Lead-free organic–inorganic hybrid semiconductors and NLO switches tuned by dimensional design

Two organic–inorganic hybrid materials exhibit functional regulation by introducing homochiral cations and different reagent ratios.

All-in-one: a new approach toward robust and solution-processable copper halide hybrid semiconductors by integrating covalent, coordinate and ionic bonds in their structures

This Perspective features the newly emerged AIO-type Cu(i)X-based hybrid semiconductors and showcases their structural diversity, solution-processability, framework stability, important photophysical properties and related potential applications.
