Still, the detailed connection between material composition and optical activity remains to be fully understood. Here, we study the effect of halogen substitution on optical activity in the chiral hybrid perovskite (R, S, rac)- 3BrMBA2PbI4(1-x)Br4x. We find that an unusual sign-flip occurs in the circular dichroism (CD) spectrum as the optical gap blueshifts with increasing bromide content. We explain this observation by shifts in the energy level alignment caused by the halide substitution. We also observed an inverse relationship between CD intensity and the microstrain induced in the lattice for mixed-halide compositions, which we attribute to inhomogeneity in chirality transfer across the inorganic framework. Last but not least, transient Faraday rotation measurements reveal that the (R/S)-3BrMBA₂PbBr₄ system exhibits a significant spin lifetime even at room temperature, underscoring its potential for spintronic applications. date: 2025 id_scheme: DOI id_number: 10.11588/heidok.00036592 fp7_project_id: 852084 own_urn: urn:nbn:de:bsz:16-heidok-365924 language: eng bibsort: SOLHTALABNIMPACTOFHA full_text_status: public place_of_pub: Heidelberg related_url_url: https://pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/acs.jpcc.5c02987 citation: Solhtalab, Nasrin ; Liu, Shangpu ; Kepenekian, Mikaël ; Hoffmann, Lisa ; Gessner, Julia A. ; Fischer, Tobias ; Sandner, Daniel ; Shcherbakov, Andrii ; Zerhoch, Jonathan ; Bodnar, Stanislav ; Rominger, Frank ; Ballmann, Joachim ; Katan, Claudine ; Iglev, Hristo ; Deschler, Felix (2025) Impact of Halide Substitution in the Inorganic Framework on the Optical Activity of Chiral Metal-Halide Perovskites.
