The field of perovskite and perovskite-related materials has witnessed remarkable growth due to their exceptional optoelectronic properties, which have proven invaluable for applications in solar cells, photodetectors, LEDs, and other advanced optoelectronic devices. Recently, circularly polarized light sources have emerged as a significant area of interest, primarily due to their critical roles in advanced technologies such as quantum communication, 3D displays, bioimaging, and information encryption. Additionally, linearly polarized light sources have also garnered attention for their applications in areas like optical communication and display technologies. The inherent characteristics of perovskite and perovskite-related materials, including their tunable bandgap, superior fluorescence capabilities, and versatile structural properties, present new opportunities for developing highly efficient polarized light-emitting devices. However, a comprehensive understanding of the mechanisms behind both circular and linear polarization, effective control strategies, and their translation into practical device applications is still lacking.

This Research Topic aims to uncover the physical mechanisms that drive circularly and linearly polarized luminescence in perovskite and perovskite-related materials. It seeks to explore innovative strategies, such as the incorporation of chiral or anisotropic ligands, the modulation of nanostructures, and the design of heterostructures, to achieve enhanced polarization performance. Additionally, the goal is to develop prototype optoelectronic devices utilizing these principles, aiming to improve their performance in optical information processing, display technologies, and other advanced applications.

To gather further insights in the realm of polarized luminescence in perovskite and perovskite-related materials, we welcome articles addressing, but not limited to, the following themes:

• Design and synthesis of both organic-inorganic hybrid and all-inorganic perovskites, as well as perovskite-related materials, with chiral or anisotropic enhancements to promote circular or linear polarization.

• Characterization of luminescence using circular and linear polarization spectroscopy and its correlation with structural attributes, such as crystal symmetry, nanostructure morphology, and ligand interactions.

• Mechanistic studies combining experimental approaches with theoretical calculations to elucidate the underlying principles of polarized luminescence in these materials.

• Fabrication and demonstration of devices such as perovskite LEDs, photodetectors, and other optoelectronic devices that utilize circularly or linearly polarized light.

• Application potential in fields like information encryption, 3D displays, quantum optics, optical communication, and advanced display technologies.
