[0002] Halide perovskites have attracted widespread attention from researchers due to their excellent physicochemical properties, and they have broad application prospects in optoelectronic devices such as lasers, sensors, solar cells, and photodetectors. Particularly ferroelectric halide perovskite materials exhibit high dielectric constants, strong polarization effects, and low operating voltages, making them promising for ferroelectric memories and sensors. Their advantage lies in their non-volatility, meaning that once information is written to them, the material retains the written state even without an external power source.

[0003] In recent years, germanium-based (Ge) hybrid perovskites have gained attention due to their low toxicity and stronger polarizability. 2 The increasingly diverse structures and properties associated with lone-pair electrons have attracted widespread attention from researchers. In particular, Ge... 2+ 4s 2 The strong stereochemical expression of lone pairs of electrons leads to large octahedral distortions, resulting in strong second harmonics and large polarization in germanium-based perovskites.
