Cover Feature: Tuning Electronic and Structural Properties of Lead‐Free Metal Halide Perovskites: A Comparative Study of 2D Ruddlesden‐Popper and 3D Compositions (ChemPhysChem 16/2024)
The Cover Feature highlights the advancements in 2D Ruddlesden–Popper perovskites with alternative inorganic lattice compositions, focusing on Ge and Sn combined with Br or I. Using computational methods, the study investigates how smaller ionic radii and various BA spacer layers impact the energy gap and stability. These insights pave the way for sustainable materials that could replace lead in photovoltaic applications, showcasing the future of eco-friendly energy conversion.
