摘要

Layered hybrid organic–inorganic perovskites offer a unique platform to engineer thermal, mechanical, and spintronic properties through molecular design. This perspective highlights recent advances in characterizing and tuning thermal conductivity and elastic modulus in layered hybrid metal halide perovskites with emphasis on measurement methodologies and the interplay among molecular structure, dynamics, and materials properties. We discuss how organic cations in the perovskites modulate their thermal transport and mechanical behavior, and introduce the emergence of chiral phonons and the recently discovered chiral-phonon-activated spin Seebeck effect in them. These insights reveal pathways to decouple thermal and mechanical properties and enable spin functionality. We conclude by outlining future directions for advancing fundamental understandings and unlocking new functionalities in layered hybrid perovskites via molecular engineering.
