Perovskites with the general chemical formula ABX3 can be categorized into oxides and halides depending on the nature of the X anion. 3D organic-inorganic halide perovskites are extensively studied in the context of solar cell and photo- and electro-luminescence applications due to their outstanding optoelectronic properties, while oxide perovskites have attracted a great deal of attention for their many interesting physical properties such as structural, electrical, magnetic, and magnetocaloric effects. More recently, 2D layered organic-inorganic hybrid (OIH) materials have emerged as a new class of materials with rich optoelectronic properties. They exhibit proven advantages over their 3D counterparts due to their large structural diversity and improved environmental stability against heat and moisture. 2D OIH materials have exhibited many interesting physical properties such as high exciton binding energies, intense photoluminescence, ferroelectricity, and chiro-optical properties.
