THz‐Driven Coherent Phonon Fingerprints of Hidden Symmetry Breaking in 2D Layered Hybrid Perovskites

Advanced Materials, Volume 38, Issue 4, 16 January 2026.
Intense THz pulses are employed to drive coherent phonons in 2D Ruddlesden‐Popper hybrid metal‐halide perovskites (HOIPs) from the (PEA)2(MA)n‐1PbnI3n+1 family, revealing mode‐selective spectroscopic signatures of inversion symmetry breaking in those nominally centrosymmetric materials. These findings provide a handle to decode nonlinear phonon driving
