Elucidating the origin of chiroptical activity in chiral 2D perovskites through nano-confined growth.

ABSTRACT: Chiral perovskites are being extensively studied as a promising candidate for spintronic- and polarization-based optoelectronic devices due to their interesting spin-polarization properties. However, the origin of chiroptical activity in chiral perovskites is still unknown, as the chirality transfer mechanism has been rarely explored. Here, through the nano-confined growth of chiral perovskites (MBA₂PbI_4(1-x)Br_4x), we verified that the asymmetric hydrogen-bonding interaction between chiral molecular spacers and the inorganic framework plays a key role in promoting the chiroptical activity of chiral perovskites. Based on this understanding, we observed remarkable asymmetry behavior (absorption dissymmetry of 2.0 × 10^-3 and anisotropy factor of pho
