  1. The temperature dependence (1.7 K < T < 100 K) of emission decay is reported for the first time for a type of di-nuclear Pt complex featuring a metal–metal-to-ligand charge transfer (MMLCT) lowest energy transition that arises from a strong Pt–Pt interaction. The effect of local variation of the host/guest cage in a polymer matrix upon the phosphorescence decay time constants is characterized by the Kohlrausch–Williams–Watts function. The temperature dependence of the average decay time constants is fit by a Boltzmann-type expression to obtain the average zero-field splittings and individual sublevel decay rates of the photoluminescent triplet excited state.

  2. Abstract Lead halide perovskites (LHPs), have attracted considerable attention across various applications owing to their exceptional optoelectronic properties. However, the main challenge hindering the broad adoption of lead halide perovskites lies in their stability and toxicity. In this review, we summarize the outstanding properties of platinum (Pt) halide perovskites, with a particular focus on the stability and applications of Cs2PtI6and its derivatives. Cs2PtI6has shown promising efficiency for photovoltaic devices, as well as photoelectrochemical water splitting with stable behavior in acid or basic conditions. Cs2PtI6also shows promise in gas sensing and thermoelectric devices. The emergence of 2D Pt (II) halide perovskites opens up new avenues for environmentally friendly materials for photonic and optoelectronic devices like room temperature phosphoresce and triplet‐triplet annihilation (TTA) based up‐conversion. image
