Chiral zero-dimensional hybrid metal halides (0D HMHs) could combine excellent optical properties and chirality, making them promising for circularly polarized luminescence (CPL). However, chiral 0D HMHs with efficient CPL have been rarely reported. Here, we propose an efficient strategy to achieve simultaneously high photoluminescence quantum yield (PLQY) and large dissymmetry factor (g ), by integrating achiral and chiral ligands into 0D HMHs. Specifically, three pairs of chiral 0D hybrid indium-antimony chlorides are synthesized by combing achiral guanidine with three types of chiral methylbenzylammonium-based derivatives as the organic cations. These chiral 0D HMHs exhibit near-unity PLQY and large g values up to around ±1×10 . The achiral guanidine ligand is not only essential to crystallize these hybrid indium-antimony chlorides to achieve near-unity PLQYs, but also greatly enhances the chirality induction from organic ligands to inorganic units in these 0D HMHs. Furthermore, the choice of different chiral ligands can modify the strength of hydrogen bonding interactions in these 0D HMHs, to maximize their g values. Overall, this study provides a robust way to realize efficient CPL in chiral HMHs, expanding their applications in chiroptical fields.
手性零维混合金属卤化物(0D HMHs)可以兼具优异的光学性质和手性,使其在圆偏振发光(CPL)方面具有广阔前景。然而,具有高效CPL的手性0D HMHs鲜有报道。在此,我们提出一种有效策略,通过将非手性和手性配体整合到0D HMHs中,同时实现高光致发光量子产率(PLQY)和大不对称因子(g)。具体而言,通过将非手性胍与三种手性甲基苄基铵基衍生物作为有机阳离子相结合,合成了三对手性0D混合铟 - 锑氯化物。这些手性0D HMHs表现出近乎单位的PLQY和高达约±1×10的大g值。非手性胍配体不仅对于使这些混合铟 - 锑氯化物结晶以实现近乎单位的PLQY至关重要,而且还极大地增强了这些0D HMHs中从有机配体到无机单元的手性诱导。此外,选择不同的手性配体可以改变这些0D HMHs中氢键相互作用的强度,以最大化它们的g值。总体而言,本研究提供了一种在 chiral HMHs中实现高效CPL的可靠方法,扩展了它们在旋光领域的应用。
