Abstract

AbstractGe‐based hybrid perovskite materials have demonstrated great potential for second harmonic generation (SHG) due to the geometry and lone‐pair induced non‐centrosymmetric structures. Here, we report a new family of hybrid 3D Ge‐based bromide perovskitesAGeBr3,A=CH3NH3(MA), CH(NH2)2(FA), Cs and FAGe0.5Sn0.5Br3, crystallizing in polar space groups. These compounds exhibit tunable SHG responses, where MAGeBr3shows the strongest SHG intensity (5×potassium dihydrogen phosphate, KDP). Structural and theoretical analysis indicate the high SHG efficiency is attributed to the displacement of Ge2+along [111] direction and the relatively strong interactions between lone pair electrons of Ge2+and polar MA cations along thec‐axis. This work provides new structural insights for designing and fine‐tuning the SHG properties in hybrid metal halide materials.
