Abstract
Abstract Two‐dimensional (2D) organic‐inorganic hybrid perovskites (OHPs) have been gaining more and more attention for their unique optical, electrical and magnetic behaviors. Herein, we report a multifunctional quasi‐2D hybrid perovskite, 1, 6‐hexanediammonium tetrachlorocuprate ((1, 6‐HDA)CuCl 4 ), which exhibit reversible thermochromic behavior, temperature‐dependent conductivity and ferromagnetism. Changing temperature results in the reversible color change of (1, 6‐HDA)CuCl 4 between yellow and brown. A screen‐printing ink is prepared by using (1, 6‐HDA)CuCl 4 and used to print thermochromic patterns. The reversible thermochromism originates from the CuCl 6 octahedron distortions and lattice expansion in the crystal structure. The conductivity varies more than two orders of magnitude upon temperature change. (1, 6‐HDA)CuCl 4 also shows ferromagnetic property with Curie temperatures around 12 K.
