Low-dimensional halide perovskites for advanced electronics

Halide perovskites are gaining prominence as promising materials for future electronic applications, primarily due to their unique properties including long carrier diffusion lengths, tunable bandgap, facile synthesis, and cost efficiency. However, polycrystalline halide perovskite thin films, which have been widely studied to date, have significant drawbacks including uncontrollable grain boundaries and instability issues. Recently, low-dimensional halide perovskites (LD HPs) offer enhanced stability and adaptable morphologies, making them attractive candidates for next-generation electronics beyond optoelectronics. This review comprehensively explores recent advancements in LD HP-based electronics, covering structural characteristics, synthesis methods tailored to different dimensions, and diverse applications. Furthermore, the impressive performance demonstrated by LD HPs in electronic applications including resistive random-access memory, advanced transistors, and neuromorphic computing hardware is discussed. Finally, the review outlines the challenges and perspectives required to scale up LD HP-based advanced electronics for commercial production, offering valuable insights for researchers venturing into the realm of new materials for advanced electronics.
