injects power into the discovery of new ferroelastics or the construction and dimensional adjustment in new hybrid double perovskites. By using a lead-free AgBi-based scheme, we successfully synthesized a two-dimensional double perovskite ferroelastic (DPA)4AgBiBr8 with high Tc of 375 K and a narrow band gap of 2.44 eV, where DPA is 2,2-dimethylpropan-1-aminium.![]()

Abstract
Massive efforts have been devoted to designing molecular ferroic materials by molecular modification. For molecular ferroelastic, previous work is focused on the temperature-dependent ferroelastic domains, however, few are related to controlling the ferroelastic domain by the stress. Inspired by the "quasi-spherical theory" and fluorination effect, we designed a more flexible (MedabcoF)2+ (MedabcoF=1-fluoro-4-methyl-1,4-diazoniabicyclo[2.2.2]octane) cation by introducing a methyl group and a fluorine atom at the two symmetrical ends of the Dabco (1,4-diazoniabicyclo[2.2.2]octane) and synthesized a hybrid 3D perovskite (MedabcoF)Rb(BF4 )3 (1) which displays three reversible phase transitions accompanying dual ferroelastic behavior. Besides, it not only exhibits ferroelastic domains switching by the thermal stimulation, and the sensitive reaction of in situ domains under the stress of it is also realized. This work not only achieves a force-controlled ferroelastic domain but develops a more profound comprehension of the relationship between the thermal motion behavior of guest cations and the intriguing properties of materials.

Abstract
Solid-state molecular rotor-type materials such as host-guest inclusion compounds are very desirable for the construction of molecular ferroelectrics. However, they usually have a low Curie temperature (Tc) and uniaxial nature, severely hindering their practical applications. Herein, by regulating the anion to control "momentum matching" in the crystal structure, we successfully designed a high-temperature multiaxial host-guest inclusion ferroelectric [(MeO-C6H4-NH3)(18-crown-6)][TFSA] (MeO-C6H4-NH3 = 4-methoxyanilinium, TFSA = bis(trifluoromethanesulfonyl)ammonium) with the Aizu notation of mmmFm. Compared to the parent uniaxial ferroelectric [(MeO-C6H4-NH3)(18-crown-6)][BF4] with a Tc of 127 K, the introduction of larger TFSA anions brings a lower crystal symmetry at room temperature and a higher energy barrier of molecular motions in phase transition, giving [(MeO-C6H4-NH3)(18-crown-6)][TFSA] multiaxial ferroelectricity and a high Tc up to 415 K (above that of BaTiO3). To our knowledge, such a record temperature enhancement of 288 K makes its Tc the highest among the reported crown-ether-based ferroelectrics, giving a wide working temperature range for applications in data storage, temperature sensing, actuation, and so on. This work will provide guidance and inspiration for designing high-Tc host-guest inclusion ferroelectrics.

Abstract
The strict tolerance space of three-dimensional (3D) crystalline structures is still a significant challenge in the area of switching dielectrics in comparison with lower-dimensional structures. Generally, the function of crystalline materials can be given or adjusted by controlling the environment in which synthesis takes place or the packing rearrangement. Using this method, special functional enhancements or changes in the dielectrics can be realized by improving the synthetic strategies. Here, a 3D switchable dielectric compound [MeHdabco]K(BF4)3 was achieved by employing the temperature selective effect. In particular, its structure is completely different from the usual 3D perovskite structure, which is constructed using two different cation-template frameworks. Moreover, the 3D [MeHdabco]K(BF4)3 shows a structural phase transition at 358 K. The thermal analysis (differential scanning calorimetry (DSC)) and X-ray diffractometry results provided evidence of these phase changes. This work provides a feasible strategy that can be used to achieve the different structures of an 'isomer', and enrich the method used for designing diverse functional materials.

Abstract
Molecular phase transition compounds have become a hot research area in recent years because of their potential as functional materials, such as ferroelectrics, ferroelastics, dielectric switches, etc. However, materials combining switchable dielectric properties and ferroelasticity are still rare. Here, we reported an organic-inorganic hybrid perovskite, [CPtmp][Cd(SCN)3] (1) ([CPtmp]+ is a cyclopentyltrimethylphosphonium cation), with a potential ferroelastic property. This material undergoes three structural phase transitions at 247/226, 335/312, and 349/341 K (upon heating/cooling). The successive phase transitions are mainly caused by the stepwise ordering of [CPtmp]+ cations and the concomitant deformation of [Cd(SCN)3]- anionic chains revealed by structural analyses, which triggers the double-step dielectric switching in 1 as well. These results would inspire further exploration on molecular dielectric switches with ferroelastic properties.

Abstract
Phase transitions of hybrid materials have aroused widespread concern and call for an in-depth study on its structure design, because the structure and characteristics are closely related, which promote potential applications in the field of temperature sensors, dielectric switches, and actuators. However, designing materials with multiple phase transitions and a high phase transition temperature (Tr) remains a huge challenge. In order to deal with this key hurdle, we tried to regulate the structural components and successfully synthesized [MASD]2[CdCl4] (1, MASD = 8-methyl-5-azoniaspiro[4,5]decane), which displays multiple phase transitions occurring at 273.8 K and 395.9 K separately. The Tr has significantly increased compared with the parent compounds reported previously. As the temperature sensitivity of compound 1 is constant at different frequencies, it can be applied for detectors or sensors under frequency-independent or wide frequency conditions. Moreover, methylation design strategy evidently triggered the dual dielectric switch and improved the Tr, which opens a new path for finding and adjusting ideal materials of multiple phase transition.

