Preface

Hybrid organic–inorganic perovskites have attracted substantial interest during the past decade because of their chemical variability, structural diversity, and remarkable physical properties. However, to date, there has been no book that covers the synthesis, structures, and functionalities of these fascinating materials. This important book, by Wei Li, Alessandro Stroppa, Zhe-Ming Wang, and Song Gao, who are international leaders in the field, fills this gap by summarizing the recent advances in all the known 3D hybrid perovskite subclasses, which include halides, azides, formates, hypophosphites, dicyanamides, cyanides, dicyanometallates, and even some metal-free systems. It also presents a comprehensive account of their intriguing physical properties, including photovoltaic and optoelectronic properties, magnetism, dielectricity, ferroelectricity, ferroelasticity, and multiferroicity. Such a timely book will give readers a comprehensive summary of the currently known 3D hybrid perovskites and also illustrate the many opportunities that lie beyond the popular halide materials.
