Three-dimensional lead halide perovskites (3D LHPs) exhibit giant Rashba spin-orbit coupling (SOC) due to their inherent lattice asymmetry and heavy-metal composition; yet, the impact of Rashba SOC on the luminescence dynamic of 3D LHPs remains debated. Here, we utilize the magneto-photoluminescence (Magneto-PL) effects as an effective tool to reveal the underlying spin-related opto-physical process in 3D LHPs. We find that the magneto-PL effects of 3D LHPs CH3NH3Pb(Br/I/IxCl1-x)3 thin films are negative and tunable at room temperature, indicating the remarkable suppression of their PL emission intensity by magnetic fields. Moreover, the largest magneto-PL magnitude of -3.60% is realized in CH3NH3PbIxCl3-x thin film at a magnetic field strength of ±1 T; oppositely, in CH3NH3PbI3 thin film, it is merely -0.75%. Combining magneto-optical spectroscopy and crystallographic analysis of 3D LHP thin films, we attribute this phenomenon to the interplay of the Rashba SOC-driven spin mixing and Zeeman splitting between dark singlet and bright triplet excitons, promoting spin conversion from dark excitonic states to bright states. In addition, we demonstrate that the Rashba SOC is tunable and has a direct relationship with the crystalline phase transition and grain size by modifying halide-components, which leads to the halide-components dependent magneto-PL effects in 3D LHP thin films. This work paves the way for improving the luminescence property of opto-spintronics materials via modulating Rashba SOC.

The separation and propagation of spin are vital to understanding spin-orbit coupling (SOC) in quantum systems. Exciton-polaritons, hybrid light-matter quasiparticles, offer a promising platform for investigating SOC in quantum fluids. By utilization of the optical anisotropy of materials, Rashba-Dresselhaus SOC (RDSOC) can be generated, enabling robust polariton spin transport.

Monolayer Janus transition-metal dichalcogenides possess Ising- and Rashba-type spin-orbit-couplings (SOC), leading to intriguing spin splitting effects at K and K', and around Γ points across the wide energy range. Using first-principles calculations, we unveil these SOC characteristics in metallic Janus NbSSe and demonstrate its potential for optically controlled spin current generation. On the basis of the symmetry of the system, we show that different linear polarized light can selectively drive spin currents of distinct spin components.

Tuning the exciton fine structure of lead halide perovskites to brighten the dark excitonic ground state is crucial for enhancing their optoelectronic performance. While Rashba splitting is linked to dark-to-light exciton flipping, the specific nature of this phenomenon remains unclear. Here, we systematically studied 18 CsPbBr structures, representing 2D systems of CsPbBr with varying degrees of distortion, using density functional theory (DFT) and the Model-Bethe-Salpeter Equation (m-BSE).

Chiral hybrid organic-inorganic semiconductors (CHOIS), which integrate chiral organic cations by hydrogen-bonding interactions with anionic metal halide subunits, have recently emerged as cutting-edge materials with the potential to revolutionize energy-efficient information processing, particularly in the realms of spintronics. By harnessing the inherent chirality of organic cations, CHOIS can effectively manipulate spin dynamics, a crucial factor for enhancing the device performance in next-generation electronics. However, the challenge lies in the limited understanding of structure-property relationships, which hinders the ability to control and fine-tune the chirality within these materials.