A semiconductor material [(CH2)3NH2S]2BiCl5 (1) exhibits dielectric switching and Pd uptake functions. The thioether group in 1 provides an opportunity for Pd uptake. After 1 adsorbs Pd, the dielectric switching disappears, so that Pd adsorption can be monitored by dielectric measurements. Moreover, the material becomes an insulator after adsorbing Pd.

Abstract
Molecular perovskite materials have recently attracted extraordinary interest from the academic community owing to their excellent multifunctional properties. Nevertheless, although massive efforts have been made, molecular ferroelastics with three-dimensional (3D) perovskite structures are still rare. Herein, we report two 3D organic-inorganic hybrid perovskites [(2-hydroxy-propyl)-tripropyl-ammonium][Mn(dca)3] (1) and [(2-hydroxy-1-methyl-ethyl)-tripropyl-ammonium] [Mn(dca)3] (2) [dca = dicyanamide, N(CN)2]. The different position of the chiral center results in a tremendous difference in the properties. Compound 1 displays only one phase transition; however, intriguingly, 2 has three phase transitions and represents ferroelastic behavior with exceptional two-step switching of quadratic nonlinear optical (NLO) properties. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first molecular ferroelastic with two-step switching of quadratic NLO properties. The results demonstrate that the molecular chiral design works, and this finding opens up a new avenue to designing multifunctional molecular perovskite materials.

Abstract
In the last decade, hybrid materials have received widespread attention. In particular, hybrid lead halide perovskite-type semiconductors are very attractive owing to their great flexibility in band gap engineering. Here, by using precise molecular modifications, three one-dimensional perovskite-type semiconductor materials are designed and obtained: [Me3 PCH2 X][PbBr3 ] (X=H, F, and Cl for compounds 1, 2, and 3, respectively). The introduction of a heavier halogen atom (F or Cl) to [Me4 P]+ increases the potential energy barrier required for the tumbling motion of the cation, hence achieving the transformation of the phase transition temperature from low temperature (192 K) to room temperature (285 K) and high temperature (402.3 K). Moreover, the optical band gaps reveal a broadening trend with 3.176 eV, 3.215 eV, and 3.376 eV along the H→F→Cl series, which is attributed to the formation of the structural distortion.

Abstract
Dual phase transition/switch materials are a critical cornerstone of information storage and sensing. However, they are difficult to design successfully, and compared with materials showing single-switchable phase transitions, the dual ones retain many challenges by far. Therefore, the significance of a general strategy is far greater than an accidental success. Here, an efficient strategy combining branchlike Et3R and trunklike benzylamine analogues successfully validates dual-switch implementation in the dielectric materials. This inevitable success is based on our treelike analogue mentioned above in which amines with multiple branches can achieve a temperature-induced phase change. Exactly, (BCDA)2ZnBr4 [BCDA = benzyl-(2-chloroethyl)dimethylammonium] proves the regularity and undergoes two reversible phase transitions at 295.4 and 340.8 K, respectively. Variable-temperature single-crystal X-ray diffraction revealed that the generation of double phase transitions is caused by progressive changes of treelike BCDA+ as the temperature rises. Because the permittivity ε' of (BCDA)2ZnBr4 abruptly changed near the phase-transition temperatures, such physical properties make it have latent applicability. In short, the success of our strategy will inspire researches to discover more interesting dual phase transition/switch materials.

Abstract
Temperature-responsive materials with switching physical properties have been widely researched. Among them, the switchable dielectric perovskite materials show potential applications in the electrical and electronic industries and even the intelligence industries. However, perovskite oxides and hybrid organic-inorganic perovskites, as the most representative switchable dielectric materials, are limited by bad biocompatibility. Herein, we report temperature-dielectric-responsive metal-free perovskite (H2dabco)(NH4)[BF4]3 constructed by the strategy of substituting the B site in the general formula ABX3 (doubly protonated 1,4-diazabicyclo[2.2.2]octane = H2dabco). Meanwhile, structurally similar hybrid material (H2dabco)Rb[BF4]3 was designed as a control. They exhibit similar phase-transition characteristics and dielectric response behaviors around 333 K. More interestingly, the ordered-disordered transformation of their organic "spherical" cations (H2dabco) was deemed to produce their phase transitions and dielectric response switching. Given its ability to generate a dielectric response, (H2dabco)(NH4)[BF4]3 will show the potential application of metal-free perovskite in a future thermal sensing device.

Abstract
Materials with circularly polarized luminescence (CPL) activity have immense potential applications in molecular switches, optical sensors, information storage, asymmetric photosynthesis, 3D optical displays, biological probe, and spintronic devices. However, the achiral architectures of most of the luminophores severely limit their practical needs. Within this context, molecular ferroelectrics with striking chemical variability and structure-property flexibility bring light to the assembly of CPL-active ferroelectric materials. Herein, we report organic-inorganic perovskite enantiomorphic ferroelectrics, (R)- and (S)-3-(fluoropyrrolidinium)MnBr3, undergoing a 222F2-type ferroelectric phase transition at 273 K. Their mirror relationships are verified by both single-crystal X-ray diffraction and vibrational circular dichroism (VCD). Furthermore, the corresponding Cotton effect for two chiral crystals was captured by mirror CPL activity. This may be assigned to the inducing interaction between the achiral luminescent perovskite framework and chiral organic components. As far as we know, this is the first molecular ferroelectric with CPL activity. Accordingly, this will inspire intriguing research in molecular ferroelectrics with CPL activity and holds great potential for the development of new optoelectronic devices.
