Impact of Chiral Spinterfaces on Magneto-Photoluminescence Effects for Chiral Lead Halide Perovskites

Chiral lead halide perovskites (LHPs) have been widely investigated in chiroptical spintronics due to their significant Rashba spin–orbit coupling (SOC) and chiral-induced spin selectivity (CISS). Ferromagnet/LHP spinterface stems from the orbital hybridization at the interface of the ferromagnet and the nonmagnetic semiconductor, where interfacial density of state is spin-dependent. By far, the impact of the ferromagnet/chiral LHP spinterface on magneto-photoluminescence (Magneto-PL) of chiral LHPs remains unknown. In this work, we find that the negative and tunable Magneto-PL effects for the pristine LHP bulk film can be drastically enhanced by incorporating ferromagnetic/chiral LHP interfaces. A large Magneto-PL magnitude can reach approximately −13% for the Ni/( S -MBA) 2 PbI 4 interface at the field strengths of ±900 mT. With the assistance of circularly polarized PL spectra, anisotropic magneto-resistance, and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy measurements, we demonstrate that the ferromagnet/chiral LHP interfaces are chirality/spin-dependent and possess ferromagnetic property due to distinct magnetic switching behavior and electronic orbit coupling at interfaces, which boost the Rashba splitting and spin mixing. The comprehensive effects of Rashba-induced exciton states and chiral-induced SOC at chiral spinterfaces with CISS are responsible for the enhanced Magneto-PL of Ni/( R / S -MBA) 2 PbI 4 . It is postulated that the chiral spinterfaces play a dominant role for achieving large and tunable magneto-optical effect of chiral LHPs. This work paves the way for chiroptical spintronic applications.
