Ferroelectric Properties and Applications of Hybrid Organic-Inorganic Perovskites

摘要

Hybrid organic-inorganic perovskites （e.g. CH3NH3PbI3） have attracted tremendous attention due to their promise for achieving next-generation cost-effective and high performance optoelectronic devices.These hybrid organic-inorganic perovskites possess excellent optical and electronic properties, including strong light absorption, high carrier abilities, optimized charge diffusion lengths, and reduced charge recombination etc., leading to their widespread applications in advanced solar energy technologies （e.g.high efficiency perovskite solar cells）. However, there is still a lack of investigations regarding fundamental properties such as ferroelectricity in these perovskites.As conventional ferroelectric ceramics are prepared at high temperature and have no mechanically flexibility,low-temperature proceed and flexible perovskite ferroelectrics have become promising candidates and should be exploited for future flexible ferroelectric applications. Here, ferroelectric properties in hybrid organic-inorganic perovskites and several state-of-the-art perovskite ferroelectrics are reviewed. Novel ferroelectric applications of hybrid organic-inorganic perovskites are discussed as well, providing guideline for realizing future high performance and flexible ferroelectric devices.
